      Boston Globe

      As cumbersome as most films in this subgenre, Angelina Jolie makes it watchable.

      TV Guide Magazine

      It's all about action and ogling -- Jolie's boobs, butt and thighs get so much screen time they deserve their own credits.

      USA Today

      If only the story that surrounds this watchable heroine were as well-stacked.

      Philadelphia Inquirer

      A by-the-numbers extravanganza that journeys from London to Venice to Siberia to Cambodia without ever really going anywhere.

      Rolling Stone

      Slick-dick director Simon West, of "Con Air" and "The General's Daughter" infamy, continues to show no flair at all for blending action and character. Jolie and Lara deserved better. So did we.

      Variety

      Has the distinction of being a major motion picture that's far less imaginative, and quite a bit more stupid, than the interactive game it's based on.

      Chicago Tribune

      A staggeringly bad picture: a shallow, cliche-ridden mess that keeps blowing up on screen.

      Seattle Post-Intelligencer

      Since the expensive new movie version of the popular video game, Tomb Raider, is very true to its origins, it's a colossal bore.
