Tomb Raider 2

<div class="IPBDescription">review, no spoilers</div> I've heard that Angelia Jolie refused to be in the 2nd Tomb Raider movie, unless they made the plot better. Which... they did. In my opinion the movie isn't GOOD, its O.K.. Acting could have been better on the side kicks and evil enemies, but she pulled it off nicely. There was a lot of slow-motion, too much infact. There was slow-motion when there shouldn't have been.

The paper here gave Tomb Raider 2 a D- , I would give it a C. Its better than the first, but not great.

    I just got back from seeing it. I agree, it was good, but not great. There were some definite cool parts in it, but I feel like nothing really amazing or special happened. There was a nice setup and some cool ancient artifacts and stuff, but none of this potential really took off. I understand at the end, where they tried to have an emotional situation with Lara making a tough choice, but I was honestly expecting a more exciting climax.

    If you need a movie to see, though, see this. It wasn't that bad, really, and if you like Angelina Jolie, all the better.

    Narr i dont agree people goto watch a film for the fun aspect not that people jumping around in swim suits lol hence the reason people like films such as pred,aliens,matrix altho matrix did have people jumping around in latex but thats for another time. Anyway people go to have fun watching the movie.

    And yes i did know your post was all sarcasm but oh well.

    Tomb Raider is so poor its not even funny.

    Only redeeming quality is Chris Barrie.

    It had less gratuitous breast shots then the 1st one, which was pretty hard to watch because she kept shifting from a C cup to a DD cup every scene. At least in the 2nd one she got some of those none-variable implants <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I didn't really like either movies, near the end it just got way to boring for me. Especially with all the emotional crap, it looked like they tried for a darker feel but when it counted they kept her making panzy goodie goodie choices.

    Looks like I will have to wait for Matrix 3 and that 2004 Tarentino action flick (in which it is said, 100 people die in a single action scene) to quench my action thirst.

    I agree with Josiah, i only really enjoyed the 1st film because of Chris Barrie, I am a massive red dwarf fan, shame he only really got 1 action scene, but i heard in the 2nd one he got a much bigger part, was it that big?

    Angelina Jolie is a creepy woman. I would not go just because she's in it.

    Lets put it this way, if they only reason you are going to see the film is Chris Barrie - don't go, the rest of the film is so bad so to outweigh the Chris Barrie Factor ™
  • Mr-StabbyMr-Stabby Join Date: 2003-03-11 Member: 14401Banned
    is his part bigger though, they said it would be

    I mean he delayed the filming of Red Dwarf the Movie for this sh*te, he better have a long part

    The script is 300 pages. Although I would enjoy a 4 hour action flick, after drinking a X-Large coke my bladder wouldnt be having too much fun.

    You know she's a sato-masicst (sp?), I heard that for a while she wore a vile of Billy Bob's blood, around her neck. She is pretty freaky.
  • TenSixTenSix Join Date: 2002-11-09 Member: 7932Members
    They used to wear viles of eachothers blood in a capsul around their necks. Which only rates as a 3 on my wierdness meter, meh. She also used to be into cutting herself, and once had a knife fight (on purpose) with her lover before they had sex. Or something along those lines, I dunno, I like her <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Note: This was all in an interview she did a week ago, you should know this! Pfft!

    Go watch the movie "Gia" if you want gratuitous nudity by Ms. Jolie's part. Spend $2.50 renting it at the video store instead of $7.50 at the theatre. Plus you can fast forward to the nude scene, pervert.

    By the way, thanks for the DSL tool thing it speed up my fps rate. Not my modem speed, but my fps rate and that in my book is O. K.

    Except Gia doesn't really have much nudity of A.J.



    I'm gonna see Tomb Raider 2 because it's a fun movie to watch, I don't go to it expecting to say "wow, what a mind f***."
