	Media	Author	Review
		Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"When all the one-dimensional supporting characters and familiar action moves fall by the wayside, the one thing left standing is Vikander (...) is the element here that makes 'Tomb Raider' sort of watchable."
		Leah Greenblatt Entertainment Weekly	"[It] isn’t a film for the ages, but it’s actually pretty good fun; an old-fashioned treasure-island adventure tale (...) and anchored by an Oscar-winning actress far more gifted than the story requires."
		Miranda Sanchez IGN	"'Tomb Raider' fails to develop interesting characters or motives but at least offers viewers some fun action."
		Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune	"The Lara Croft reboot 'Tomb Raider' isn’t half bad for an hour. Then there’s another hour. That hour is quite bad (...) Vikander is a fine Lara Croft (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
		Owen Gleiberman Variety	"A reboot of the high-flying action-adventure series is built — surprisingly well — around the soulfully serious intensity of its star, Alicia Vikander (...) It’s something that shouldn’t be so rare: escapism that breathes."
		Jake Cole Slant	"This new 'Tomb Raider' isn’t an adaptation of a video game so much as an adaptation of a video game’s tutorial level (...) Above all, everything in Tomb Raider is conspicuously and tediously functional (...) Rating: ★ (over 4)"
		Geoffrey Macnab The Independent	"Despite a promising opening and a fine central performance, this video game-inspired reboot is stymied by some unremarkable action sequences"
		Inkoo Kang Slate	"In the thrilling new video game adaptation—whoever thought we’d say that?—the pleasure is in seeing all that Alicia Vikander’s Lara Croft can do."
