    Guys… I decided to watch Borderlands just to see how bad it was. It’s so very very bad.

    Five minutes in it was already a train wreck. Virtually EVERY role was miscast (or if I’ve been very generous, given bad direction). Most of the acting was so bad I thought Kevin Hart did a GREAT JOB! Half the soundtrack felt like it was pulled from Tony Hawk Pro Skater.

    They re-wrote so much of the story and so many of the characters it was like why even bother getting the IP in the first place?

    And the BIG TWIST was that Lilith was a Siren. You know, something that is absolutely no secret to anyone who’s ever played ANY of the Borderlands games.

    I’m just so absolutely dumbfounded how they could think that any of this was good. But sure, blame it on the “cult game” that’s sold over 77 million copies and had TWO successful game releases after you announced your movie.
