    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

The Borderlands movie tried to split the difference between a PG-13 rating and original story appealing to a more general audience. But they were not interested

I don’t dislike Kevin Hart when he’s appropriate for the role. But Roland is not a role that Kevin Hart should play. Unless he was going to perform differently than every other role I’ve seen him in, he’s not the right fit.

He would also have to grow like >20cm and get a lot more muscular.

He did perform it differently and it lacks everything that makes Kevin Hart a decent watch.

But, honestly, not the worst part of the movie.

Imagine a neapolitan ice cream. You've got three flavors, strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. So you dig in and find out that it's dyed shit. Pink shit, white shit, and... Brown shit. It's all shit, right?

Kidding, the script and directing was the worst. Each individual actor could not be the worst because the writing and directing were all of them. All three flavors of shit.
