The world's most beautiful and athletic archaeologist raids the tombs of 4K Ultra HD with a strong HEVC H.265 encode in Dolby Vision HDR, but the jump from her previous treasure hunt in HD won't likely leave much of an impression.

Nevertheless, the movie was enough of a box-office success to warrant a sequel that amazingly is not any worse but arguably better.įor a more in-depth take on the movie, you can read our review of the Blu-ray SDR HERE. Gravely falling short of its intended goal, the end result is a tepidly entertaining popcorn flick with nearly all the action sequences feeling flat and so orderly structured, it seems easy for the heroine, which in turn, feels routine and lacking any sense of danger. And in that respect, the high-concept movie delivers, mixing practical effects with CG imagery as though aspiring to be the next Indiana Jones franchise.

The point of this 2001 action adventure blockbuster is, after all, about seeing Jolie in skin-tight outfits performing death-defying stunts.

But those familiar with the original source material already know that going into the movie. When Alex's talents prove less than satisfying, Lara is brought on to search for a pair of mystical stone keys called The Triangle while revealing latent feelings for Alex, which leads to a later dire decision.īased on the popular video game about a talented and skilled treasure hunter, the plot is ultimately made up of fantastically silly nonsense - something about the planetary alignment of the solar system and the power of God.

Early on, Craig's Alex West is established as a competitive rival and possibly former lover, but his crooked, gun-for-hire roguishness lands him a job with the Illuminati and the ruthless tactics of Manfred Powell (Iain Glen, better known as Ser Jorah Mormont of Game of Thrones fame). He plays a terribly pointless character, either tacked on simply because director Simon West ( Con Air, The Expendables 2) wanted Craig in the movie or the writers were forced to pen a love interest for Jolie's tough yet voluptuous heroine Lara Croft. Looking back at the movie, it's easy to see why Craig's performance is unmemorable. Over the last couple decades, Daniel Craig has become such an established actor - in large part due to his role as James Bond - that I always forget he once starred in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider alongside marquee headliner Angelina Jolie.
