There definitley will be a sequel. Angelina Jolie is signed to play Lara Croft in 2 more movies! :D:D:D

I thought it sucked. I\'m sorry, to anyone who liked it. But, for me, it seemed to be just a "mindless summer movie" and I hate those. So, needless to say durin\' the lenght of the movie I was wishing to get out of there.

Poor storyline. Poor ending. Poor character build-up.


The only thing I can say is nice action and ok special effects.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Tomb Raider...

Was #1 for the weekend, grossing $48.2 million.
Was the biggest opening weekend ever for a female-starring feature film.
Was the best opening ever for a movie based on a video game.
Was the third-best June opening weekend ever.
Per screen average was $14,570 in 3,308 theaters.

I didn\'t see it, maybe next weekend.

One bad thing about the story line (or more). Well...........her dad anted her to smash the triangle, she got it and she gave it to the bad guys!She liked that other tomb raider?SINCE WHEN!?

 She was a bit nutty dont ya think? In the scene when she is using the dogs to get out of the cave, whats she standing on and why is she laughing?!


 In the ancient temple and in the dead zone who was that little girl?They couldve had more stuff bout her in it.



 In the temple how can she be strong enough to drop kick the stone thing and make it hit the big thing?



        But, nice special efects.


oh ya and when time was frozen if she was gonna just kill the guy why didnt she shoot him instead of just moving  the daggers direction?

"Well...........her dad anted her to smash the triangle, she got it and she gave it to the bad guys!"

- As a tomb Raider, she was curious to see what would happen when the triangle was joined, and she always wanted to turn back time and save her father.

"She liked that other tomb raider?SINCE WHEN!?"

- Apparently she knew him before, and had a possible relationship, remeber "Always a pleasure" when she looked down at his crotch?

"She was a bit nutty dont ya think? In the scene when she is using the dogs to get out of the cave, whats she standing on and why is she laughing?!"

- I\'m sure that\'s a little Angelina Jolie peeking through.

"In the ancient temple and in the dead zone who was that little girl?They couldve had more stuff bout her in it."

- I\'m thinking she was a spirit, guarding the triangle, leading Laura to it so that she sould keep it safe.  But being a spirit she also knew waht Laura was going to do with it.

"In the temple how can she be strong enough to drop kick the stone thing and make it hit the big thing?"

- I wish I could do that! :)

"Oh ya and when time was frozen if she was gonna just kill the guy why didnt she shoot him instead of just moving  the daggers direction?"

- But wasn\'t it cool, the whole struggling against time and the blood and all?

Cuz the blade would end up hitting the other Tomb Raider, and I guess she didn\'t wanna waste a bullet if she could move the dagger(cuz shes really practical :D)
