A lacklustre start to what is nonetheless sure to be an extremely lucrative franchise.

All the world can blow up around Lara Croft--and it does here--but who cares when there's no reason to fear for her life?

Displaying boobs, brawn, and brain (in that order), Angelina Jolie renders a splashy perfromance but the movie, which is like a video-game turned big-screen entertainment, is not good; another missed opportunity to have a femme-driven action-adventure

Jolie kept her side of the deal, everyone else owes her big time.

Like her gaming counterpart, she's all pretty eye candy without much of a soul or even an interesting personality.
