People just wanting those two things will probably enjoy this film.
This Lara Croft character is put on by a dynamic performance by Angelina Jolie. This is, after all, the guy who worked alongside one of Holland's favourite sons, the legendary Paul Verhoeven, on such indisputable triumphs as Turks Fruit or Flesh + Blood. But then I had seen the trailers for the first Tomb Raider movie, and boy, had I been disappointed. Was this review helpful? The mummified body of Imhotep is shipped to a museum in London, where he once again wakes and begins his campaign of rage and terror. Being a huge fan of Mr. Chris Barrie, it was nice to see the character of Hillary have more to do than just clean up after the mansion gets raided. People that want a good story and better direction should skip this film. In 'Tomb Raider 2' he is just mixing a potion of James Bond with a little bit of Indiana Jones, without too much of a result. 36 out of 63 found this helpful. "Die Another Day" suffered from much of the same, but was also saddled with an inexplicable amount of stereo feedback and one of the oddest (if catchiest) theme songs in recent memory. Well don't bother writing me please. 16 out of 24 found this helpful. A frustrated office worker learns that he is the son of a professional assassin and that he shares his father's superhuman killing abilities. The plot is in fact quite interesting, although not original at all (the evil guy wants to earn millions of dollars by selling a powerful biological weapon which is kept in Pandora's box).

All in all, The Cradle of Life hits almost all the right notes. Angelina Jolie does an amazing job as Lara Croft and I don't think that they could ever choose anyone besides her. Predictable and trite. Today, an evil bio-terrorist named Dr. Jonathan Reiss (Ciaran Hinds) is in hot pursuit of that box and is willing to exploit its powers to our vulnerable world. I have to say this was overall a great movie.

Unfortunately Jolie's performance is rather lifeless, and she doesn't have much chemistry with co-star Gerard Butler. Was this review helpful? However the fantasy used to create the stories of the video games does not suit very well hollywood movies. This is a good action and adventures movie. Was this review helpful? The series has been re-energized with the new entry "The Cradle Of Life," a high-spirited, far-reaching film that doesn't quite succeed but is such an improvement on the originals that you're ready to overlook all that. Rating 6.8/10
Having a lot of action doesn't mean its audience will be entertained. Adventurer Lara Croft goes on a quest to save the mythical Pandora's Box, before an evil scientist finds it, and recruits a former Marine turned mercenary to assist her. When I look at Jan De Bont's resumé, I think of all the brilliant Dutch projects he has worked upon, and then I think of the films he has directed in America. When Terry dies my eyes were welling up with disappointment(not in Gerry's acting).
The places Lara visits (Greece, China, Africa...) are beautiful and are good choices (I love when she rides in her motorbike on the Great Chinese Wall). Talk about couples goals! A retired master car thief must come back to the industry and steal fifty cars with his crew in one night to save his brother's life. 15 out of 24 found this helpful.
Director Jan de Bont succeeded much better with the original story in 'Speed' or the reality-TV like effects in 'Twister'. Most get killed rather early on, but since the viewer has no clue who they are, who's to care? Was this review helpful? Although Cradle of Life won't go down in movie history as an all-time classic, I am mystified at why so many critics and moviegoers hated it. A bored married couple is surprised to learn that they are both assassins hired by competing agencies to kill each other. Girl power rules! 41 out of 74 found this helpful. Anyone who says different has too much time on their hands and would rather think about things that are of no relevance. Was this review helpful?
