Despite first-rate 4K technical merits and engaging cinematography, Borderlands struggles with a derivative plot and lackluster adaptation, making it ultimately skippable.

Borderlands' 4K UHD presentation boasts a vibrant Dolby Vision and HDR-enhanced palette, with razor-sharp detail and inky black levels. Despite some inconsistent CGI moments and noticeable reshoot scenes that affect depth, the overall HEVC/H.265 encoded 2160p transfer remains visually stunning, capturing whimsical production design excellently.

Audio: 92

Borderlands dazzles with a dynamic Dolby Atmos track, delivering a fully immersive soundscape with engaging surround channel use and potent LFE bursts. Dialogue is clear while action sequences showcase striking spatial audio, making it a standout auditory experience.

Extra: 45

Borderlands' 4K UHD Blu-ray offers a robust 45-minute extras package showcasing the film's adaptation from game to screen. Engaging insights cover character introductions, stunts, weaponry, fashion, and VFX, though at times repetitive, yet these brief features exceed standard EPK content.

Movie: 43

Borderlands is a vibrant yet noisy spectacle lacking coherent storytelling and depth, marred by generic plotlines and studio interference, despite a strong cast including Cate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis. The film's 4K UHD presentation offers visual allure, but struggles with a disjointed narrative and uninspired direction.
