To counter him, the sleeping slave skeletons are awakened by the sorceress and are sort of funny one misplaces his head and screws it back on. Now the emperor has awakened and unleashes his army of 10,000 slumbering warriors to feed his ambition to conquer the world, which is going to take more than 10,000 spear carriers, but he's operating on B.C. So is the emperor, although it is a mixed blessing when you are immortal but mummified inside a thick cocoon of terra cotta. In a prologue, we learn he was cursed by the sorceress Zi Juan ( Michelle Yeoh), who incurred his wrath by spurning his love, and later, we learn, bearing the daughter of General Ming ( Russell Wong). Rick O'Connell and his wife, Evelyn ( Brendan Fraser and Maria Bello), are back, having come out of retirement to race to the aid of their adult son Alex ( Luke Ford), who has inadvertently awakened the mummy of the Dragon Emperor ( Jet Li). And once again it presents the spectacle of undead warriors who are awakened from the slumber of ages, only to be defeated in battle - this time, by the skeletons of the slaves buried beneath the Great Wall after constructing it (which is a neat trick).
But "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" is the best in the series, and from the looks of it, the most expensive. I was not, however, pleased by " The Mummy Returns" (2001), although it inspired one of my funnier reviews.
