Happy new podcast Wednesday everyone! Today Mike and Matt chat about their first theater film of 2022 the action packed Uncharted starring Mark Whalberg and Tom Holland. Not treasure hunting topics include satellite internet, PlayStation 5, and owning a movie theater for your own use.
Man was it great to finally head back to the theaters. It has been way too long. Uncharted isn’t a bad movie but it’s also not a great movie. It is a summer popcorn flick released in February. The action is great and the story is pretty good, mostly. The acting left more to be desired (we are looking at you Mark Wahlberg) and as Mike likes to put it you really smash the “I believe” button a lot for this film. The guys agree this is not a rush to watch in the theaters. If you want to get out of the house and enjoy some action movie magic you won’t be disappointed. Mike with a shockingly low score gives Uncharted 2.5 out of 5 Reels. Matt thought it was a decent treasure hunt film that could be better. He awards it 3.5 out of 5 Reels.
Next pod Matt and Mike continue their trek to watch all the Academy Award Best Picture nominees with Nightmare Alley starring Bradley Cooper and Cate Blanchett. It’s currently streaming on HBO Max. Chat at you next week!
