The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor Reviews
…may have been the least successful of the three films, but it’s also the best of the lot…
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 22, 2022
The only thing that really saves the film from being a complete debacle is Brendan Fraser's uncanny ability to sell even the dumbest scene.
| Original Score: 1.5/4.0 | Sep 17, 2020
The Mummy saga comes to a close with this mostly tedious and somewhat interminable entry...
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 29, 2020
This third installment of The Mummy franchise is full of action sequences that try to thrill, but ultimately just crash together into a rather predictable ball of mediocrity.
| Original Score: D | Oct 29, 2019
One of the most inane pieces of soulless product, churned out to make a quick buck, I have seen in quite some time.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 6, 2019
Thankfully The Mummy doesn't forget its history and remains a tomb-raiding yarn without attempts to break genre conventions. For better or worse we get exactly what it says in the title: a mummy, a tomb and a dragon emperor.

Tomb of the Dragon Emperor isn't nearly up to the mark set by the previous modern mummy movies
| Original Score: C | Aug 17, 2017
Never trust a movie in which a character exclaims "here we go again", just as Brendan Fraser does 30 minutes into the third instalment of The Mummy franchise.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 21, 2014
Pray that this is a franchise that's dead for good this time.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 14, 2012

| Original Score: C+ | May 6, 2011
A movie series called The Mummy is naturally going to have a limited focus. Universal might have been better off focusing on the various adventures of Rick and Evelyn to give them a wider range of material. But they haven't, so mummies it is.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Apr 8, 2011
The makers of the wildly lucrative Mummy franchise are flogging a dead corpse ... the adventure that's been disinterred is more than a little whiffy.

It's a deafening, blinding department store Blu-ray demo reel that's spun wildly out of control...Tomb takes the franchise to a stunning new low."
| Original Score: D- | Jun 2, 2010
I too wish this Mummy stayed dead and buried.

obviously the low-grade stuff: users will get their fix but recognize it's been cut too thin, no matter how many bells and whistles were crammed into the mainframe.
| Original Score: 0/4 | Feb 18, 2009
...this thing is cursed.
| Original Score: 3/10 | Feb 13, 2009
How anyone ever thought there was more than one movie in the Mummy concept, I don't know.
Full Review | Original Score: 63/100 | Dec 12, 2008
Another enjoyable bit of high adventure and malarkey.
