Holland gives his all as rogueish treasure hunter Nathan Drake in a by-the-numbers PlayStation adaptation that\u2019s heavy on spectacle but light on heart<\/p>\n

With laser-guided precision, with the exactitude of a Nobel-winning rocket scientist or a world-class neurosurgeon, this film measures right up to what you\u2019d expect from a movie based on a PlayStation video game<\/a>. It\u2019s a huge greenscreen action-adventure with a reasonable bang-buck ratio, but a box office algorithm where its heart is supposed to be.

He is now making a few bucks as a cocktail waiter but he\u2019s also a pickpocket, ripping off rich people in the bar \u2013 and dreaming of finding Magellan\u2019s loot, which his adored older brother once told him about before mysteriously going missing.<\/p>\n
