I loved the games and as a huge fan I think this movie is pretty well made. This is what you want to see if you ever imagined yourself being Lara. It seems kinda raw, which the game is as well. The earlier games were more about riddles, the new ones are about running and fighting, which I personally don't like.īut the movie is entertaining, and I like how it was directed. In this movie you see more of the kind of stuff you get from the game it was based on. Vikander led MGM and GK Films’ reboot Tomb Raider, which earned 275 million worldwide and was slated to have a sequel helmed by Lovecraft Country creator Misha Green. I loved Angelina Jolie's Lara doing her training at the manor, for example, and there was more cool ancient stuff going on. The film stars Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft, who embarks on a perilous journey to her fathers last-known destination, hoping to solve the mystery of his. I wish there was more game-like stuff in the movie, like in the first Tomb Raider movies. Her acting was great too, it was very intense and realistic - the emotions and the sounds she made during the fight made it seem like it was all happening for real. Alicia looks stunning and sporty, and she oozes Lara Croft from every pore. There's been a lot of talk about her practically nonexistent breasts, and 'of course' the real Lara is quite busty, but I find this talk ridiculous. And she looks very athletic so that adds to the overal feel of Lara being a spunky little adventuress.Ģ. Apparently Alicia did some stunts herself so maybe they didn't have to use so much CGI. After a pair of movies starring Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft was released years prior, Alicia Vikander took over the role in the Tomb Raider reboot released in 2018. She looked like Alicia Vikander, an actual person that has stuff happen to her. They looked real and Lara didn't look like some plastic figure jumping and tumbling around and whatnot. I can't say it has a great storyline, but at least it has some storyline, unlike most Hollywood action movies these days.ġ. This is definitely not the worst movie of the century. The rights to the Tomb Raider franchise are controlled by Graham King’s GK Films, which is now shopping them to potential studios and outlets, as well as seeking a new lead for what will therefore presumably be another reboot of the series.I don't get the 1-star reviews. I think Misha and I have been ready, so it’s kind of in somebody else’s hands, to be honest. The news is perhaps not unexpected, given that Vikander admitted earlier this month that she had no idea what was going on with the planned Tomb Raider 2: “With the MGM and Amazon buyout, I have no clue. Lara Croft (Alicia Vikander), the fiercely independent daughter of a missing adventurer, must push herself beyond her limits when she discovers the island. Misha Green ( Lovecraft Country) subsequently came on board to direct in January of last year, but has been unable to get the project off the ground before MGM’s option expired. MGM quickly greenlit a sequel, with Ben Wheatley ( Kill List) originally attached to direct for a March 2021 release, only for production to be delayed due to the pandemic. Vikander became the second actress after Angelina Jolie to portray the iconic video game heroine when she took on the role of Lara for the Roar Uthaug-directed reboot, which grossed $274.7 million back in 2018. Bad news for any fans looking forward to the further adventures of Alicia Vikander’s Lara Croft, as The Wrap has revealed that MGM has lost the movie rights to the video game franchise Tomb Raider.
