Film Review of Lara Croft Tomb Raider
Year: 2001 Reviewer: Chris Docker
This was a movie I felt I had to see even though the reviews were so bad. Angelina Jolie is lovely and I'm sure she had fun making it, but I ran out of energy trying to believe in it. It reminded me of the worst bits from a bad Bond movie with offcuts from Charlie's Angels and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. In a nutshell, Lara gets landed with a key to a magic thingie that gets her half a triangle towards the ultimate whatyamacallit and fights off some men in suits and machine guns who also want to get hold the same thing. Think of it as a video game on an old 486 computer with the "Trite Version" button fully depressed.
Rating: 4/10
