Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished years earlier. Hoping to solve the mystery of her father's disappearance, Croft embarks on a perilous journey to his last-known destination -- a fabled tomb on a mythical island that might be somewhere off the coast of Japan. The stakes couldn't be higher as Lara must rely on her sharp mind, blind faith and stubborn spirit to venture into the unknown.

Critics Consensus

Tomb Raider reboots the franchise with a more grounded approach and a star who's clearly more than up to the task -- neither of which are well served by an uninspired origin story.

Andrea Gronvall

Chicago Reader

Roar Uthaug (The Wave) directed; his work feels derivative of Steven Spielberg's first two Indiana Jones movies, though not half as entertaining.

If you're coming to Tomb Raider, you're not coming for the common sense. You're coming for the action sequences. Luckily, Vikander kills in every segment she's in.

Rated: 2.5/4

But there's little [Roar Uthaug] can do with Robertson-Dworet and Alastair Siddons's script (derived largely from the "third era" of the video game), which functions like a treasure map without resonance or mystery.

The Cinematic Reel

Tomb Raider is a step in a the right direction for a genre desperately needing a turn-in critical performance. While nothing to boast about with 34 films in the genre thus far, the 50 percent rating on rotten tomatoes moves the needle up.

Rated: 2.5/4

A fun and often times thrilling action-adventure with a strong, believable female protagonist .

Curve

The real pleasure of this Tomb Raider is Alicia Vikander’s distinctively living embodiment of Lara Croft. Part athlete, part sleuth, this Lara is all sinew and soulful drive.

The first 20 minutes of the movie is the main character not succeeding at anything. Lost interest after that.

I had a good time watching it, but I am a really big fan of the games so if you are not into this universe this movie may not be for you.
