Welcome to Tomb Raider: Tombs, Raids, and Lara’s Unbelievable Adventures, the movie review podcast where we dig deep into the two completely different Tomb Raider movies—the 2001 original with Angelina Jolie and the 2018 reboot with Alicia Vikander. We’ll be deciphering the mysteries of ancient tombs, debating how many times Lara Croft can survive a near-death experience before we start to wonder if she’s secretly part cat, and asking the all-important question: Why does Lara always look so ridiculously perfect after falling into a waterfall or being chased by explosions?
Grab your dual pistols, strap on your survival gear, and prepare for a wild journey as we compare and contrast these two totally unrelated interpretations of the most famous fictional female archaeologist (and action hero) on the planet.
Two long time friends, one podcast.
This is The Deja Review.
Enjoy the episode and remember to like, follow and tell your friends.
