    [Highly rated reviewer]

    The Scorpion King 2: Rise Of A Warrior is a superb dvd, but does not star The Rock as The Scorpion King in this movie.

    In this film, you travel back to the beginning, and watch as a legend is born, in this prequel to The Scorpion King.

    Having watched his father die at the hands of the King, young Mathayus (played by Michael Copon who starred in Power Rangers: Time Force), embarks on a life long quest for vengeance, that will transform him into a warrior, whose very name has the power, to strike fear into the heart of the ancient world.

    Russel Mulcahy directions this sequel. He directed Highlander and Resident Evil: Extinction.

    Also in this film are: Randy Couture playing Sargon of Akkad and Karen David as Layla the heroine, who is Mathayus' childhood friend and love.

    Well worth watching....

    Perhaps I should give it another viewing but I mentally switched off when I realised none of my fav actors from The Mummy were in it. Obviously, they tried to keep up the same theme with sand, the sexy girlfight, stiff english explorer and the supernatural. But I couldn't get around the really wooden acting. After the fight with the big scorpion reminding me of Jason fighting the argonauts, I just ejected it from my dvd player. I suggest you don't even put it in!

  • Worst film ever, in all categories...

    Rated - 0.5 stars  
    By Dern (17 reviews) from Bournemouth , 01 May 2011
    Worst film ever...every aspect of this movie is atrocious, acting, sets, locations. Even a wooden chair could do better. I feel sorry for Randy Couture, I respect him so much as an MMA fighter, this movie lets him down so badly...DO NOT RENT...

  • Let the kids call you when a "good bit" comes on!

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    Generally disappointing but with a few good moments, probably more to be enjoyed by younger viewers who would be less likely to notice the easily predictable dialogue and extremely poor special effects for the monsters, (actually even kids would probably notice this!)

    Watching the actor fall about while trying to portray a scary minataur in the 'extras' section was hillarious though! Despite the disappointing story line and effects, the characters/actors make a good effort in this movie, and again, in the extras, the personality of the main star Michael Copon shines through, and the fight scene choreography is quite good. At least the actors look like they had fun making this movie!

    The general look of the film is pleasing, the young actors, ones to look out for in the future, in hopefully better films.
