Tomb Raider was... a typical summer movies. Naturally, you don't walk into the theater expecting to watch War and Peace... which is why I felt like screaming at the two old women who were complaining how stupid the movie was and that there wasn't enough romance. What the f^ck?! You don't watch Tomb Raider for its love story. Why even bother buying tickets then! I felt like coming up to them to recommend watching Moulin Rouge, but I doubt they'd have the patience to wait out the silly parts before it gets to the meat of the story.

Anyways, back to the movie. Crap storyline, but that was to be expected. Angelina Jolie is perfect for the role of Lara Croft; anatomy and attitude wise. It was pretty funny to see that her Billy-Bob tattoo wasn't completely hidden under her body makeup. Action scenes were pretty impressive, although nothing particularly stands out. The bungee sequence in her house was a bit disappointing (I was expecting CrouchingTiger-style jumps, leaps, bounds, etc.). The ending was a bit too quick where she destroys the triangle of the light (big spoiler there -_-) with a single bullet... but it did remind me of Zelda a bit. The part about obtaining the triangle anyways. Overall, nice action flick.

Ako-Aya seems to have liked the movie too.
