Review of Tomb Raider (2018) by Vanessa R — 17 Mar 2018

Being an enthusiastic fan of the Tomb Raider games, a movie that looked like it was pulled straight out of my favorite of the games had me nearly vibrating in anticipation. The trailers and teasers used scenes carefully chosen to mimic iconic 2013 Tomb Raider game moments, bursting with promises of an incredible live action debut of the fantastically written reboot of Lara Croft's story.

The resulting movie, however, proved nothing more than a vast disappointment and a waste of two hours that would have served better in the game it was pretending to emulate.
