Once again the title ought properly to begin with “Lara Croft,” but as I did the first one wrong and I’m too lazy to change it, I’m doing this one wrong as well just to be consistent. I don’t know why after sitting through all the Indiana Jones movies and other productions of similar ilk (not least of which the first Croft movie) that now all of a sudden the destruction of priceless archeological sites and artifacts bothers me, but it does. Fortunately, trashing the past is a relatively small portion of this picture. Unfortunately, the bulk of the production is given over to videogame-esque gunfights and supernatural nonsense so ridiculous that the first one looks like a documentary in comparison. The result is a soulless waste of an action movie. See if desperate
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
