Synopsis:Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah) to combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China to the neon-lit streets of post-war Shanghai and high into the frigid Himalayas. This time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse that threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.
Doomed by a sorcerer (Michelle Yeoh) to spend eternity in suspended animation, China ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in the clay as a vast, silent Terra Cotta army. But when dashing adventurer, Alex O'Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead. His parents, as the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world domination has only intensified over the millenia.

This movie is another blockbuster. I love this film. New direction they turn from the Egyptian mummy to the Chinese Terra Cotta Army, as a mummy too. Kind of oriental based story. I just watched it on Saturday, 2nd of August. Luckily I watched it at Seremban, there wasn't so much people watching it as in KL. I heard from my brother, he watched it the same day as me but in Berjaya Times Square. He got like the front row or so. Pity him.
Just feel lately a lot of stuff is kinda Chinese stuff... The 'Red Cliff' and this mummy film are taking place in China. Olympic as well taking place in China on 08.08.08, kinda 'ONG' number for the Chinese. I wonder how will it be for this time. The is so many new idea for this event this year organized by them. Hope everyone will enjoy it when the day comes.
Overall rating: 8/10
Plot: 8/10
Acting: 9/10
