Lara Kicks Ass! Review ofLara Croft - Tomb Raider 2: The Cradle Of Life (DVD)by
the_mad_cabbie
Advantages: Excellent adventure yarn. Great stunts. Georgeous leading lady. Disadvantages: Not a lot. (But you wouldn't think it reading the poor reviews!
...back in the early 1990’s, Lara Croft has been a firm favourite in the ‘mad cabbie’ household.

Advantages: action packed, amazing special effects Disadvantages: Some may find it all too predictable.
...I was excited about seeing Lara Croft's character being transformed into a real life character on the big screen!
