In fact, on Rotten Tomatoes, Borderlands started with a 0% rating.. Right now it’s already up to 3%, which isn’t much. Still, it’s clear that we’re dealing with a terrible video game adaptation and one of the worst productions of 2024. User ratings on this site haven’t opened yet, but that’s what social media is for.
Through various posts, fans strongly criticize this creation by Eli Roth. In fact, they blame the director for several of the decisions that ruined the film. Among them is the fact that the ratings are more open, which has taken away space from the violence and euphemism-filled humor of the games. In addition, they compare it unfavorably with Guardians of the Galaxydue to its color palette and soundtrack. Some call it a bad copy.

What went wrong with Borderlands?
The adaptation of Borderlands had quite a few problems before reaching the big screen. In fact, after finishing photography, the producers ordered extensive reshoots to change its story. As if that were not enough, these came with a change of director because Eli Roth had prior commitments that prevented him from returning.
The film’s script is also said to have been greatly altered from what was initially planned. In fact the original was written by Craig Mazin, who worked on the series Chernobyl and The Last of Us. However, the changes to his story were so many that he eventually asked for his name to be removed from the credits. It seems that he was one of the first to see the disaster and decided to leave as soon as possible.
It could also be because Eli Roth doesn’t really have any experience with video game adaptations. Not to mention that his career is not full of successes, so to speak.. So give him the reins of Borderlands It must have been a factor in the fact that it failed to capture what made video games so beloved. Did you expect it to turn out so badly?
