Hopefully, this should give fans a proper and canon explanation of what happened between the two games. The story for Tomb Raider: The Myth of El Hawa was written by Murti Schofield ( TRAOD). The problem was, as a result of time pressure, a lot of information and scenes were cut, including what happened to Lara while she was trapped under the ruins and how the heroine escaped. While the fifth installment didn't add much to the storyline, the sixth edition titled Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness had a really good story. What exactly happened and why the need for an animated film? In Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, the final scenes had Lara Croft trapped under the ruins of a temple with her fate uncertain. For those who can't make it to the screening, there's a YouTube Live Premiere scheduled on October 21. Die-hard fans know that this is the city where the franchise had its start. Titled Tomb Raider: The Myth of El Hawa, it's premiering on October 15 in Derby.
TOMB RAIDER FILM WINDOWS
How can you not love Lara Croft jumping onto a swinging obelisk to smash a glass eye that holds the key to time, or sledding thru an ice cave being pulled by dogs? Or the scene where the villains jump through her castle windows as she rappels around the walls, smashing chandeliers and pistol-whipping bad guys? What's a girl to do but hop on her motorbike, take a guy out sideways, and race off at 100 miles an hour? Excellent.A new animated film is set to answer some of the burning questions that Tomb Raiders fans may have between Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness.
TOMB RAIDER FILM MOVIE
Okay, maybe the parts with her father (real-life papa Jon Voight) were a little over the top, but since the whole movie is just eye-candy anyway they seemed to fit.
TOMB RAIDER FILM FULL
She seemed smart, brave, and composed as well as full of emotion. Angelina Jolie made the perfect Lara Croft her facial expressions and sly smirks added a personality to the flick that I can only imagine the video game is missing. We learn that it's a creation of Bryce, used to keep Croft on her toes. Instead of outrunning a giant boulder, Croft squares off against a mechanical monster, a robotic menace that seems to come out of nowhere.
The film opens like "Raiders of the Lost Ark," with Lara Croft deep inside one of those musty, dusty tombs. She's guided by the spirit (both literally and figuratively) of her late adventurer father, Lord Croft (Jon Voight), and assisted by an archaeologist Alex West (Daniel Craig) and cyber-geek creator Bryce (Noah Taylor). There's enough conviction in her performance to make you want to believe in Lara Croft, the spunky heiress is who is equally at home in her spacious mansion or within the catacombs of a lost tomb. At least Jolie understands the limitations of the script. The script jumps from one expected moment to the next, never apologizing for its lack of originality. It's controlled chaos, utterly lacking in surprise. It deals with end of the world stuff, but it never feels apocalyptic. The script is a patchwork of ideas that plays like a Greatest Hits collection of other films. Taking its cue from the video game, the film's screenplay is more of a puzzle than a plot. With her mock British accent, Jolie is a lot of fun as the adventurer-archaeologist who is equal parts Bruce Wayne and Indiana Jones, but with a much better body. I watched an interview with Jolie in which she said that she really "became Lara Croft". I loved the performance of Angelina Jolie, who brings the computer game heroine Lara Croft to life. "Tomb Raider" is a harmless diversion that should please its core audience.
