My watch history
Borderlands
I can’t believe how offensively bad this is. I thought maybe all the other reviews just hadn’t played the games and there’d be some kind of redemption. But no.
So it’s the Borderlands universe, and Borderlands characters, but with barely any resemblance to their namesakes other than their outfits. Also for some reason all the female characters except Tina have aged 20 years?
The plot is basically non-existent, the humour from Borderlands is AWOL, character personalities are flatter than a pancake, and the CGI just has a weird uncanny valley effect for me.
It’s almost worth watching just to see how unbelievably bad it is.
