So there was a sequel to the first Tomb Raider film and believe it or not its even more ridiculous and over-the-top than the last one. To illustrate my point within the first 10minutes of Lara Croft being on screen she punches a shark in the face. I mean what on earth, not even James Bond would do that stuff it’s stupid so yeah. One of the most fatal flaws with these films is her character, nobody likes the person who can do everything. has everything, gets everything. Plus Angelina Jolie totally cannot act. The story is again totally pointless and in no way riveting. It’s like anytime Hollywood has a chance to do a good script or an opportunity to create a good film franchise they just totally undermine that with unecessary, unrealistic action.

So whats the terrible story to uncompany this terrible sequel, well Lara Croft finds a map to pandoras box something she uncovers from a buried underwater temple. Unfortunately the orb ends up in the hands of Jonathon Reiss, a scientist who deals in biological weapons, he intends to use the map to find pandoras box and sell it too the highest bidder.

The film is just totally dull and sometimes downright laughable, but never during the comedic moments. I just find it hard to believe that the first film even deserved a second. Another film to avoid if it’s on the telly.

Omg this film is so ugly. I seriously did not want to review it. The only time the animation looks good is in the flashback sequences the rest of the time its just ugly like seriously ugly. It was totally unecessary to distinguish between the flashbacks and the presents because the characters clearly established that they were talking about past events. It just ruined the film completely. It’s not a good film it’s really terrible. I expected it to be okay after watching the other dead space film but no this is just terrible. Don’t bother to watch it. It was all really pointless, granted it filled in some information between Dead Space 1 and 2 but seriously your better off just checking out the internet for the information because the internet will not scar you. I didn’t bound with any of the characters, I wasn’t interested in the story. It’s just a terrible film. It has so many flaws, the first major flaw is one of the characters daughter vivian, in the flashback sequences she’s white yet in the rest of the film she clearly isn’t like what on earth happened there she just kept switching ethnicities. This film just confuses me, like who worked on this film and thought that they were making something good because it’s clearly terrible. This review is starting to just feel like a culmination of insults but unfortunately thats all I can say about this film. You make a crappy film, you’ll get a crappy review.
