Large budget blockbuster decades in the manufacture of maximum domination

Large -budget action adventures, people like The mummy and Indiana Jones and the assailants of the lost arkThey have fallen out of Hollywood, but there is a big exception: Unexplored. The adaptation of large -budget video games is a setback to a different time, from the great pieces of adventure and the trot of balloons and the star power of Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg when they have no longer told anyone to worry about the stars. During the last decade, this has been the dominance of the fast and furious franchise, but with the adventure of Holland as Nathan Drake continues to be a transmission success, he recently placed in the first five of Max, the tide could be turning.

Uncharted is a balloon trot adventure

Unexplored It can be adapting the successful playstation 3 game, but the film, with Tom Holland as the adventurer Nathan Drake, quickly goes out in a different direction, changing the origins and motivations of the characters, and the plot does his thing. In the movie, Drake is considerably younger than the Grizz adventurer and tired of the first game, and here he is looking for the lost ships of Magellan and not the treasure of Sir Francis Drake. Joining him is Mark Wahlberg as Sully, his brother’s former companion, and Sophia Ali as Chloe, another fortune hunter (with the voice in the game of Landscape Claudia Black), and although the trio finally works together, they are the jokes and argue that it helps to boost the entire first half of the film.

The adventure in Unexplored It goes from a high -end auction to the sewers in Barcelona and, finally, an exotic tropical island that has been hiding a mystery for centuries. At all times, Drake and his friends have to deal with the mercenaries hired by the rich Santiago Moncada, touched with the perfect amount of silt and arrogance of Antonio Banderas. It is a standard Hollywood adventure of the old school, but for a hungry audience of that type of film, it is a breath of fresh air.

Ironically, Unexplored I spent so much time in production that Mark Wahlberg was originally chosen to play Nathan Drake, but when the cameras began shooting in 2020, Wahlberg was playing Sully, the biggest mentor. The first shooting day, the production was closed in a matter of hours due to the beginning of the Covid pandemic. Fortunately, that was the last obstacle in cleaning, since the film was optional for the first time for production in 2008.

Tom Holland is the next big thing

Although Unexplored It is fun, was crossed by critics, since most ended up summarizing in Rotten Tomatoes as aggressively average, explaining the 41 percent rating that gave the film. The public, on the other hand, enjoys a fun movie that does not require that they think too much for two hours and can sit and enjoy, giving it a rating of 89 percent fresh. It is not a film for critics, and the public rewarded him, bringing $ 401 million at the box office, and during the summer of 2024, Sony confirmed that a sequel is in development.

Hollywood begin to notice video game films, with Mario and Sonic publishing amazing numbers, while superhero movies begin to fail. In the transmission, video games are everywhere: there are videos of Amazon Prime Radioactive dustMax’s The last of usAnd even Peacock went into action with Twisted metal. Unexplored It can be hiding its own path away from the award -winning Naughty Dog franchise, but Tom Holland is still involved, which is now a double -edged sword.

It will spend some time until we can see UNCharted 2 Due to the busy Holland schedule. First, you need to finish filming the next Christopher Nolan movie, The OdysseyAnd then the production can begin, placing a sequel in 2027 as soon as possible. If the sequel never materializes, at least the first film is the best action adventure of the decade

Unexplored It is transmitting in Max.
