* TheAlcatraz: Barla Kala prison in Kazakhstan, where Terry Sheridan is imprisoned. The novelization goes into some detail about it, stating that the prison is a dumping ground for what are viewed as the most dangerous terrorists in the world: "where the civilized world sent those who would never learn to be civilized." The fact that Sheridan was imprisoned in the same place as literal al-Qaeda members gives us some idea of how his government views him.

What makes him this trope is that he has no intention of letting nature decide who these best specimens are, but instead is planning to manufacture an antidote and save what ''he'' considers to be the best: "heads of corporations, heads of state."

* ArtifactOfDeath: The PandorasBox, treated as a container for a superplague.
* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The roaring (and whimpering) shark.
* BigBad: Jonathan Reiss.
* BoxedCrook: How Lara acquires the services of her old lover Terry Sheridan.
* ChainedToABed: PlayedWith. Lara seduces Terry to let his guard down and cuffs his arm to the foot of her bed. [[CasualKink He initially thinks she's getting kinky]] but she quickly establishes she's interrogating him.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Some of the characters of the first film weren't mentioned.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Jonathan Reiss [[spoiler: is thrown into the acid that surrounds the cradle and is melted alive, screaming all the while.]]

-->'''Lara:''' Hello, boys. You're all wet.
* DurableDeathtrap: Taken UpToEleven.
* HollywoodGeography: If the establishing shots of Croft's travels in China were to be taken literally, it means that she landed somewhere in the Yangtze River Valley in Hubei (in south-central China), rode a motorcycle all the way to the Great Wall in northern China, then turned around and went back south to Xi'an for the fight in the Terracotta Tomb, and then went to Shanghai as she originally intended--that's about 4000 kilometers in rough terrain and she covered it all in a single afternoon.

* NonActionBigBad: Reiss is a scientist, not a fighter, and lets his men do all the dirty work. Even when he fights Lara at the very end, he only lasts as long as he does because he's got a gun and she doesn't. Even after being shot in the arm, Lara still manages to get in several good hits and toss him into a pool of acid.
* PillowPistol: Terry goes to put his gun under his pillow, but apparently the bed was already taken by Lara as there was already a pair of pistols under the pillow.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: More like Real Life Designs the Costumes, this film puts Lara in more outfits with longer sleeves. This was done because the makeup used to conceal Angelina Jolie's tattoos during the filming of the first film was not as effective as it was supposed to be.
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: The establishing character moment for the bioterrorist/scientist villain, [[LargeHam Jonathan Reiss]], is him in a private jet with his clients. He [[BloodFromTheMouth poisons]] one who snitched on him to Interpol, intoning "this is the sound of a traitor dying" as he gurgles his last.
* SacrificialLamb: Gus Petraki and his sons Nicholas and Jimmy are friends of Lara Croft and they do underwater archaeology with her. They are killed in the very beginning of the film just to show that the ones who try to get PandorasBox are dangerous.
* SealedEvilInACan: PandorasBox - MeaningfulName, isn't it?
* SexySurfacingShot: Lara climbing out of the ocean into her boat in a bikini.
* ThreateningShark: Parodied, when surrounded by sharks, Lara Croft punches one in the nose and proceeds to ride it to the surface.
* TookALevelInBadass: Although she kicked ass and knocked off a few mooks in the first time, Lara acts more like a female James Bond with a license to kill, leaving behind a high body count and outright [[ChekhovsGun warning]] Sheridan that she is perfectly capable and willing to kill him if necessary.
* UnconventionalFoodUsage: Lara uses bubblegum (borrowed from a little girl) to stabilize a hologram-projecting camera to locate the Pandora Box's location.
* UpperClassEquestrian: Lara rides a horse around her considerable family estate in one scene.
* WrestlerOfBeasts: After escaping an underwater temple, Lara punches a shark and hitches a ride with it to the surface.
