Hot Cinema News's video: Tomb Raider 2018

Tomb Raider (2018) Following the disappearance of her father Richard, Lara Croft lives a reckless and carefree life. When she is arrested after an accident involving a police car, Richard's business partner Ana Miller posts her bail and warns her that if she does not claim her inheritance, her father's estate will be sold off. Lara reluctantly accepts and comes into possession of the key to her father's office. There she finds a pre-recorded message from Richard detailing his research into Himiko, the mythical Queen of Yamatai who was said to command the power over life and death. Richard warns Lara to destroy all of his research but Lara decides to investigate further. Lara travels to Hong Kong where she bribes Lu Ren, captain of the ship Endurance, to sail to an island believed to have once been Yamatai. The ship capsizes in a violent storm and Lara is washed ashore where she is knocked unconscious. She is revived by Mathias Vogel, the leader of an expedition to locate Himiko's tomb that has been funded by the shadowy Trinity organisation in an attempt to harness and weaponise Himiko's power. Vogel takes Lara prisoner, revealing that he killed her father and intends to use Richard's research to continue his expedition. Lara escapes with the help of Lu Ren, who survived the storm and has been put to work with the local fishermen digging for Himiko's tomb. She evades capture but is seriously wounded in the process and passes out from her injuries. Lara regains consciousness after nightfall and is forced to kill a Trinity guard when she is nearly discovered. She follows a mysterious figure wandering the island and discovers that the figure is her father, who has himself been held captive on Yamatai. After convincing him that she is real, Richard treats her injuries and despite his protests, Lara sets off to recover his research from Vogel's camp and take the fight to Trinity. Lara makes contact with Lu Ren and he, along with the fishermen, stage distractions, allowing Lara to infiltrate the Trinity camp and recover her father's research. In the ensuing chaos, Richard makes his way to the tomb and is captured by Vogel, who persuades Lara to open Himiko's tomb. The party navigate a series of booby traps before locating Himiko's sarcophagus. Trinity soldiers attempt to remove her corpse but become infected by Himiko's "power over death", a virus, and devolve into mindless beings. Vogel kills them and concludes that he cannot remove Himiko's body and instead settles for removing her thumb, which he seals in a pouch. In the confusion, Lara and Richard overpower the remaining soldiers. Vogel escapes while Richard is infected. Knowing there is no cure, he proposes destroying Himiko's tomb to prevent the virus spread across the world. Lara gives chase to Vogel, confronting him as Richard sets off a bomb, killing himself and sealing the tomb. Lara force-feeds Himiko's thumb to Vogel and traps him in a pit as the infection takes over. She is rescued by Lu Ren and the fishermen, who hijacks a Trinity helicopter to escape Yamatai. Lara returns to London, where she formally accepts her inheritance. Using it to investigate Trinity further, she discovers that Trinity's front company is owned by Croft Holdings, and begins to suspect that Ana Miller is one of their agents who manipulated her into accepting her inheritance, signing over control of Croft Holdings' business operations to her, and inadvertently delivering Richard's research to Vogel after Richard stopped co-operating. Seeking to continue her investigation and having witnessed Trinity's ruthlessness first-hand, she prepares for her next adventure to stop Trinity.
