Is The Borderlands Movie Really THAT Bad?
Get ready for a brutal dose of bad movie news because the "Borderlands" Movie starring Cate Blanchett didn't do so well! It totally tanked!
How Bad is the Rotten Tomatoes Score?
Remember Rotten Tomatoes - where you can see if a movie is a total winner or if it's a major flop! "Borderlands" didn't make it to the winners’ club at all! It hit an all-time low - with a Rotten Tomatoes Score of only 9%! The score means that people were not a huge fan, and that it really made the movie a complete disappointment.
Who Are The Worst Off?
- It actually makes this movie super notable - a bunch of actors, directors, producers, and other peeps got hit with record low ratings. That means it might be the lowest rated movie ever for them!
- If you were ever a fan of Cate Blanchett and thought it might be a great movie with her involved - sadly, this was not the best choice. This is her worst movie. You can definitely say it’s a new low for this super awesome actress.
- Even if it had those amazing action scenes and those characters from a very popular video game, “Borderlands” did not win over the critics. This has a lot of talent involved - people are wondering why it went down like this!
What is "Borderlands" About?
- The movie, based on a popular video game series called “Borderlands” was supposed to be a huge success! Eli Roth - the director, is super popular too. But he's got this new record low, too!
- The crazy part - even those who helped out in those reshoots (Tim Miller), that guy with the Deadpool fame, also suffered! He hasn't ever had a bad movie!
- But the film itself might be interesting, too. You've got these video game vibes, an intense movie adaptation of the source material - lots of exciting elements, and you also get to see the unique take that the filmmakers took! This could also help you understand how a video game adaptation can go totally off-the-rails.
I get it, everyone had big expectations for the “Borderlands” movie but it looks like it’s definitely one of the worst movies of this year - and maybe even the worst ever! We might have to skip this one!
But it’s a good reminder that even super famous people and those super famous productions can be totally surprising! It doesn’t mean we won’t check out any new movies with those awesome people. But we gotta be careful what we're getting into. Those Video Game adaptations don’t always pan out!
