Orphaned heiress, English aristocrat and intrepid archaeologist, Lara Croft, embarks on a dangerous quest to retrieve the two halves of an ancient artifact which controls time before it falls into the wrong hands. As an extremely rare planetary alignment is about to occur for the first time in 5,000 years, the fearless tomb raider will have to team up with rival adventurers and sworn enemies to collect the pieces, while time is running out. But, in the end, who can harness the archaic talisman's unlimited power?

Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
In the department of numbing ineptitude, the pacing runs a neck-and-neck race with the dialogue.

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

rotten:
Loud, banal, empty, frenzied, plasticized, flavorless, drab, violent in a bloodless way and sexy in a sexless way.

So pandering and pebble-brained you'd guess it had been test-screened on barnyard animals.

There is more tension in Jolie's T-shirts than in the dramatic action.
