You're feeling like a cunt today.
DNR, Nat.
3rtful can u hop off nate's dick for a second? ill get you a coupon so you can afford a life that doesn't involve being this creepy little internet shadow that lurks behind the walls of a hollow ego and sense of entitlement.
Is this a well-known movie? Because I don't know it.
Suzanne - it's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
And that's Iain Glen, who's now playing Ser Jorah Mormont in Game of Thrones.
I just saw part of this on TV a few days ago, and marveled at how gorgeous Angelina was and how much fun her character was.
I thought Tomb Raider (the first one) was pure Entertainment. No more, no less.
Jolie was very good there. Really kicking some (bad) asses.
Sonja: To an extent, though it also doesn't make that much sense, even by movie logic. The robot action beat bookends? The in-house bungee? The giant stone statues coming to life with the barest possible explanation? The Mummy Returns isn't a great movie or anything, but it's at least a cohesive sensical narrative.
Volvagia:
Entertainment doesn't mean it has to explain everything. *shrug*
Films can be entertaining even if they don't explain ANYTHING.
This is a good one for Father's Day too, as Jon Voigt plays Angelina's dad in the film. It was nice to see them together as a loving daughter and father.
