Borderlands
Had the opportunity to watch it early and boy did I regret accepting it. As a long-time fan of the *Borderlands* game series, I had high hopes for this movie adaptation. Unfortunately, it misses the mark in nearly every way. The plot is riddled with clichés, completely lacking the quirky, dark humor that made the games so unique. The characters feel like hollow imitations of their in-game counterparts, with little of the depth or charm that fans would expect.What's worse, the movie strays far from the source material in a way that feels disrespectful to the original story and its fans. The iconic chaotic energy and vibrant world-building of Pandora are replaced by generic action scenes and uninspired dialogue. Instead of feeling like an immersive dive into the *Borderlands* universe, this film comes off as a shallow, lazy cash grab that misses the essence of what made the games special.For true *Borderlands* fans, this adaptation is a major letdown. Save your time and revisit the games instead. If you want to a watch a good video adaptation watch Fallout or The last of us!
