The Mummy- Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor -

Rick (now Brendan Fraser, looking visibly tired) and Evelyn O’Connell (now Maria Bello, replacing Rachel Weisz) are enjoying a quiet retirement in 1940s England. Naturally, they get dragged back to China to stop the reawakening of the ruthless Dragon Emperor (Jet Li)—a ruler cursed into terra-cotta form—from conquering the world with his army of the undead. Their son, Alex (Luke Ford, replacing a grown-up Freddie Boath), has conveniently found the Emperor’s tomb.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5)

This third installment is a prime example of a sequel that misunderstands everything that made the original work. The Mummy- Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
