With nearly three decades worth of games, movies, and more to pull from starring one of gaming\u2019s most recognizable heroines, you\u2019d think a TV show based on the Tomb Raider<\/em><\/a><\/span> franchise would be a sure hit. Yet Netflix, the streaming giant responsible for powerhouse game adaptations like its Castlevania<\/em><\/a><\/span> <\/em>series and Arcane<\/em><\/a><\/span>, can\u2019t seem to strike gold with Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft<\/em>. The new animated series is plagued by a shallow plot, uninteresting characters, and a disappointing lack of adventure. While the show\u2019s portrayal of iconic hero Lara herself is its saving grace, there\u2019s nothing else of interest that surrounds her.
