We don’t usually share this kind of stories but compared to other movies that are based on video-games, the upcoming movie for Tomb Raider appears to be really faithful to its source material. Warner Bros has just released its debut trailer and the guys over at IGN have made a comparison video between the video game and the movie trailer.
As you can clearly see, this is the most faithful movie adaptation of a video game ever released. And while we expect some differences here and there, the plot and pretty much all major details appear to be taken directly from the game.
The fact that this movie trailer can be easily recreated, shot by shot, via the game’s cut-scenes also shows how close to the Crystal Dynamics’ reboot this new Tomb Raider movie actually is.
Enjoy!

I was hoping for something darker, considering the Tomb Raider reboot ( game ). Now it could be editing but even if it looks close the game indeed, it also, unfortunately, looks like an uninspired action flick.
It is a pity they took the ship breaking up out ( much more dramatic ) but hopefully, they will keep the dark Japanese mythology. Hollywood rarely delivers these days…
And looks like utter garbage.
“And looks like utter garbage.”
better than Cradle of life. goes to show you that not even the original games could make a better movie.
Well hello there A cups. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/175ed4abe19a582c199046a6a307c4df2f294dea0d1c44846c02cb1beb322259.gif
…Which is a POS compared to the original saga
This said, Alicia Vikander is a chocolate praline <3
“Really faithful to the video game”
Which one, the Tomb Raider series or the Lara Croft: Daughter of Rambo series?
Also, wow, that actress is stiff as hell.
God i hate that actress to the core. She’s got nothing appealing to me.
She’s been really solid in her other roles.
Oh, I just realised she’s the Man From UNCLE & Ex Machina girl.
Good point ^^
Wait – does that mean they actually want her to act even worse than Fassbender in Animus Creed? ……
She starred in another, different kind of movie, The Light Between Oceans.
I haven’t seen A.C.
Eh, he did play a good Ruski, though.
I meant it as a compliment!
That’s not a good thing, I dislike the new games a lot for their scripted generic gameplay, but the story is even worse than the gameplay.
Silent Hill & Mortal Kombat (1995) Perfect Movies.
oooooooooooh Mortal Kombat, (I can hear the music already)
The Silent Hill movies were alright. the actress in the 2nd movie did not look as pretty as the video game model though.
Mortal Kombat movie was plagued by cheesy acting. even worse for MK Annihilation….even worse for the TV series…..and even way worse for the cartoon series, like really horrible.
I agree…both were great movies.
That being said, even the original Tomb Raider with Angelina Jolie was cool IMHO!
Want to watch because Alicia Vikander, don’t want to watch because videogame movies (and one game that IMO kinda “eh”).
Hummmm…
Lara isn’t even the worst part
Which game? The ones she is a explorer and a “tomb raider” or those ones when she becomes a manslaughter?
Super Mario Bros.
Finest piece of cinema ever made.
I can’t wait for the movie’s nude mods.
Looks like a b movie, the visuals the dialogues even the music and i thought Uwe Boll was dead.
The Silent Hill movies were actually not that bad.
I never liked the Silent Hill games (I like the lore of them, not the actual gameplay) so the movies were perfect for me, personally.
