You may or may not like their videos, but let's not pretend to be offended by someone going through every insignificant detail to criticize this movie, when we do the exact same thing over every piece of Tomb Raider media. At least they do it just for fun and not because those things actually bother them like in our case...
Don’t get me wrong. I love some of their videos, they are very funny sometimes but I thought this one was weak. They could have done a better job nitpicking and adding extra sins twice was lazy af.

That's fine, but his nit picks were factually incorrect. It's not funny if his complaint is literally negated by the film itself, literally seconds earlier. It's like iWANEX said, it just screams lazy.

Like his comment about the life boat made it sound like Lara was pointing it out to Lu as how they will escape....when she is really trying to warn him it's about to go overboard, since it's shown that its literally about to fall off the Endurance.

Same with the flare. It's super dark out and it illuminates the sky....it's safe to assume people will see it, since that's what flares are for.

Does seem like you're taking it too seriously.
A lot of the time their nitpicks are deliberately stupid.

There's one movie they did (forget which one...) where they say like "Characters not explaining why they-" and then they jokingly have the film interrupt them with a character explaining why they're doing a certain action. There's a long pause and finally he says "... **** you we're still giving you the sin." And then the DING goes off.

They're meant to be dumb and a lot of the time focus on things that ARE explained in the film. They aren't reviews, if you look at it as a genuine critique it could be annoying but that's not what they are. You could just not find it funny though and I can understand that

My point is don't get worried about people watching that and coming away with a bad opinion of the film, 90% of people that watch cinemasins know it's a joke.

Adding to what Sora said, you can also see when they actually don't like a movie. Not the case at all with Tomb Raider.

I mean, as I said before, just watch their videos for any 50 shades movie: their opinions on those movies are very clear and very negative.
