We\u2019re less than a day away from the premiere of the Borderlands <\/em>movie based on the violent, treasure-hunting comedy adventure games from Gearbox Software. Unfortunately, the vast majority of its reviews are wishing it never went beyond its gaming phase.<\/p>\n Rotten Tomatoes rounded up 34 reviews of Eli Roth\u2019s adaptation of the Borderlands games and so far, it\u2019s earned a freshness rating of 3 percent<\/a>. Only one of the included critics have given the movie a positive review.<\/p>\n So what are the rest of the critics actually saying about this movie? Well, their words are unkind and that\u2019s being generous.<\/p>\n \u201c…a quick internet search of images from Borderlands <\/em>games yields better-rendered results.\u201d – Bob Strauss, The San Francisco Chronicle<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…a horrendous waste of time, talent and pixels.\u201d – David Fear, Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…monotonous\u2026\u201d – Nick Schager, The Daily Beast<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…a cheap knockoff\u2026\u201d – Jake Kleinman, Inverse<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…the definitive worst film of Roth\u2019s career\u2026\u201d Alison Foreman, IndieWire<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…one of the worst big-budget movies I\u2019ve seen in a while.\u201d – Chris Bumbray, JoBlo <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n \u201c…clunky direction…lifeless\u2026cringeworthy attempts at witty quips\u2026\u201d Billie Melissa, Men\u2019s Journal<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n So there you go. It\u2019s settled. If you\u2019re itching for a grown-up action comedy based on a satiric adventure franchise that mocks the very medium in which it exists, just go see Deadpool & Wolverine<\/em><\/a> again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
