    Cate Blanchett running around shooting things and Gina Gershon playing mad Moxxi should be a small dunk for several specific demographics and idk how they could fuck that up.

      I've only seen a few clips but I gotta be honest seeing a 55 year old woman playing a 20-something character felt weird as hell. Does it take place decades after the game or something?

        it's weird but aging male action stars have been doing it for decades so i'm kinda "sure whatever score one for liberal feminism" about it

        Nope, it's an original story taking place with the characters and has no bearing on the games whatsoever aside from that

    Probably too early for anyone to write, produce, and release a video on unless they're going for the freeze-gamer "it's woke" pronounjak-rage route

    It very much feels like the film was Eli Roth trying to do an ultraviolent action movie, but had it pared down to a bad Guardians of the Galaxy rip-off

    It's a fucking Borderlands movie in 2024, literally 12 years after borderlands 2, what even is there to say about it

    I don't know. Usually redlettermedia covers movies like that. Maybe they will. Or esteemed critic gregg turkington can. I'm waiting for his rating.
