I read slightly mixed reviews going into this film, but thought Alicia was a good casting choice and so went in optimistic. Having come back from the cinema, I can say that this is a solid film; possibly the best adaption of a video game, at least off the top of my head. Alicia nails it as Lara Croft, although in this film we see her origins, and so isn't necessarily the Lara we know and love! But she is getting there, and Alicia pulls it off well. The CGI was a bit spotty in places, but nothing terrible by any means, and yes there are a few cliches and overused story devices here and there, but overall it is an enjoyable film which I will certainly buy on Blu Ray, and I hope it does well enough to get a sequel. Go see it!
