A thoroughly numb and insulting excuse for an adventure.

| Original Score: D- | Apr 30, 2024

Where's the quickening of the pulse, the racing of the heart, the holding of the breath? With Lara Croft Tomb Raider, the most a viewer can expect is the numbing of the brain and the closing of the eyelids.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 6, 2021

Jolie was in tip top shape for this role, and she did a very good job bringing this video game icon to life.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 1, 2021

Although the idea of a female adventurer (essentially a counterpart to Indiana Jones) sounds exploitable, the execution of her feats are incredibly pitiful.

| Original Score: 1/10 | Oct 9, 2020

Angelina Jolie underscores Lara's genuinely aggressive appetite for destruction with a sweet, reserved composure that grows on you throughout.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 31, 2020

Bad is most ways that you can rate a film on, but at the same time, get some friends around and shut your brain off and you can have a good laugh at it.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 6, 2020

Based on the popular PlayStation video game series, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider should have stayed just that - a video game.

| Nov 13, 2019

Jolie's screen presence is so magnetic, and the aesthetics of the film are so true to the games, that it is almost impossible not to get carried away by it. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 31, 2016

Lara Croft: Tomb Raider is incredibly silly. So silly in fact, that you just have to respect it.

| Feb 3, 2016

Some great action sequences, but not much else.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 29, 2010

[A] movie based on a video game that's unafraid to look absurd but lacks the self-conviction needed to come off as camp.

| Apr 12, 2010

So inferior as art and entertainment.

| Apr 12, 2010

How do you have a pitch perfect actress play the role and then offer no rewards for fans that have been waiting for this for years?

| Apr 29, 2009

Even by video-game-movie standards, this is an arrogantly, almost smugly empty and incoherent mess.

| Original Score: F | Sep 24, 2007

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?

| Original Score: D+ | Sep 16, 2007

It might be easier to list the things that were good about Tomb Raider, but little comes to mind.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 14, 2007

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

| Original Score: C | Nov 15, 2006

A jerky, fragmented tale that jumps from one exotic location to the next without any explanation or flow.

| Feb 9, 2006

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 6, 2005

Worth watching.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 30, 2005
