Continuity mistake: In the scene where Lara Croft escapes from the bad guy by jumping head first down a rope, look closely at her hair. As she runs to the rope, her hair is in a pony tail swinging freely. But as she heads down the rope, you can see her pony tail is bound with several elastic bands, giving it the appearance of being braided. The scene then cuts to the bad guys leaning over the rope and then back to Laura Croft and once again her hair is swinging freely. (00:47:10)

-70/10. This isn't a good movie. Let's face it, Angelina Jolie can't act. Her only OK movie was Girl Interrupted. I view that as also overrated. This is just a bad pointless sequel to a pointless movie that could've killed off the video games to movies fad. Some, like Street Fighter, Resident Evil franchise, Super Mario Bros, and Silent Hill, succeed because the people in charge care about the source material. This movie though is on the same level as Max Payne, lousy.

Trivia: A man actually doubles for Angelina Jolie during the "squirrel suit" jump sequence - he is one of the two inventors of the suit, the other doubling for Gerard Butler.
Question: Exactly how plausible was the jump from the skyscraper that Terry and Lara did with their suits? With those very small "wings" or whatever the proper name for those yellow extensions is that were attached to their suits, in reality wouldn't they have plummeted to the ground instead of gliding away?
Answer: Very plausible. The suits exist - they are called glide suits or wingsuits and lots more info can be found with a quick Google search.
