But then she asks him to send across the file. However, when Lara asks her assistant to decode the key and send across the sounds (they discovered that the key was actually sound) she couldn’t understand it. For instance, all the mad dash around China was simply to secure a golden Orb and decode it. I wonder what it is with movie-makers the moment the words ‘archaeologist’ and ‘Chinese’ are mentioned in the same breath, all of a sudden the Chinese terracotta warriors appear out of thin air! Is that the only archeological artifact that the Chinese have to boast about?Īnyway, what really irritated me was the complete disregard towards any kind of technological impossibilities exhibited by the movie. The action sequences are quite interesting – there is one with the Chinese terracotta warriors and the hired Chinese goon who is trying to kill Lara, which I thought was pretty good. As usual, there is the evil billionaire who wants to unleash it on the world and of course, there is Lara’s love-interest (albeit, ‘ex’) hanging around saving Lara from dastardly plots of the evil billionaire. I won’t bother boring you with the plot as it is extremely predictable – Babe archaeologist Lara gets it into her head that she can save the worked from doom by locating the Pandora’s Box, which is supposedly hidden in a site code-named ‘The Cradle of Life’. And boy, oh, boy, I think I was lucky that I never watched it till now. Today, I finally got to watch it on the ZStudio channel. Lara Croft Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life was one movie I always wanted to watch, ever since its release in 2003.
