Following the disappointing premiere of the Borderlands movie, directed by Eli Roth, it faced criticism from both reviewers and viewers. The film struggled at the box office and received a wave of negative feedback online. Notably, Uwe Boll, a controversial director known for his provocative statements, claimed he could have done a better job.
Sharing data from IGN, Boll highlighted that the film only made $8.8 million in its opening weekend against a $115 million budget. Mockingly, he pointed out that his R-rated films had outperformed this. However, his claims were quickly debunked by statistics showing his previous works’ earnings.
Uwe Boll has a reputation for directing poorly received video game adaptations, including infamous titles like Postal and Far Cry. Despite his films achieving cult status, they often fell short critically. His remarks on the Borderlands movie may not sit well with the production team.
It seems that the creators of the Borderlands film have an additional challenge to overcome amidst the negative reception and comparisons to Boll’s past projects.
