She must travel the globe, from Greece to Hong Kong to Kenya and beyond to get to the box before it's found by a maniacal scientist (Ciaran Hinds) whose plan is to use it for mass annihilation.

For this adventure, Lara recuits her ex-partner - Terry Sheridan (Gerard Butler) - a dangerous mercenary who has previously betrayed Lara and their county. She knows he's the best for the mission, but can she trust him again?

Join her as she races through furious hand-to-hand battles, blazing shoot-outs end breathtaking sky-diving escapes to try to save the ancient artifact.. and mankind's future.

Nudity Factor: None

Of Note: In the previous film, Angelina Jolie had to wear bra padding in order for her bust size to measure up to the videogame character's. Jolie wears considerably less (and possibly no) padding in this film, as the decision was made to give Lara more realistic dimensions.

Recommendation: Lara Croft Tomb Raider - Batman Begins

Review by: Jason James
Rating:
Like the first one Angelina Jolie is perfect as Lara Croft. If she was born to play one part it was this one. I am not sure if this is good or bad but when I got done watching this the first time I wanted more. I am not sure if the movie needed more or if it was that it was so good I didn't want it to end. If the movie has a weak point it is that some of the sets do look like sets. The underwater temple looked more like a set then and actual underwater temple. In reality if this is all I have to complain about then it is a pretty good movie. I would recommend starting with the first one if you have not seen that one and then watch this one. You won't be lost but I think you will enjoy it more having watched them in order. I think this is one to have on the self and is worth picking up.
