The Scorpion King (2002)

Scorpion King, The (2002, USA) C-92m. SCOPE **½ D: Chuck Russell. Starring The Rock (=Dwayne Johnson), Steven Brand, Michael Clarke Duncan, Kelly Hu, Bernard Hill. Lively, quite entertaining B-movie is a follow-up to the MUMMY movies. Pro wrestler The Rock plays the hunky title character who must kill evil ruler Brand in ancient Egypt. Blah script is mostly offset by some nice production design, non-stop action. Quite successful at the box office.
