Friday Movie Release: “Uncharted,” “Dog,” “The King’s Man”

This Friday will have theaters giving moviegoers three, fun titles to watch for the weekend. Uncharted is an action, treasure-hunting flick, Dog tells a story of an unlikely friendship between man and a pup, and The King’s Man will take fans all the way back to the 20th-century origin of the secret agency.

In Uncharted, street-smart Nathan Drake (Tom Holland), is recruited by seasoned treasure hunter, Victor “Sully” Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg), to recover a fortune amassed by Ferdinand Magellan, and lost 500 years ago by the House of Moncada. What starts as a heist job for the duo becomes a globe-trotting, white-knuckle race to reach the prize before the ruthless Santiago Moncada (Antonio Banderas), who believes he and his family are the rightful heirs. If Nate and Sully can decipher the clues and solve one of the world’s oldest mysteries, they stand to find $5 billion in treasure and perhaps even Nate’s long-lost brother…but only if they can learn to work together. The film is based on a video game of the same name and is directed by Ruben Fleischer.

Dog follows two former Army Rangers who are paired against their will on the road trip of a lifetime. Army Ranger Briggs (Channing Tatum) and Lulu (a Belgian Malinois dog) buckle into a 1984 Ford Bronco and race down the Pacific Coast in hopes of making it to a fellow soldier’s funeral on time. Along the way, they’ll drive each other completely crazy, break a small handful of laws, narrowly evade death, and learn to let down their guards in order to have a fighting chance of finding happiness. The film is directed by Reid Carolin, as well as the film’s star, Channing Tatum.

The King’s Man is the third film in the Kingsman trilogy. The film takes fans to the start, as a collection of history’s worst tyrants and criminal masterminds gather to plot a war to wipe out millions. One man must race against time to stop them. Discover the origins of the very first independent intelligence agency in The King’s Man. The Comic Book “The Secret Service” by Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons. The King’s Man is directed by Matthew Vaughn and stars Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Ifans, Matthew Goode, Tom Hollander, Harris Dickinson, Daniel Brühl, Djimon Hounsou, and Charles Dance.
