Review of Uncharted (2022) by Dubeau — 24 Apr 2022
Uncharted is another messed up video game adaptation. The story is just average but lacks real emotions, and completely derails at the ends. The actors are all of them, miscast. They are all too young of don't fit the roles well.
Exception made of Banderas. But they kill him in a most stupidest and useless death scene, I have ever seen. The videogame tries to make the experience real in terms of action, but the movie is completely at the opposite of that.
And it even falls into ridiculous when you get around the plane scene at the end (and beginning), and the horrible, laughable flying boats. The music is generic at best. This is just another movie that doesn't respect it's material source.
The movie is shot in a very classical way, when it could have been a very stylistic video game presentation. Gone are the incredible vista shots, the realism, the archaeological elements of the videogame.
Even the dialog banters from Nathan are almost absent. I give the movie 38%. Mainly because I think the actors are at no fault here.
