What to Know

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 03/05/2020
Roar Uthaug (The Wave) directed; his work feels derivative of Steven Spielberg's first two Indiana Jones movies, though not half as entertaining. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review
Michael Sragow Film Comment Magazine 03/29/2018
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. Go to Full Review
David Gonzalez The Cinematic Reel 01/31/2023
2.5/4
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. Go to Full Review
Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies 08/27/2022
4/5
A fun and often times thrilling action-adventure with a strong, believable female protagonist . Go to Full Review
Merryn Johns Curve 05/20/2022
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. Go to Full Review

Nick G. 06/13/2021 It's okay if you like the Tomb Raider franchise, but doesn't add much. See more Ryan S 1d It's really matched with the original game, unfortunately the ending is lame See more Jordan M 2d Understanding that this is a inexperienced Lara...the film still lacked the empathy, courageousness, and intelligence of the previous(Angelina Jolie) films in the franchise. Don't enter this film with any expectations of a true explorer/tomb raider See more Mark C. @nonesuch Nov 10 This Laura Croft had 0 skills. She wasn’t even particularly coordinated. It’s like the producers asked “what if Laura was a completely unremarkable person”. See more Michael M. @mickeysamo Oct 24 Dull and lifeless, lacking any of the grit of the recent games or the campy fun of the previous movies. See more Joseph H Oct 4 Tomb raider.....s daddy issues See more Read all reviews
