(Rated PG-13)
Using computer animation to create an imaginary into futuristic worlds, works better than its semi-lame plot. Based on the popular video game series, this story transports viewers to the year 2065 where the earth is overrun with evil aliens who are determined to destroy the planet and obliterate humankind. Only one woman, Dr. Aki Ross (Mulan’s Ming-Na) can devise a plan to defeat the aliens, however she is dying from a fatal disease. Alec Baldwin stars as her teammate but somehow the movie lacks what “Tomb Raider” delivers. Maybe it’s human beings as this story is the first ever to star photo-realistic, computer-generated humans.
