The Mummy :- Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
Posted by Nick Tay
Entertaining, but not quite there. Watched it and though I did manage to finish it on DVD without turning it off out of pure boredom, I was however alittle dissapointed at a few things. Firstly the new Evy changes the dynamics of the first two movies. The relationship between Rick and her lacked the same chemistry we loved in the first 2 movies. Secondly I didn’t like the guy who played the son Alex. If they grew up in England, he would have a british accent, just like he did when he was a kid in the Mummy returns. He just didn’t do a good enough job playing the son of Rick. And finally I was upset by how the Dragon Emperor died way too easily. The fight sequence should have involved the fallen first emperor! And there should have been more love scenes between him and Michelle Yeoh, after all she was morning him for 2000 years!!
The plus sides? Michelle Yeow rocked in the show! The effects were not bad, they didn’t reuse the Face in the Sand and Face in the Water thing. They had Yetis which was cool and of course I loved Jonathan, though I think the movie should have ended with him moving to Shangrilla and staying there. He always seems to have the worse of the happy endings!
All in all, its a DVD movie to chase a way the boredom. I give it a 6.4 / 10.0
