  • Entertainment:

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor delivers thrilling action and spectacular visuals but falls short of the charm and wit found in its predecessors. Brendan Fraser and the cast bring their characters to life with enthusiasm, although the film’s storyline and coherence sometimes waver under the weight of its ambitious scope. While the move to a new setting in China with the Terracotta Army introduces fresh elements, the film’s execution doesn’t always hit the mark, resulting in a mixed bag of spectacular moments and missed opportunities.
