Okay, they’re trying to de-sexualize the female action hero - but have they chosen an awful premise. Lara Croft embarks on a nonsensical adventure to find an intentionally hidden ancient Japanese tomb, begging the question why those who hid it left clues for it to be found later. The Indiana Jones rip-off aspect knows no end, as every booby trap (almost down to the rolling boulder) is copied here, and the climactic showdown is between Croft, her dad, and the villain ... in a cave! And didn’t James Cameron already create a much deeper version of this action heroine in Aliens?
