Surely it can't be worse than Borderlands to name a recent piece of rubbish I saw, currently sat at 10% on rotten tomatoes
There is apparently an action scene in which ice cube needs a thumb drive, so orders one via Amazon drone delivery. The drone goes down in all the chaos, and our characters have to barter with the homeless man who found the downed drone by offering him Amazon gift cards. The man is a conspiracy nut who thinks the government is tracking him, but a $1000 Amazon gift cards convinces him to risk his life for the characters.
So yes, it is worse than Borderlands.
Your description is hilarious, but I'm guessing actually watching it is much less so.
Borderlands is Oscar material compared to this thing. I watched it thinking it couldn’t be that bad and it was worse than I thought an amateur movie could be.
oh borderlands was a masterpiece compared to this.
