This is a bad movie, there is no way around it. But the movie knows its bad, I mean it has Randy Couture as an ACTOR! I like this movie, only b/c its so horrible and knows it. The only positive thing this movie has going for it is Karen David as the hotttt lead woman, Layla. I mean she is really hot and is wearing nearly nothing in the whole movie. The film is ripe with historical inaccuracies and massive plot holes, but if you enjoy entertaining horrible films this is the one for you! I enjoy watching it (much to the confusion of others who have seen it with me) I cannot wait until the Scorpion King 3 comes out........and yes, they are making a 3rd one! :D
Nice movie, but the title is alittle misleading, not like the original with the Rock

After enjoying the cheesy Mummy 1 and 2 and Scorpion King I was looking forward to this next offer. Poor very stiff acting, lackluster fights, and plodding story line made me wish I had saved my money. This movie totaly lacked the energy, overacting and interesting characters from the first three films. The forced buddie (friendship) was unbelieveable. Only the chinese guy who was shown as a whimp and then (new script?) suddenly turned into a fighting machine; he was interesting and he was a very minor role. I kept waiting for the brother, he never showed up. And using a stick man as the Scorpion King when you used the Rock later is just a leap. Bad movie, hate to see it happen to a nice product.
I was so excited to see this movie because of the Mummy series. It needs more to it. It leaves you hanging as it does not completely end where the Scorpion King started. You still do not know why or how he became evil and buried in a tomb guarded so it was never opened again. The actor portraying the "evil" king should have not been an American person considering the location and "myth" of the movie. There's a few twists and turns that keep you guessing and the majority of acting was good. I will watch this again to see what I missed, if anything. I am glad that I bought it as it is a good action flick.
Movie came, and went. And was far too long for it's own good (109 minutes). Film sludges along and feels like it's half-baked and not quite finished. I can't say I can recomend it, and I certainly can't say I will ever watch my DVD again. Oh, and the fight scenes, yeah...not happening. Poorly shot, too quick, and heavy use of wires. Even Randy Couture can't save the fights because he HARDLY throws a punch in this movie, and he surely, has one tone of voice. Avoid this puppy.
