Sony's long-in-the-works video game adaptation "Uncharted" collected US$44 million over the weekend, enough to lead domestic box office charts and solidify Tom Holland's star power.

The big-budget action-adventure has been positioned as a key test of Holland's bankability outside of his blockbuster success as Spider-Man.

"Uncharted" has received mixed reviews, at best, so it's safe to assume the 25-year-old British actor had a healthy hand in selling tickets.

It also helps that "Uncharted" is rated PG-13 and based on one of the most popular video games.
