Review of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) by Dann M — 10 Aug 2012

To the delight of fanboys everywhere Angelina Jolie straps on the guns and brings video game legend Lara Croft to the big screen. In this adventure Croft must battle the Illuminati in a race to find the Triangle of Light, which possesses the power to control time.

This is a horrible adaptation and makes no sense whatsoever. And the acting is pathetic, as the characters have no depth or dimension to them. Director Simon West is able to infuse a lot of fun action into the film, but it's all action for action's sake.

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider is a substandard action film that's uninspired and underdeveloped.
