Fun

I've never played the game, but movies like this have always been fun for me. Angelina was amazing, my childhood crush.

Adventures and action-packed in charge of a video-game heroine

The movie centers on Lara Croft (Angelina Jolie) who is assigned by the British Intelligence -MI6- to discover the Pandora box that the baddies (Ciaran Hinds and Til Schweiger) want to find with the purpose of ruling the world . She is helped by an imprisoned mercenary (Gerard Butler) that will be freed , and two sympathetic underlings who appeared in the first part (Noah Taylor and Christhopher Barrie) . They'll have to confront amount of dangers , adventures and risks until reach their aims .

Run-of-the-mill action film because from the beginning to the final the frenetic action , thrills and fast movement are continued and unstopped . The picture blends emotion , intrigue , thriller , suspense , rip-roaring scenes and a little bit of violence when the fights happen . It is a film pretty bemusing and entertaining . It's a typical modern action film : continuous struggles in leaps and bounds , running men while are shooting and interminable pursuits . Besides , there are spellbound landscapes of various countries where the starring are traveling around the world to resolve the enigmas . The ending confrontation amongst the protagonists and enemies on the Kilimanjaro's skirts is breathtaking . The picture is similar to previous part with the difference in this latter there is an adventure chum (Gerard Butler) playing a type of ¨buddy movie¨ role. Thus , the storyline is basically a rehash of the former picture . Just as in the first film, there are several scenes in which the live-action Lara mimics are mingled with the computer generator effects . The film attained moderated success at box office , less than the first one , and not as good as the anterior . I don't know if the producers are going to make a third part .

David Tattersall's cinematography is glittering and glimmer as is well reflected on the awesome and impressive outdoors in charge of the production designer Petruccelli . Alan Silvestri's music is atmospheric and marvelous . The motion picture was well directed by Jan De Bont (Speed) . It is very spectacular , it is a film for adrenaline lovers . The yarn will appeal to Angelina Jolie and Lara Croft videogames fans.

Witless and convoluted action adventure sequel.

I liked the first Lara Croft movie, but I found this sequel awful on the most part. Angelina Jolie is great at the stunts, the stunts by the way were fine and actually one of the three redeeming qualities to this, but her acting was below par, lacking warmth and charisma. Another redeeming quality is some of the locations. Ciaran Hinds hams it up, a term I try to avoid using, as the villain, Doctor Jonathan Reiss, and one of the better actors in the movie, he was pretty entertaining, despite his senseless dialogue. Gerard Butler and Jon Voight have little to do, and came across as useless. The script was largely unfunny and lacked conviction, and the plot, about the search for Pandora's Box, makes little sense mostly. All in all, not absolutely abysmal, and may be entertaining for die hard fans, but this sequel for me was a misfire. 3/10 Bethany Cox
