TOMB RAIDER
Watchable. Gosh, is Alicia Vikander muscled! The 2001 and 2003 "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" movies were hogwash full of improbabilities. Technology has since moved on. But the movie's just like the previous. OK, the bits with her dad are touching and all the good characters are likeable but the plot is nonsense, e.g. in spite of training MMA she's unable to defend herself against a knife. All the goodies and baddies are acted well. But the CGIs look like 20 years ago. I saw it in 2D and the little action that there was implies 3D wouldn't make much difference. The plot's so run-of-the-mill I was looking forward to the finale. The ending is neat. The title typography with an arrow in it and the music over the credits are really good. No mid- or post-credits.
I have since checked out the 3D on this movie and just like I expected it makes just a minor difference.
