      Fair question. Also, why do I already know that Kevin Hart’s character in this movie will be indistinguishable from Kevin Hart in any other movie?

    Probably because I didn’t even realize this existed until just now. Same thing with the BioShock movie that I’m sure a lot of you only just now learned about because of this comment. If I knew it even existed or was even being made I’d be totally down to see it even if it’s awful. That just sounds like a marketing failure to me.

      I did hear that borderlands was being made into a movie but had no idea it was already out. And you are correct this is the first I am hearing about a BioShock movie. Marketing failures indeed.

        Directing failure it sounds like too. Who saw the fandom around borderlands and thought that that cast would hype the fans.

        I like all the actresses and actors but they just seemed like a poor fit for the story.

    Cate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis would have made this a maybe, but Kevin Hart as Roland?

    Hard pass.

    I might go, but only because I subscribe to a movie ticket club and have a few tickets in my bank.
