Oscar winner Angelina Jolie reinvents the modern action hero in "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider." Lara Croft was born into wealth and groomed at the most elite schools. She travels to dangerous and mysterious locales around the globe in search of rare, lost crypts and long-forgotten empires. She speaks numerous languages, is highly trained for combat and answers to no one, obeying only a desire for adventure. But now she must face her greatest challenge yet: to find two halves of an ancient artifact buried in space and time. To possess it means ultimate power for its possessor. But to get there, she must first take on a powerful and dangerous secret society. The fate of mankind rests in the hands of on Angelina Jolie stars as Lara Croft, a tough, sexy, heavily armed adventurer, in this action film based on the wildly popular video game series of the same name. When mercenaries invade her cavernous, hi-tech mansion and steal an ancient relic, Lara journeys to various international locations, including Cambodia, Italy, and the Arctic Circle, to retrieve the strange object and discover its mysterious properties. As Lara's quest becomes increasingly dangerous, it begins to shed light on the life of her deceased father, Lord Croft (Jon Voight, Jolie's real-life father), and a secretive group known as the Illuminati.
Director Simon West's film boasts an energetic techno soundtrack and a charming performance by Jolie, who blasts her way past various monsters, villains, and pitfalls, smirking all the while. (In one of the film's most memorable sequences, she battles dozens of deadly assassins while suspended from a bungee cord in her pajamas.) Perfectly cast as the voluptuous heroine (and sporting a fine British accent), Jolie's commanding presence carries this fast-paced blockbuster, which will appeal to hardcore video game junkies and action movie fans alike.

-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "...Ms. Jolie is having the time of her life....She may be the first woman to get to deliver an action hero's smirk..."

Great Ation Flick and Lara is oh so sexy!!
Enjoyed this DVD, great action story and I feel that Lara was perfectly cast. ALthough it's hard to get your eyes of Lara's exceptional chest, this movie has non stop action (be it far fetched) and some very cool special effects and an awesome sound track.
I enjoyed the various specials on the DVD, the music video was great of U2, and I always like it when DVD's have the music videos with them. The doco's were really interesting and great behind the scenes footage.
So, if you want to see a hot babe, with a great action movie and non stop action, give it a try, good film for the ladies too, as Lara shows that you dont have to be male to be a super hero.
