DVD Lara Croft Tomb Raider - The Cradle of Life (Widescreen Edition)
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, The Cradle of Life is certainly better than its 2001 predecessor, but its appeal is mostly aimed at fans of the video games that inspired both movies. That pretty much leaves you with some fun but familiar action sequences, and the ever-alluring sight of Angelina Jolie (reprising her title role) as she swims, swings, kicks, shoots, flies, jet-skis, motorcycles, and free-falls her way toward saving the world, this time by making sure that a grimacing villain (Ciarán Hinds) doesn't open Pandora's Box (yes, the actual mythological object) and unleash a deadly plague that will "weed out" the global population. Exotic locations add to Jolie's own coolly erotic appeal, but we're left wondering if this franchise has anywhere else to go. --Jeff Shannon
Review(s): DVD Lara Croft Tomb Raider - The Cradle of Life (Widescreen Edition)
Angelina Jolie shines in this movie!
I really like this movie. there is alot of action from beginning to end. one of the stunts are pretty cool, like when Lara Croft flips her Jet-Ski and lands right side up. it sucked when Lara had to shoot Terry Sheridan, but he wouldn't listen to her. this movie was longer than the first Tomb Raider, and more exciting too. Angelina should make another Tomb Raider movie.
Lara Croft the cradle of Life
Angelina Jolie is one of the toughest women on the big screen. Always a pleasure to watch her shine in action adventure.

Angelina is back in the sequel to Tomb Raider one. she was defiently born to play the part. special effects were bigger, action scenes where difficult for lara this time, and the locations were exotic.
stunts were peffectly blended in. the only thing i didn't get was lara's new boy-friend. i hated his fake accent(sounds fake) and his acting, too blah. the special features i the dvd are nicely put together with alot of behind the scenes stuff.

Like the video game series it's based on, Tomb Raider is best enjoyed for its physical strategies, since even casual scrutiny of story details will induce a headache. It's more concerned with puzzles than plot, populated with characters that don't have personalities so much as attitudes. It's silly and somber at the same time, but as a franchise vehicle for Angelina Jolie in the title role of relic hunter Lara Croft, this is packaged entertainment at its most agreeable, ambitious in scope and scale, and filled with the kind of globetrotting adventure that could make Jolie the best thing that's happened to action movies since Indiana Jones. Could being the operative word here, because Tomb Raider can't match any of Steven Spielberg's celebrated joyrides, but the...

The Roman bath scene with Gerard Butler(Attila) makes it all worth while.
It is also a great movie. I find it humorous and it has just enough fact and fiction mixed together to make it interesting. More Info about this DVD Director(s): Dick Lowry DVD Release Date: Released the 05 November 2002 Usually ships in 24 hours

As a director, Wes Craven has been able to infuse his horror movies with humor and some smart, often genuinely creepy, thrills, even on his lowest-budgeted films. As a producer of horror movies, well, his record has been spotty at best. Craven tapped his longtime editor Patrick Lussier to direct Dracula 2000, and the movie ends up with all the good and bad of "a Wes Craven production." A modern-day update of the Dracula legend, the script has some genuinely good ideas. Christopher Plummer (The Insider) takes a relatively juicy role as Van Helsing, owner of an antiques shop specializing in ancient weapons. He takes exception to how his namesake was portrayed in Bram Stoker's classic novel, which he's more than happy to tell his assistant (Jonny Lee Miller, "Sick Boy" from...

Just enough of Michael Crichton's novel survives in Timeline to make it a passable popcorn thriller. It's likely that Crichton fans will lament the shallowness of director Richard Donner's film, and its gee-whiz style of acting lays waste to any scientific credibility that Crichton's scenario might have retained. Still, the Crichton formula is a sturdy one, following the model of Westworld and Jurassic Park by involving a small band of adventurers in a fantastical realm of danger and death. In this case, a group of archaeologists and combat experts (led by Paul Walker and Frances O'Connor) use a "3-D fax machine" (so much for technobabble!) to time-travel back to France in 1357, in hopes of retrieving Walker's father (Billy Connolly) and returning safely to the...
