Tomb Raider Reboot

Not too big a fan of the new Tomb Raider, where they try to make Lara "realistic" and more sympathetic. What happened to the dishy brunette with mercenary goals? Not to mention the much lower emphasis on exploration/puzzles and more focus on action. It's hardly even Tomb Raider any more.
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.

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

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.

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.

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