I have the same feeling after watching this, as I did the Mario movie and the Angry Birds before that..
I’m going to remain skeptical, but somewhat optimistic that this will be relatively watchable and hopefully not a complete dumpster fire like Borderlands..
Is it really THAT bad Borderlands? I didn't watch it yet, but looks somewhat good.. characters aside, they're BAD
It really depends on where you draw the line e in the sand, I suppose?
If you’re not too heavily invested in the game series (so you’re willing to accept retcons/story divergence), and are able to switch your brain off for ~100 minutes you’ve got a decent enough chance that you probably won’t hate it.
More than anything, it just has a lot more in common with the ‘bad old days’ of video game adaptations (live action Mario Bros., anything Uwe Boll touched), than the newer crop of more faithful/reverent adaptations (Sonic, animated Mario etc.).
The live action Super Mario Bros. was great, this is a hill I will die on.
Ill give you this; it was so bad that it looped all the way around and ended up good despite literally everything.
I definitely enjoyed the hell out of it as a kid, but let’s not pretend that it was anything approaching a faithful adaptation.
