I find it interesting how they're cherry-picking different elements and set pieces from various Uncharted games. Might work better than just following a single game's story step-by-step. Obviously, it still needs an overall engrossing story and good character moments. The biggest problem really seems to be how miscast Wahlberg was. He lacks both the charm Sully has on the light-hearted moments and the gravitas to perform the more serious story beats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jermster_91 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I want to hear the Uncharted theme at least once during the movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangisuckatgamin Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Definitely not going to a cinema to see this. Would have used HBO to stream it , especially since it's not really pulling me in anyhow. Not a big loss overall, will wait to rent it for cheap. [Guess we will wait and see if they keep this cinemas only though since places seem to be shutting down again.] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slava Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 The second trailer makes it look more like the modern Fast and Furious movies, which I absolutely hate. The ship set piece looks very dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship set piece looks very dumb. You are being a bit unfair. The games are over-the-top action blockbusters with fantasy and supernatural elements. Appart from Marky Mark, nothing in that trailer seems particularly off-brand. "Say hi to your mother for me, okay?" @Slava On second thought, I get what you're saying, and you're right. I gotta separate things. Just because it works as a game, doesn't mean it works as a movie. I didn't ask for this movie either. But I'll give it a watch. Just outta curiosity, if nothing else. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, I don't know what happened in Uncharted 4 onwards, so if there were scenes where two helicopters carried entire ships disregarding all laws of physics, I haven't seen them ?. To me, there is a line between over-the-top action and nonsense. The latter is what Fast and Furious is now known for. That kind where disbelief can't be suspended anymore. The plane scene, for example, is much lower on the scale of craziness. The ship scene looks like someone gave a big budget to an Indian action film ?.

Just because it works as a game, doesn't mean it works as a movie. I think most scenes from the PS3 games can work in a movie. Even the elements of "magical realism" like nazi zombies. I just can't remember any set piece that would abandon logic and physics like that. Well, I hope this scene doesn't bother other people like it bothers me.

Honestly, I had to google how much that kind of ship weighs. And yeah, it would take a whole fleet of skycrane helis to lift those things.

It is $10 if you own Uncharted 4 or The Lost Legacy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feral Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 This new trailer looks pretty cool (well except for the ships being carried off part). It’s making me keen to see this movie where I wasn’t before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
