My dad and I have been going to movies for nearly 30 years now...The first 10 years he ended up choosing what movies we go to watch in Cinema and the ensuing years it comes to me in choosing the right one both of us can enjoy! So it has always been a little challenge to impress my dad on my choice of movies and to check with him if he enjoyed watching it.

After 2 years being away from cinema halls due to covid, we headed out to Uncharted - I did not tell him its a video game franchise. But boy he was excited by the end of the movie - He thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it and for me that in itself can be a recommendation to you! The movie has fine balance between character development and action set pieces!

For me as a fan of the franchise, having played every single game including the two on PS Vita...The game had tonnes of easter eggs which I wont spoil for you and also the tongue in cheek conversations between Sully and Drake. I can't wait to see where the franchise heads next (even-though the two end credits clips do tease them). I can say the movie is in safe hands with Playstation producing it. Would be nice if naughty dog also gets constantly consulted on character development. This could easily be a global phenomenon.

Go watch it!

I teared up even before I came to the credits. It just blows my mind how the creators of shorts like these, just use 10 mins for to you start empathising and live among the characters they have created. Highly recommend!

I watched this on my 4 hour transit flight on emirates business sipping cognac. Every sip of the sweet french brandy fuelling each passing minute of the movie: A thought train running in my mind was - Is the movie trying to idealise alcohol consumption. Well, it doesn't but would I say it did tread on borderlines of embracing alcoholism as a medium for people to lose inhibitions and express themselves better - which is why and how the movie stands out from the crowd and transports viewers to the lives of the character and the world.

I enjoyed every bit of the movie, it was just like trying craft beers at a newly opened distillery - you don't know whats going to pop up next and when it does you are only pleasantly surprised and it raises your curiosity on whats going to come next.

Mads brings to screen an amazing performance, worthy of an oscar if only it was a mainstream Hollywood cinema. Mads' impromptu jazz ballet gave such a high and acts as a tribute to the ENTIRE team who made this movie possible.
