I am not sure why the short cameo or whatever you want to call it, The Rock (aka Dwayne Johnson) had in The Mummy 2 made him eligible to have his spin-off. And not only that: they made it so succesful, it had more sequels than the "original" Mummy movies (with Brendan Fraser). Well the first one was quite good - so there is that.
The movie is well made and fortunately the Rock is physically there and not a CGI thing or whatever that was that made it to the end of the Mummy 2.
But this is an origin story ... a story about the good Scorpion King ... you know, before he went mad and bad. I don't even want to know what the other 4 movies are about. But I might watch them one day ... I actually have watched at least one more ... can't recall it, but that's why I do the reviews too. To remember myself in case I forget ... which happens - and is not surprising when you consider the amount of movies I've watched.
