The third film in the The Mummy series freshens the franchise up by setting the action in China. There, the discovery of an ancient emperor's elaborate tomb proves a feather in the cap of Alex O'Connell (Luke Ford), a young archaeologist and son of Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) and his wife Evelyn (Maria Bello, taking over the role from Rachel Weisz). Unfortunately, a curse that turned the emperor (Jet Li) and his army into terra cotta warriors buried for centuries is lifted, and the old guy prepares for world domination by seeking immortality at Shangri La. The O'Connells barely stay a step ahead of him (climbing through the Himalaya mountains with apparent ease), but the action inevitably leads to a showdown between two armies of mummies in a Chinese desert. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor has a lot to offer: a supporting cast that includes the elegant Michelle Yeoh, Russell Wong, and Liam Cunningham, the unexpected appearance of several Yeti, and a climactic battle sequence that is nightmarishly weird but compelling. On the downside, the charm so desperately sought in romantic relationships, as well as comic turns by John Hannah (as Evelyn's rascal brother), is not only absent but often annoying. Rarely have witty asides in the thick of battle been more unwelcome in a movie. Rob Cohen's direction is largely crisp if sometimes curious (a fight between Fraser and Jet Li keeps varying in speed for some reason), but his vision of Shangri La, in the Hollywood tradition, is certainly attractive. --Tom Keoghbr>

In 1999, director Stephen Sommers breathed new life into the classic Mummy character and did it again a couple of years later with "The Mummy Returns". Under Sommers, the first two films were fun, exciting, action packed FX-driven extravaganzas along the lines of Indiana Jones. In short, i liked them a lot. Now, Director Rob Cohen takes over the franchise, and while its not quite as brilliant as the first two, it's still fun and has its moments.

The 3rd instalment of the mummy series is a good adition but i think they should stop where they are before they ruin it. I Love this movie. I Recommend This Movie For Everyone. if you liked this movie then check out the other two Mummy movies.

I was thrown at first by Rachel Weisz's replacement. I think it would have been better with her. The son looked too close to Brendan Fraser's age to me... but otherwise I really enjoyed it. Brendan Fraser really can do no wrong and I will watch whatever he is in. I liked the action, the romance and the scenery was beautiful. The story was intriguing.... I'd watch another 'Mummy' installment... hey, maybe they can find some here in the Nations Capital ;0) ....

These are the kind of action movies I hardly EVER watch. The Indiana Jones type, as I like to call them. Exciting movies perhaps, but they feel so... bombastic and fake.
This movie is no exception, but something about it is more appealing to me compared to all those Indiana Jones and James Bond films. The visual effects are pretty stunning, I know that much. The snowmen/ape creatures were unique, the transformations involving the main mummy were VERY well done and looked stunning to be completely ... Read More

I am a vintage horror fan and I was excited to hear they were going to revamp the Mummy series back in the 90's and while the first film in the new series was entertaining it was a far cry from the original 1931 classic with Boris Karloff. 'The Mummy Returns' was pretty bad, almost causing me to not even give this third outing a look. Since it came on cable I decided to give it a shot.
The film starts out promising with a cool set up in China, but soon after the opening credits role it goes downhill. ... Read More
