184 - Lara Croft: Tomb Raider

In this action-packed episode of Reel Comic Heroes, the hosts dust off their dual pistols and dive headfirst into the early 2001 adventure phenomenon that was Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, starring Angelina Jolie. Based on the wildly popular video game series, this film promised to bring one of gaming's most iconic characters to life — but did it live up to the hype?

Join us as we explore the film's ambitious blend of myth, mysticism, and globe-trotting action, discuss Jolie's star-making turn as the fearless archaeologist, and debate whether the movie's flashy stunts and early CGI hold up today.

Grab your map, load your gear, and get ready for an expedition through ancient tombs, British manor intrigue, and the relic-hunting nostalgia of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider!
