The Mummy:Tomb of the Dragon Emperor or The Mummy 3.

"The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor." Brendan Fraser returns as explorer Rick O'Connell to combat the resurrected Han Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. Rick is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah). And this time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse who threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.

Thats the story, what was the film like.......?
It was bluming fantastic, I've read some awful reviews about it so my expectations were not to expect much, but if you want a good time and a rip of an adventure I recommend M3.
My only disappointment was that Rachel Weisz did not return as Evelyn but .....after a couple of minutes Maria Bello won me over and I was right into the third instalment.

So I would just like to say to all those people who think their noses are too far up their arses and afraid to say they enjoyed it, it's your loss and theres no hope for you fuddy duddys.

Also theres some nice eye candy to top it off. Very Happy

Have to agree with what Carl said. As much as I enjoyed the first 2, to me this was better. It didn't drag as much as the first 2 (even though it was shorter) and those that slated this want shooting. A lot of people were saying how far fetched it was. Hello and the first 2 weren't. My only downfalls with this was that Alex looked about the same age as his father Rick and the poor use of John Hannah and David Calder, two of Britains finest actors.

Regardless, this is a one I'd recommend with 4 1/2 out of 5.
