I think I saw that movie when it was called Tomb Raider. "The goal is to create a movie that will be to Raiders of the Lost Ark what the Bourne movies are to James Bond movies: a character-driven, treasure-hunting thriller." If the reference to Bourne means a lot of handheld shakey-cam, count me out. I had to turn my head away from the screen for parts of Bourne 3. Someone needs to remember these films will be seen on the Big Screen, not just on 42" plasma TVs that are 10 ft (or more) away from the couch. I agree Kidman is not the type. If she wants action-movie paychecks, she needs to find something like the Jamie Lee Curtis part from True Lies. She needs a character who evolves into an action hero during the movie.
