great guy movie just to go and enjoy. It's a fantasy like Harry Potter but with Brandon Fraiser and his grown up son. His son's character reminded us of Brandon Fraiser's character in the first Mummy movie.

With a storyline convoluted by cheap theatrical devices, impossible scenarios, and poor acting, this film's only saving qualities are the gratuitous action scenes. They even have the cliché evil female accomplice with a pseudo nazi uniform and a scar on her cheek. Jet Li and Isabella Leong save the other boring or inept characterizations and Li doesn't have enough screen time to provide enough punch ("pun" intended) to keep the audience engaged. Maria Bello as Evelyn O'Connell is hard to adjust to after Rachel Weisz's previous portrayals have fixed the character in so many ways. Brendan Frazer plays - surprise! - Brendan Frazer. He's supposed to be playing a father in his early fifties, based upon the age of his son Alex - played well by Luke Ford, but he still acts the part as a twenty something smart mouthed rebel who neither shows fatherly nor spousal emotion in this retread of every character Brendon has done. See it for the action scenes - but beware of the drag-on!

It's watchable, but there are places where no one seems to be having fun making the movie. It's more "Let's get it done." It leans heavily on the Indiana Jones movies, but what the hey, if you're going to emulate, do it from the best. The sets were amazing and the CGI fantastic. Brendan Fraiser is always watchable, but I wanted Rachel back for Evvie.

I am very interested in **2**/has some summary details of both stories and possibly more if people are interested. Either way, I don't believe the director was too happy about the whole situation, but its tough to stop pretty solid billion dollar franchise. I am hoping for the best.

this was or is a great movie, I love the action
