The Mummy, Chinese style! This time the setting is post-war China and the team sets out to put back down yet another mummy who so happens to be Jet Li. I'm not a big fan of Brendan Fraser, in fact i despise many of the movies that he stars in, but the Tomb of the Dragon Emperor becomes bearable somewhat as Jet Li stars in it and as we all know he kicks ass! The film is ok in many aspects, lacking perhaps in unpredictability. The CGI was awesome, and some of the fight scenes were epic! (think Lord Of The Rings but not quite as epic). Pretty ok movie, not much to dislike about it but at the same time its not brilliant enough to stand out.Pros - Awesome CGI and action scenes, plenty of cheesy humour to give the odd laugh which is nice amongst all the fighting/mummy slaying going on. Acting was good, even though i don't like Brendan Fraser his acting was good and the same can be said for Jet Li who, for me, made the movie that little bit better than the previous one.
Cons - For the most part the whole movie was rather predictable, quite like the previous two mummy films. Brendan Fraser's hair was irritating, don't ask me why it just reminds me of Peter Andre! But aside from that not much else to dislike, a safe and easy choice but i would wait until the DVD release before watching it, or take the kids to see it during the holidays.
3/5 Jandals = it was ok... wait for the DVD though☺Watch the trailer for 'The Mummy - Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor' Here
