The Scorpion King
Theres nothing original in The Scorpion King, but this derivative action
franchise gets off to a rousing start by cleverly stealing from a lot of better
movies. Capitalizing on his brief cameo in The Mummy Returns, Dwayne
Johnson (a.k.a. World Wrestling Federation star the Rock) stars as
Mathayus, an Akkadian assassin in the age preceding Egyptian pharaohs,
who vows to avenge his brothers murder by an undefeated warlord
(Steven Brand) prophesied to become the desert-ruling Scorpion King.
Their battle for supremacy comprises most of the films brisk 95-minute
running time, punctuated by comic relief from Mathayuss obligatory
sidekick (Grant Heslov), romance with a beautiful sorceress (Kelly Hu),
and alliance with a massive Nubian (Michael Clarke Duncan) on the eve of
their climactic showdown. Theres no rhyme or reason to the films depiction
of ancient civilization (the costuming is particularly ludicrous), but the Rock
demonstrates adequate action-star potential, and director Chuck Russell
(The Mask) wraps it all in a slick, professional package. --Jeff Shannon
