Not even a remix of the Uncharted theme during a climactic shootout, padded up to that point by generic action muzak, brings joy. But the execution is flat, inconsequential, and boring. The filmmakers have the right idea of what makes an Uncharted action set piece, whether they’re molding a sequence after something from the games, or inventing something entirely new that would fit within one of them, like a bit involving characters battling inside pirate ships hoisted into the air by airplanes. Tom Holland ( Spider-Man: No Way Home) stars in Zombieland director Ruben Fleischer’s 2022 adaptation of the Uncharted action-adventure video game series as Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter who teams up with partner-mentor Victor “Sully” Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) to search for the lost treasure of Ferdinand Magellan. Where to watch: Available to stream on Netflix Photo: Clay Enos/Universal Pictures Trachtenberg finds ways to present the efficiencies of their short, brief lives with a flourish: He sets up action with overhead shots, sometimes from far above for lay-of-the-land establishing shots, and sometimes giving the camera just enough space for a full view of obstacles like a particularly sticky mud pit. A late-arriving band of fur traders also offers up some huntable bodies. The other members of Naru’s tribe are there to naysay and/or become Predator fodder. This is a movie about a young woman on a collision course with a spine-ripping alien dude in a cool skull mask. Trachtenberg, who made the similarly pared-down franchise extension 10 Cloverfield Lane, has one major thing to offer in Prey: efficiency. Where to watch: Available to stream on Hulu Photo: David Bukach/20th Century Studiosĭan Trachtenberg’s prequel to the long-running Predator film franchise stars Amber Midthunder ( Hell or High Water) as a Comanche warrior in 1719 who discovers the prey she thought she had been stalking is in fact a vicious headhunter from another world hellbent on killing humans for sport. Here’s everything new you can watch at home this weekend. That’s not all! There’s also a new Ron Howard movie about the Thai cave rescue, a slasher on Peacock, the new Minions movie, an intriguing horror movie starring Rebecca Hall, and so much more.
The new Predator movie, Prey, drops on Hulu (and it’s really good!), three big animated movies ( Lightyear, Luck, and Belle) make their streaming debuts, Uncharted finally lands on Netflix, and two Best Picture nominees - Licorice Pizza and Belfast - finally land on streaming. After a light few weeks in new movie releases, this week is perhaps the busiest of the year so far.
