Tomb Raider

Starring: Angelina Jolie, Jon Voight, Noah Taylor, and Daniel Craig

Directed by: Simon West

Synopsis: Movie version of the popular video game series in which Lara Croft is racing to find two pieces of a triangle that has the power to control time. An evil archaeologist wants the power for himself, but Lara wants to destroy it.

My thoughts: This was by far one of the biggest movie let downs of my life. The dialog is silly, the actions scenes are incoherent and jumbled, and the plot is sooooo farfetched, even for a fantasy movie. The first 20 minutes are fairly enjoyable, but the rest rapidly falls into garbage land. Jolie did make a great Croft, however.

Score: 4 out of 10
