The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is a pathetic attempt to revive this dead adventure series. The story finds the O’Connells in retirement after World War II when they are unexpectedly sucked into a mummy adventure after their son uncovers the tomb of Emperor Han on an excavation in China. The acting is especially bad and the recasting of Rachel Weisz with Maria Bello significantly hurts the film. None of the characters have any chemistry and the film really stretches for story. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is a vapid, unintelligible waste that only serves to degrade an already decrepit series that doesn’t have much action or adventure left in it.
