Critics Consensus

Elevated by Samara Weaving and Ray Nicholson's performances to a point, this fun-enough romp eventually finds itself on the Borderline.

Meagan Navarro

Bloody Disgusting

Despite two talented leads, the loose, fictionalized remix of a true stalker case struggles to strike a coherent balance between comedy and horror, landing instead on a repellent, vapid anti-love letter to ’90s Los Angeles.

Rated: 2/5

The breathless pace, and all these jagged tonal asides, can leave you feeling more than a little disoriented, especially as they drag Warden further from the toxic romance that’s supposed to undergird “Borderline”‘s central story.

Rated: 2.5/4

Kristen Lopez

The Film Maven (Substack)

Warden makes the move from the page to behind the camera with Borderline, a feature that doesn’t have the same retro feeling as Cocaine Bear, but still provides some quick and dirty fun in 94 minutes.

Rated: C

Borderline is nearly unwatchable.

for those seeking a sharper take on obsession or celebrity culture, or even just looking for compromised thrills, Borderline will likely feel like an opportunity narrowly missed.

Film Freak Central

Borderline is carefully thought-out and laser-focused on the simplicity of its framework while remaining determined to squeeze every last drop of inspiration from it.

A bodyguard protects a pop superstar and her athlete boyfriend from a determined stalker in 1990s Los Angeles. Pros: Dark comedy stalker/home in asion movie. Samara Weaving is great as always. Really fun performance from Ray Nicholson who chews up every scene he is in. Surprise performance goes out to Alba Baptista who is hilarious. Funny dark humor and surprisingly violent. The third act had me rolling. Cons: Takes a little too long to get going. Nothing really new done here.

A film unlike any other that brings out the best in its director, who has interesting things to show and deserves to be taken into account. It's not a perfect film, but it's worth giving it its time and seeing. It has truly worthwhile moments that will make you laugh out loud.

One of Samaras best, although I prefered her more serious role in Azreal. This will certainly have your sides splitting from yhe absurdity of the brain of a mad man.
