    FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/borderline-review-samara-weaving-and-ray-nicholson-shine-in-a-familiar-yet-fun-thriller/ "Borderline works within its own ambitions, without grand aspirations beyond delivering a stylish, slightly irreverent thriller. It doesn't bring anything new to the genre, but the cast's exuberance and Warden's competent direction ensure an entertaining watch for fans of this type of lighthearted, darkly comedic narrative. Sticking to a predictable formula, it delivers exactly what it promises and remains engaging enough to justify its short runtime." Rating: B-

    I think we're overly critical of this film... This has got to be the funniest and most maniacal film I've seen all this year, in fact, in quite a while. The sheer madness of it has all the possibilities of being a Cult favorite for fans of deranged love on full tilt. The non-stop laughs with just enough bloody mayhem to keep the Horror fans entertained throughout. It's a definite Friday night film.
