Tomb Raider movie

Lara croft is back on the big screen with a whole new adventure and new actress: Oscar winner,Alicia Vikander. This time we see a less polished version than the Angelina Jolie movies, we see a lara just starting out





This version of Lara is more human with flaws and failings. She can take care of herself but is not the fake superwoman from the video games of past. Vikander plays her with confidence, intelligence and bravery befitting the video game legend.  The "prize" or "big bad" in the film is handled with logic and fits perfectly in today's age of giving a kind of realism to the fantastic. The twist is not seen coming but when it is revealed you feel it makes sense, although i did wish for a bit more of the fantastic...maybe in the sequel
