Lara Croft: Tomb Raider/Lara Croft: Tomb Raider - The Cradle of Life

This DVD 2-pack includes two high-octane action films based on the the wildly popular video game series LARA CROFT: TOMB RAIDER. Angelina Jolie is perfectly cast as the voluptuous title character, a tough, sexy, heavily-armed archaeologist who travels the world in search of lost relics, battling an arsenal of monsters, villains, and pitfalls along the way. In the first film, mercenaries invade Lara's hi-tech mansion and steal an ancient relic, forcing her to journey to various international locations--including Cambodia, Italy, and the Arctic Circle--to retrieve the strange object and discover its mysterious properties. In the film's sequel, THE CRADLE OF LIFE, Lara has made perhaps the most important archaeological discovery in history: an orb that leads to the mythical Pandora's Box. Unfortunately, the orb falls into the hands of an evil scientist who deals in killer viruses and hopes to sell the secrets of the box as the ultimate weapon. In both films, Lara is a walking advertisement for "girl power": she's brilliant, athletic, courageous, and saucy--and always righteous in her quests to save mankind.
