Uncharted movie goes back to the drawing board again.

This film is based on these newer games, which automatically poisons my enthusiasm. I'm skeptical of video game movies as a rule, even moreso if they are based on video games I don't even like.
I didn't really like the initial installments for the PlayStation. But Tomb Raider: Legends and Underworld, I liked, and I think Rise of the Tomb Raider is much closer to them than the first in the reboot series was.

As for the film, I think it looks much more promising than the first set of movies with Angelina Jolie.

Yeah well I think we've all seen the comments from kids with raging hormones that she needs to go under the surgeon's knife for the role. Even one today from a drip was that 'feminazis have wrecked the franchise'.

I think Alicia will be great and fancy that, she can actually act.

They can’t all be Hayley Atwell.

Alicia Vikander I love the trailer of the movie and her fighting sequences.

Hi there. I’m looking forward for the released of Tomb Raider. I’m a big fan of Lara Croft, she is very fierce and resilient. I hope that Alicia Vikander will fit this role. Walton Goggins seems to be a good villain in terms of his acting skills. Have a nice day!

Boy that trailer looks so bad.

Another stupid reboot it is.

^ Same here, thought this new one was a lot of fun, but still have a place in my heart for the first Jolie one. :D

Yeah the new film was a massive improvement on the Jolie movies... but still nothing to write home about.
It had some nice throwbacks to the games though which were missing from the JolieVerse... jumping across chasms and stuff, and the puzzle aspects in grimy surroundings without the dappy "hero pose" that Jolie would give after she did anything stunt-ish.


Story was a bit short though, reminded me that it was a bit of a remake of the 2nd Jolie movie with the dad-complex thing going on.
I'd say it's probably in the top 20 when it comes to game-movie adaptions though.

I think Voight was in the 1st one?

Yeah this felt more like the games, the side moving monkey bars on the collapsing plane was the association for me
