Rick and Evelyn O'Connell have retired, but their son Alex has discovered perhaps the greatest archaeological artifact of the 20th century. Although family ties aren't great, the O'Connells find themselves in an adventure which requires mother, father and son to reconcile in order to prevent the resurrected Emperor Han from gaining control of the world.
The essence of The Mummy franchise has not changed. Adventure still serves as the driving basis for the film. There was ample running and sword play to keep the fans of this franchise happy. The special effects were great, especially in the case of the abominable snowmen, and the three headed dragon. Definitely the film lived up to what it advertised, and I was not disappointed because there was plenty of action. Although this movie was fun to watch, I felt there was something missing, it was Rachel, my beautiful Rachel. O.k, Bello was good, but I missed Rachel. This was a good popcorn movie. According to Metacritic.com the film received generally bad reviews, and according to Rottentomatoes.com the film received 11 fresh tomatoes to 102 rotten ones thus far. This movie was fun I'll grade it a B. Stay tuned to movieporium.blogspot.com

Sounds like Tomb of the Dragon Emperor met everyone's expectations... Brendan Frasier tries too hard to act, so you can tell he's acting
This movie franchise just isn't the same without Rachel.
