For me, it was also the first adaptation to really capture the "feel" of the games. Both before and after the sirens felt very much like the first time I played through the first Silent Hill game.

Looks terribly miscast. Doesn't feel like uncharted at all. The only thing that did was in the beginning of the trailer when they played a few notes of the games theme.
It's not a prequel. There are scenes and set pieces straight from the games in the trailer. Looks to be more of a "greatest hits" rather than a true adaptation or prequel.
Seriously though, I don’t pay too much attention to critics. I’d rather hear from ppl I know in RL or post with. I’m still gonna judge for myself but those sources work better for me.
I don't know anything about this really but I admit to thinking it looks fun from the trailer. Kind of an Indiana Jones vibe, so I will probably check it out at some point.
Saw this tonight. It was good fun. I only got some of the references cos I've only ever played Uncharted 4. You see pretty much all the action set pieces in the trailer though. The fight choreography is excellent. Very Pirates of the Caribbean style goofiness. Film's like a fun mix of The Davinci Code, The Goonies, Indiana Jones. There's really good chemistry between the characters for the most part.

Same and same. I don’t play video games so nods, in-jokes etc. went over my head, but the guys I went w. did a good job filling me in. As a straight up popcorn munching brain at half mast action movie I dug it, though. It helps that I’m a fan of pretty much every major actor in the movie.
