Season 1 Review: Atwell’s committed voice performance amplifies the strong character writing, further enhanced by bold imagery more akin to a psychological thriller. She may be animated, but this iteration is the most fully rendered Croft has been yet outside of the games. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft has action, mystery, and a sincere emotional core that combine to form a fleshed-out world and story that will pique your interest. With plenty of compelling plotlines, questions, and characters set up in the first episode, we look forward to continuing on with them to see where this exciting adventure will lead. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Moving with grace from level—er, episode to episode—this Netflix series is a welcome, enjoyable binge watch that’s likely to land with Lara Croft novices and fans alike. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Some fans of the franchise might be quick to make the complaint that they would rather have another video game installment, rather than a television series, but The Legend of Lara Croft seamlessly captures the tone and the world that made the Survivor Trilogy so effective in the first place.

Season 1 Review: Outside of the main villain’s arc (which had me rolling my eyes), the eight-episode story isn’t bad. But just about everything else – characters, story, animation – is mediocre. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Overall, "The Legend of Lara Croft" fails to capture the same flair and sense of adventure that's so deeply embedded in the video games. Read full review

EmpireDavid OpieOct 10, 2024
Season 1 Review: The Legend Of Lara Croft is an uneven bridge between the old and new of the Tomb Raider franchise, one that doesn’t quite live up to the high standards of the recent video-game-to-anime renaissance. Read full review
