    A struggling band of tribes hire a desert warrior of a thought extinct tribe to help rid them of a tyrant that is ruling their land with an iron fist. Seeking to kill a mystic priestess that is the source of the tyrant?s advantage and power, the warrior is betrayed by the son of the man that hired him, the warrior is taken prisoner and his brother is murdered. Seeking to avenge is brother?s death, the warrior escapes his death and flees to reform the rebel tribes to lead them to victory. Now with the priestess on his side, The Scorpion King rises from the ashes to lead his people to freedom.
    The Scorpion King is a fantastic entry spin off of The Mummy franchise. Sadly the sequel that Universal studios planned is straight to DVD and does not have The Rock in the starring role, usually a big mistake by any studio that chooses to venture down that path. The Rock does an admirable job in the lead. Nothing Spectacular, but gives the audience a taste that he can carry a film and show he is indeed the next action superstar of the film industry. The Scorpion King is a popcorn flick in the movies rawest form and does the job well. The Scorpion King is a great action movie for the family and receives four scorpion stings out of five for giving the audience a sharp sting of excitement.

    well, as an action movie this one was very very bad

    but as a parody of itself and the action movies in general it was ok

    it's just i doubt it was made as a parody and the acting was soo bad - i could have done this better with 2-3 friends ...

    better watch some cheap cartoons - they will have better acting and story

    Its loaded with dumb action, but its not FUN dumb action, (think Terminator). As a result you will tire of it quickly, and wait for the noice looking ladies to pop up.
