The ending is very anti-climatic and predictable, with no major twists in plot. In terms of picture quality, the final scenes of the movie are very disappointing, although the high-tech equipment Croft uses is somewhat impressive. This is a bit confusing because Croft is supposed to be fighting for life/humanity, but actually SMILES as she kills the enemy. Croft seems undaunted by her brushes with death and actually seems to get a major thrill from the action. The movie has some scenes of rather gruesome violence/death, especially near the beginning. The movie cleary supports an evolutionary worldview and several of the main characters (including Croft) have a rather disturbing disregard for death. Supposedly the box now only has “death” inside of it instead of “life,” which leaves the viewer wondering throughout the whole film where all the “life-giving” material/powers went and where the “death-giving” material/powers came from. Lara Croft goes off in search of “Pandora’s Box” (where Croft contends all life began) in order to keep it from falling into the wrong hands. Cradle of Life is quite theologically challenged, as are most modern movies.
