Angelina Jolie in skintight outfits.......yes, I can see why Andy and Luc picked this for review

Following on from Lara Croft:Tomb Raider, Angelina straps on the pistols again to play the intrepid archaeologist in the followup.... Lara Croft Tomb Raider:The Cradle of Life. Zooming across the sea on a jetski while wearing a skimpy bikini must be one of the most memorable scenes since Ursula Andress in Dr No!

The story's about Lara discovering a mysterious orb which she finds out leads to Pandora's box. Cue the evil scientist (Jonathan Reiss) who wants the orb to find out where Pandora's Box is so he can unleash the powers of the box and use it as the ultimate weapon of mass destruction. Along the way we get Gerard Butler as Lara's former lover.......but is he a goodie or a baddie?

Chris Barrie's in the cast again too as Hillary the faithful manservant of Lara..........are we ever going to see him in a Red Dwarf film?! He doesn't have a big role but it's good to see him again.......if they do another Lara Croft movie give him a bigger role!

Sometimes sequels can be rubbish but this one is pretty good with lots of action......it's good to see an action woman for a change!

Exactly the same Chump my old mucka so your welcome to join anytime

Its not a matter of good or bad .....our reviews are just different Cat and of course that makes them good....who wants us all doing similar reviews... besides I always like the way you do movie reviews

Anyway here's mine for From Dusk Till Dawn

I have to say I love this film its basically about two criminal brothers who take a family hostage in order to get to Mexico, where they have a meeting to get to in a bar/ strip joint there, called the 'Titty Twister' only unknown to them its full of Vampires and they end up fighting for their lives.
Geoge Clooney is great as Seth Gecko but for me Quentin Tarantino steals the show as his sick and twisted brother Richard who just seems on the verge of losing control at every moment particularly when he is with females

. Harvey Keitel is good too as the ex - minister who has lost his faith and daughter Juliette Lewis is okay aswell however she does play the same kind of roles alot.
The fight sequences are fantastic and the whole film builds up extremely well to where they get to the bar where all hell breaks loose....I always thought Keitel's shotgun and baseball bat 'cross' looked cool keeping all the bloodsuckers at bay while blowing the odd one's head off

.
I also think no review of this film could go past without mentioning the fantastic and gorgeous Salma Hayek who does one of the best dances with a snake ever!!!! I love the bit when she puts her hair down, the music gets rocky and she just goes for it.... very sexy!!

A genuinely funny bloodfest..packed with action, horror, sexiness, laughs and some great quotes...like the guy who meets them at the door of the Titty Twister called Chet Pus*y
"All right, pus*y, pus*y, pus*y! Come on in pus*y lovers! Here at the Titty Twister we're slashing pus*y in half! Give us an offer on our vast selection of pus*y, this is a pus*y blow out! All right, we got white pus*y, black pus*y, Spanish pus*y, yellow pus*y, we got hot pus*y, cold pus*y, we got wet pus*y, we got..... [sniffs] smelly pus*y, we got hairy pus*y, bloody pus*y, we got snappin' pus*y, we got silk pus*y, velvet pus*y, Naugahyde pus*y, we even got horse pus*y, dog pus*y, chicken pus*y! Come on, you want pus*y, come on in, pus*y lovers! If we don't got it, you don't want it! Come on in, pus*y lovers!"

or...
Kate: "Are you okay?"
Seth: "Peachy, Kate. The world's my oyster, except for the fact that I just rammed a wooden stake in my brother's heart because he turned into a vampire, even though I don't believe in vampires. Aside from that unfortunate business, everything's hunky-dory."
or...
Seth: "So what are you, Jacob? A faithless preacher? Or a mean motherfuckin' servant of God?"

Great movie well worth a watch!!
