Three yetis, a yak1 and a couple of yuks. That's all you get in "The Mummy: The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor," an extravagant2 and frenetic third entry in the franchise3 about adventurer Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) and his continuing fights with the embalmed5 yet undead.
It's like an Indiana Jones movie without rhythm, wit or personality, just a desperate headlong pace.
The series takes O'Connell and his wife Evelyn (Maria Bello, substituting for Rachel Weisz) from England, to China, in 1947.
They become
embroiled6 in a despicable warlord's efforts to bring the Dragon Emperor (Jet Li) back to life so he can reawaken his army and
unify8 China.
A beautiful sorceress (Michelle Yeoh) had cursed the emperor for reneging on a promise, freezing him and his men into terra-cotta figures. Now, the O'Connells must save China and possibly the world.
Fraser is an actor with amazing audience
rapport9, comic
timing10 and range. With his likable features and ready smile, Fraser is already an oversized cartoon of
manliness11; he shouldn't be forced to magnify that impression with a cartoonish character.
The action scenes are hit-or-miss; you wonder whether the filmmakers
blurred12 the images because they didn't have time to get the effects right. The one novel stroke is the appearance of three scary-looking, good-hearted
abominable13 snowmen.
