      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;A friend was curious why I wanted to give this
show a chance. The answer is simple, and I will not deny that I
sort of enjoyed the free-wheeling, breezy summer
action-adventure-comedy with a generous dose of special effects
thrown in, which the Mummy and The Mummy Returns offered, together
with the great chemistry between Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz and
John Hannah. But this installment of Tomb of the Dragon Emperor,
came hot on the heels of the Hollywood bandwagon of raiding their
own franchises in order to rake in millions around the world, and
therefore fell short on many counts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>The Mummy:Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor replied by Xephone_xenon @ Fri, 01 Aug 2008 01:05:46 +0800</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;SPOILER ALERT!!! Here is my review of the movie. I know quite
heavy critic but please dont flame hor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"Mummy: Tomb of the dragon emperor" is a movie whereby the content
highly contradicts with its title. As a matter of fact, there are
no mummies in it at all; unless you consider ancient Chinese
soldiers as one.&lt;br /&gt;
And apart from the distinct contradiction, the plot is filled with
flaws, lots of unnecessary sequence, both the English and Chinese
spoke pathetic mandarin, female lead was replaced by a totally
unsexy woman, the supposedly jokes are totally unprovoking of my
laughing bone and fuck ... too much for me to possibly rant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The casting of Asian Hollywood stars did not save the show from
becoming a classic horror, the Jet Li martial arts package should
be long dead by now, Michelle Yeoh is just a milf that should lay
home all day and get laid by her multi billionaire Fianc&#233;e, as for
Isabella Leong I guess she's pretty cute, but again that did not
save the show, perhaps Asami Tani will depending on her dress
code.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I were to ignore the preposterous plot on mummies being
substituted by the ancient chinese, perhaps things started just
fine with the O'Connell's playing the game of happy family, and
Alex, his son, abandoning education and digging up the &amp;lt;insert
title here&amp;gt;. All the chasing and shooting in shanghai was quite
a rollercoaster ride too.&lt;br /&gt;
But at the moment when the yetis came out from nowhere and allied
with the O'Connell in defeating the Chinese soldiers, I knew
something was not right. Not too long later, things completely
blew(&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;In a bad way&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;) when Jet Li drowned himself
into the shrine of immortality and suddenly turned into a three
headed dragon toasting bricks like nobody's business.&lt;br /&gt;
I can't believe that the screenwriters had decided to add mythical
creatures into the franchise. I mean how RIGHT is it to see
abdominal snowmans, yeties, chinese dragon and some two horned
mammal I can't name casted in a mummy show? Entirely not, the first
two movies worked out well without those, and I am sure it will
without screenwriters like Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, fuck
them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Apart from the above, the clashing war between the undead peasant
and undead soilders was a total mess.&lt;br /&gt;
Charge and strike, starting with hoes and swords, later with guns
and more swords, then planes and more fucking swords. In the end
planes was eventually taken down by the two horned mammal which Jet
Li transformed into.&lt;br /&gt;
I am strongly suspecting that the scriptwriters were doing his job
half drunk and high on drugs, it's like a anything goes festival.
Seriously, if a movie is unable to handle it's acme with care, it's
better off dead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And just to make things flow in a ludicrous manner, the ending was
just as bad, if not, worse.&lt;br /&gt;
On one corner of the ring we have multi-classing Jet Li, a master
in all forms of Chinese martial arts, a magician that's able to
manipulate wind,water,fire,wood and metal at his own will, at the
same time having the completely WTF ability to transform into just
"anything"(&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;as quoted from the show&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;) and that
includes the option of changing into a 30foot tall three headed
dragon that's flies and breaths fire.&lt;br /&gt;
On the another corner of the ring, we have the manly gentlemens
from the O'Connell family that possess nothing but guns which
proved to be useless against Jet Li, and a cursed hand-held dagger
barely 40cm long that's capable of killing the emperor when stabbed
in his heart.&lt;br /&gt;
And in less than 10mins of screen time, the O'Connell won! With
childish tempting followed by a backstab into the heart.&lt;br /&gt;
This strongly reminds me of the final scene in X-Man 3, with
wolverine(having the mere ability to ejaculate claws from kuncles
and spontaneous recovery) killing dark phoenix(having the ability
to realise whatever she imagines) by stabbing her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well to sum my lengthy rant up.&lt;br /&gt;
"Mummy: Tomb of the dragon emperor" is a sequel that's desperately
dug up from the depths of hell when it has ended for good and
peace.&lt;br /&gt;
If by any chance the show receives a passing grade from the
consensus, Brendan Fraser deserves all the credits.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Grade 1.5/5.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Html code all wrong i know, intended to post in blog tomorrow and
my blog coding different from sgforums.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;depends on your personal taste...go read the news review by
roger ebert...his reviews are usually quite good.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is a film about MUMMY, it is not meant to be serious...and he
say it is those films...that is so bad until they are enjoyable to
watch.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
