I went to see this this movie with only one expectation. To see a lot of scenes with Angelina Jolie - and I got what I wanted. Still I was disappointed.

I have to make it clear that I'm not a fan of the computer games. I don't have a special relation to the Lara Croft character. All I know is that she is supposed to be sexy and she is - in the film at least. It's always enjoyable to see a movie with Angelina Jolie but Lara Croft: Tomb Raider doesn't reach her usual standard.

While sitting in the cinema I felt that I was watching a movie made of leftovers. The Story reminded me of Indiana Jones but I think the Tomb Raider script is

made up of some the scenes that were not good enough to be in any of the

three Indiana Jones movies. The attacking statues in the temple in Cambodia

made me think of The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. I think the statues in

Tomb Raider were fired from The Mummy set for being unconvincing. When

they find the first half of the triangle the fluid reminded me of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. It was made i 1991 yet the effects are still better.

By now it should be obvious that I don't like Tomb Raider very much. After an hour I was waiting for it to finish and I wasn't sad when it did. I will give three stars. One goes to Christopher Barrie who plays Lara's butler Hillary. The I give one star to each of Angelina Jolies legs.

She is the only reason to go see Tomb Raider.

"Hotellet" is a very entertaining tv-show about a family hotel in a Danish town. In the first episode the father, Erik Faber, commits suicide by hanging himself and the rest of the family tries to find out what drove him to it. The cast is brilliant and the storyline is a mix of family drama and super natural thriller. It is obvious that the director, Morten Arnfred, has worked with Lars von Trier over the years. The style of "Hotellet" is similar to "The Kingdom" by von Trier. A show worth watching.

With this movie the Wachowski brothers pushed me over the edge of my imagination. During the nineties many films have been called a revolution within the industry but The Matrix is just that.

Our hero Neo is perfectly played by Keanu Reeves in, what I consider to be his best performance till this day. And Laurence Fishburne is just as excellent as Morpheus.

The visual effects are awesome without removing focus from a very good plot. And a good plot is a rarity in effect films like this one.

I surely hope a sequel is on the way. Primarily because it is obvious because of the way the film ends but also because I want more of this.

It's great.
