Looks decent. Seems like a mashup of the reboot games. The only scene that I didn't like was the one at the end, the "I'll take two" scene. Seemed out of place with the rest of the trailer.

Action looked kinda rough but Walton Goggins looks like he'll be great

Honestly I'm down for this, seems pretty fun

that last part from the trailer, wow like no charisma at all.

That line is supposed to be badass but falls flat and more like someone trying to be cool

music kind of killed it for me. also that ending... kind of fell flat. :\

she doesn't really act like a badass in the reboots. not like the originals at least.

directors that feel the need to try and make the game instead of making a movie that exists on its on terms is why these things don't turn out well.

I thought it looked OK. Action seemed good. Walter Goggins as the bad guy is cool. McNulty, Nick Frost. Little homage at the end. Good trailer.
 
Eh, it was okay.

Anyway, nice to see Walton Goggins and Daniel Wu. Didn't know they were in this. Since he mentions fate of the world, I wonder if there are gonna be some supernatural elements in this.

Man, it bounced back and forth between seeming great and then a terrible line or hilariously overdone slow-mo leap popped up.

And then there's Nick Frost, making me kind of want to see it.

And Goggins, of course.

I mean it didn't look offensively bad. Definitely a bit generic, but I'm expecting it to get weird and supernatural. Plus it's been awhile since a good historical artifact romp in theaters.

I'm in.

Credit where credit is due: At least they didn't do that friggin 3 second preview of the trailer everyone feels the need to do these days (like Wonder Woman).

Movie still looks like hot garbage though.

I'm not buying Vikander as 2013 Lara one bit.

well we start at the beginning of her journey so maybe in time she can actually bulk up cause she looks lke 90 lbs wet.

Yeah there's running, shooting, CGI puzzles and death traps, and she runs across a plane wing for no fucking reason. what more do you people want?

I love treasure hunt/solving secret puzzles or mysteries kinda movies. I think they're actually best when they aren't bogged down with action. This one looks like it'll have too much action.

Same applies to the actual games when I think about it. My least favorite moments in Uncharted for example were the endless waves of enemies sections. The discovery and platforming and just exploring were my favorite parts. And just general story development.
