Lara Croft - Tomb Raider

Summary: Skip this piece of trash...
Review: Ugggg. Not only did I not want to see this, but I was dragged to the SMELLY theater. Anyway, this movie is so pathetic. There is really no plot and I hate angelina joile. One can't help but notice that upon comparing old pictures with new ones, her lips have gotten significantly bigger. Need I say, plastic surgery? Anyway, this movie shamelessly rips off of Indiana Jones. The parts where she mourns for her missing father made me want to laugh. I think the best expression she can manage is a pout. The characters are two dimensional, I had a hard time liking any of them. There is a part where she is in the shower, which pracitcally spells fan service. .... Ewwwwww, what is this about? Skip this movie, you'll thank me later.

Summary: Forget what the critics say...
Review: ...Tomb Raider is the only film to date to be a successful adaption of a computer game. I think the cast and crew tried hard to make this more than some silly movie like Street Fighter and Mario Bros. but yet, as expected, the critics werent having it - they just love to see films like TR fail and they make sure they do their best to negatively review them. Well forget the critics and go and see Tomb Raider. Its short but enjoyable, for both fans of the game and those who havent played it. I discovered more about the character of Lara Croft, played so naturally by Angelina Jolie, and the locations were inspiring and exciting - the first movie in a long while to be granted permission to film in the sacred Angkor Wat temples of Cambodia. Personally, the plot intrigued me also...the planets lining up in a rare configuration that, when the right ancient artifacts are put in place, will allow time to be manipulated. There has always been belief that the ancients had powers associated with the Planets and the TR plot plays with this, although it could've been more clearer rather than left to the imagination. Overall, it was entertaining and I'll definitely see a sequel!

Summary: One of the best
Review: I walked out of this movie smiling. It surpassed all of my expectations. I used to think video game movies would never get any better than 'Mortal Kombat' but after seeing this movie I'm left wondering why I even liked 'MK.' This movie could not possibly be any better. It matches the video game perfectly. Angelina Jolie IS Lara Croft. When I heard they were making this movie I thought of the failures of 'Street Fighter,' 'Mario Bros,' 'Double Dragon,' (and the worst) 'Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.' Video game movies have made a come back. With 'Tomb Raider' and 'Final Fantasy' being brought to the big screen, game fans are happy with what they see.

Summary: Great action movie
Review: This is a great action movie packed with Lara running, jumping, and even doing lots of flips and cartwheels. Angelina Jolie (As Lara Croft) plays the role extremely well. I reccomend that you go and see this or buy it when it comes out because it's definitely worth it!!!

Summary: I acutally slept through this trash!
Review: Yep, this is the only movie to date that I fell a sleep in. Sorry, but this movie was boring! The plot was so absurd, it had something to do with the planets lining up or something. Unfortunately, since I slept through half of it, this is about all I can give you.

Summary: The best protrayal of Lara Croft EVER!
Review: This movie had it all! The moves and stunts, not to mention the special effects were awesome! You gotta give Angelina Jolie some credit for all the hard work and perseverance to become Lara Croft so well. How many actresses could work so hard and still love their job? The writers really knew what they were talking about, giving Lara the ultimate adventure ever! The suspence was thrilling and all of the emotions involved gave it that extra touch. If they could just make another game that took after the movie, they might have something there. All in all, the best movie of the summer and one of the better action/adventure movies I have seen in a long time. Go and see it or reserve your copy of it on video or DVD today! Should come out in October or November.

Summary: At best, a rental.
Review: It's really sad when a big-budget Hollywood movie isn't as good as a videogame's movie cutscenes. But that's what's happened with Tomb Raider. 1 Star, due to terrible dialogue, awful costars, and lame plot. Angelina Jolie's performance ups it to 2 stars. Again, the cheesy animated movies that advance the story in the Tomb Radier games are BETTER than this film.

Summary: Can't favour this one
Review: It's often hugely publicised/promoted flicks like this that turn out to be the major bombs.And this one is just about the worst film of the year.I've found past video game adaptations like Street Fighter and Super Mario Bros. to be hugely underrated fun,but seeing all the publicity and praise this one seems to have received made me determined to register my comments.When even the action and special effects don't entertain you,you know you're in trouble.So,it kind of goes without saying that the story and acting [are bad] in ways you can't imagine.The story is a tiresome mangling of the worst elements of an Indiana Jones story,an incoherent load of old babble that really is too tiresome to go into detail about.All concerned give performances with such sly inconviction you are left reeling.For a superior tale of women kicking butt,check out the far more entertaining Charlie's Angels or even Barb Wire and give this one a wide berth.

Summary: special specials
Review: This film is a combination between Indiana Jones, James Bond and Matrix. Even when I don`t play any playstation games, I became a Lara Croft fan. Angelina Jolie was the best choise they ever could have made - I Think, the way she is acting, she must have loved to play Lara. And here is something, that happened, when I was watching the film in cinema...: the male archeologist [:-( forgot his name] came nacked from the shower and stood right behind the table..., exactly in that moment all women moved forwards to see the "rest" of the actor *lol. Anyway - we all had lots of fun while watching Tomb Raider
