THE
SCORPION
KING
With
The
Rock,
Kelly
Hu,
Bernard
Hill,
Peter
facinelli,
Michael
Clark
Duncan
Directed
by
Chuck
Russell
Wrestling
superstar
The
Rock
(Dwayne
to
his
mom)
first
appeared
in
The
Mummy
Returns
as
a
pawn
in
the
title
character's
plot
to
rule
and
destroy.
Here
we
find
him
in
a
prequil
to
his
resurrection
where
he
was
fighting
on
the
good
side.
A
corrupt
and
bloodthirsty
ruler
has
the
advantage
over
his
enemies
by
using
a
captive
(and
sexy)
clairvoyant
who
predicts
his
victory.
The
Rock
and
his
brothers
get
hired
to
off
the
punk,
but
they
get
nailed
instead,
our
hero's
brother
killed
in
the
process.
The
lead
babe
prevents
them
from
killing
our
body
slamming
muscleman.
He
escapes
and
rescues/steals
the
damsel,
and
with
a
comedy
relief
sidekick
go
on
the
trail
to
destroy
the
ponce
who's
out
to
rule
the
land
with
violence.
Plenty
of
action
results
but
lacks
the
kind
of
memorable
impact
necessary
to
take
it
beyond
its
viewing
time.
They
could've
left
the
kid
out
of
the
equation,
but
Rock
fans
may
not
be
disappointed,
though.
