The Mummy : Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

At last! Napanood ko na rin ang The Mummy : Tomb of the Dragon Emperor na third installment from The Mummy Returns sa Cinema 5 ng SM Megamall kagabi (August 31, 2008) ng alas 7pm up to 9pm. Actually, it's a movie date with my ex at syempre masaya naman ako kasi kahit papaano ay nagkaroon siya ng time sa akin kahit busy siya sa work niya.

Hayz! Nalaman ko rin na may new boyfriend na ang ex ko pero masaya naman ako kasi kahit papaano ay friends naman kami. Supposed to be ay For the First Time ang gusto kong panuorin pero since ayaw niya noon kasi kahit 4 cinemas ang open for For the First Time ay standing ovation pa rin ngayon kaya ang The Mummy : Tomb of the Dragon Emperor na lang ang pinanuod namin.

The blockbuster global Mummy franchise takes a spellbinding turn as the action shifts to Asia for the next chapter in the adventure series, 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.

Doomed by a double-crossing sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) to spend eternity in suspended animation, China's ruthless Dragon Emperor and his 10,000 warriors have laid forgotten for eons, entombed in clay as a vast, silent terra cotta army. But when dashing adventurer Alex O'Connell is tricked into awakening the ruler from eternal slumber, the reckless young archaeologist must seek the help of the only people who know more than he does about taking down the undead: his parents. As the monarch roars back to life, our heroes find his quest for world domination has only intensified over the millennia.


Striding the Far East with unimaginable supernatural powers, the Emperor Mummy will rouse his legion as an unstoppable, otherworldly force...unless the O'Connells can stop him first. Now, in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, the trademark thrills and visually spectacular action of the Mummy series will be redefined for a new generation. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor is helmed by director Rob Cohen (The Fast and the Furious, xXx) and written by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar (Spider-Man 2, television's Smallville). Reprising their roles as producers in the series are Bob Ducsay, Sean Daniel, Stephen Sommers and James Jacks.

COMMENTS :

I can say now na magaling talaga si Brendan Fraser. Medyo nabatiwa lang ako sa pumalit sa original na Evelyn kasi mas maganda at magaling pa rin ang gumanap na Evelyn sa 1st and 2nd installment ng The Mummy. Sabi ng ex ko, "The last two mummies were scarier than this one. This one is more comic compared to the others".

Una sa lahat, the point of the mummy movies is not to scare the audience, it's about searching for buried treasure, and along the way, awakening the undead, and putting them back to sleep... Now for my comment... I just like what Alex said to Lin... Who is Lin by the way? Sorry ha, medyo naguluhan kasi ako sa scenario.

Isa pa, medyo hindi na ako natutuwa sa mga comedy scenes sa movie na ito. Unlike sa 1 and 2 ng The Mummy, I think sobrang OA na ng mga scenes nito. Adventure movie ito sa 1 and 2 turned fantasy to stupid vfx. I don't know, hindi ko lang talaga nagustuhan. Waaaah! Bitin kasi ako.

I watched it alone like 2 weeks ago and I was so disappointed. It was boring and forgettable. I watched it alone and for reasons I felt empty. If I could have watched it with somebody, I am sure it would have had the same effect. I was really very disappointed.....

di ko ito mxado nagustuhan, simple lng ang istorya at namiss ko c rachel weisz.ok naman yung pumalit na si maria bello pero iba tlga c rachel eh.pati yung effects di rin gaanong maganda para skin, prang di mxadong pinag-isipan.mediocre is the perfect term.pero cguro to each his own. :)

Virtual Memory sure is becoming cheaper these days. I wonder when we will eventually hit the ratio of $0.01 to 1 Gigabyte.

I eagerly await the day when I will finally be able to afford a 20 terabyte hard disk, lol. But for now I guess I will be satisfied with having a 32 gig Micro SD in my R4i.
