it seems to me they are making james bond movies with a female bond. they've got the exotic locales, the unbelievable action sequences, the megalomaniac bad guys, the hero(ine) who fits in wherever they go and beds a new partner in each episode. also the team of support staff back home who help out with the technical stuff. unfortunately what these movies lack is the sense of humour that bond films have. its difficult to make a connection with lara, because shes so humourless. also shes so angry, has a wierd love of guns, and does everything in the most dangerous way possible, which might be okay in a video game, but doesn't create a sympathetic character in a film where motivations need to be explained more. Jolie looks good in the part, and can handle the action, but adjust the character and lighten up a little, please!
