After a thief steals a set of Chinese artifacts from her family manor, Lara Croft chases them around the world with help from her friend Zip, while grieving her mentor.
Players of the Tomb Raider games and artifact-chase fans with a taste for the supernatural get an easy, handsome watch, if a familiar one. Lara drops into a hole in a Chinese forest looking for missing children and meets the fox spirit Daji, which shows how far the myth side goes. Hayley Atwell gives Lara real grief, and Richard Armitage plays the villain Devereaux with theatrical relish.
The first season starts slowly, so give the early episodes some patience; the second season goes further into the supernatural.
