'Unfunny'
Paramount's Halo series finally has legitimate competition for "Worst Video Game Adaptation" with #Borderlands
It's hollow, unfunny, directionless, and nothing more than a recycled "action comedy" flick wearing a Borderlands skinsuit.
There's legitimately nothing redeeming… pic.twitter.com/hWLv2sd5ir

'Joyless'
#Borderlands misunderstands the games, their humor, and what makes them fun, delivering a joyless film that takes itself far too seriously (yet it's still PG-13). It's a good replication of the look of the games but it misunderstands their spirit, a 100 minute cutscene. pic.twitter.com/l9DvDBAls5

'Waste of Talent'
#Borderlands is everything wrong with blockbuster IP filmmaking. Generic, lifeless, and a complete waste of talent. In a time where Fallout and The Last of Us have picture perfect live-action adaptations, this ended up as an absolute disservice to fans with Eli Roth at the helm pic.twitter.com/9WGKzwz7RZ

'Soulless'
Every once in a while my morbid curiosity gets the better of me & I end up staring in confusion at a large screen, wondering what poor decisions led me to such a towering monument to all that is unholy and soulless in Hollywood.

'Worst Movie'
BORDERLANDS is the worst movie I’ve seen this year. There is no heart or emotion in a lackluster script based off a video game. Some humor from Jack Black. Not even Cate Blanchett or Jamie Lee Curtis can save this. Too many ideas and all over the place. 3/10 #review #borderlands pic.twitter.com/tZ3TmRGzYm
