Borderlands: The Movie

 

Cate Blanchett, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Black (voicing Claptrap), Kevin Hart, Florian Munteanu (Krieg), and Ariana Greenblatt as Tiny Tina.

If the core cast list hasn't already sold you on this epic video game inspired anti-heroes journey, I don't know what will. Saw This film today in theaters. See it in a theater. It really benefits from the big screen.

The acting is so good that I forget green screens and CGI were involved. Not gonna lie, the start of the movie is rough. So rough I almost bailed on it. But I paid money so I stuck it out. The final scenes were well worth the struggle to get there.

This movie will most likely appeal to any '90's kid that grew up on video games and comics. the biggest mistake was having Jack Black underutilized. It would have been better to let him be him but robotic.

So to recap: first 1/3 to 1/2 is a slog, final scene worth it, needs big screen.
