    Actually not too bad...

    I was somewhat unsure of how to receive this movie, since I liked part 1, but wasn't particularly fond of part 2. But still, with nothing better to do, I decided to give part 3 a go.

    Lets start off with the bad things about the movie. The dialogue was somewhat stale and halting. They tried to put in too much humor with Mathayus and Olaf, but it just didn't work. It didn't really seem appropriate for them to crack jokes like that. And also a lot of the dialogue by Talus was really way, way off.

    The movie took place where exactly? Cambodia? Laos? Burma? Regardless of wherever the movie was supposed to take place, they threw in ninjas. Are you kidding me? Ninjas? Now, I like ninjas, they are cool and very 80's, but they are Japanese and thus were so unfitly put into this movie. It just made it look more comical than the intended action hype they were aiming for.

    As for the good things. Well the movie had really nice location, lots of awesome and beautiful scenery, buildings and surroundings in this movie. And the cinematography itself was quite nice as well. The costumes and outfits were nicely made as well, great details and lots of interesting stuff going on.

    "The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption" held some good enough names on the cast list. Victor Webster, playing Mathays, was doing a good job, though he had some big shoes to fill out from the first movie (not really counting part 2 for much). However, his character doesn't really have that whole epic-touch to it that was there in part one, he might as well have been some ordinary highwayman or mercenary, and that was a shame, because it took a great deal away from the movie. Now, Billy Zane as Talus, well I am not really keen on Zane, he brings with him that comical edge, which really seeps into the character and makes it come off a bit too much. The one that really stood out in the movie was Selina Lo, playing Tsukai. She was great at fighting, and they had done some really cool special effects to make her character come back from beyond the grave with a sense that there was something supernatural about her.

    There is a lot of action and fighting in this movie, and it works out well enough. The fight scenes are well choreographed and are set at a high pace full of adrenaline. I liked what I saw.

    One scene had me laughing so loud. It was where the ninjas, yeah ninjas, all jumped onto an elephant and rode away. Are you kidding me? They scale trees like others walk on the ground in this movie, with cat-like grace and dexterity, but they opt to make a daring get-away riding on an elephant? Now, elephants aren't exactly the fastest of animals. What was up with that?

    Aside from suffering from bad dialogue and misplaced use of comedy, then "The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption" is a decent enough action movie that will entertain most people. Just don't compare it to what you have seen in the previous movies, because it really strays quite far from the legacy of past history.

    Don't be tempted by # 3.....

    This is typical Hollywood me too products. The first Scorpion King is okay. The second Scorpion King was worse than the first one but still enjoyable. And if that is any indication, then you would expect that the 3rd series would be watchable. Unfortunately, that is not the case.

    The story-line is quite confusing. If the first and the second part was in some Middle East related country, this one is not very clear. It start with some sort of Middle East scenery, then you have building which definitely look like the one you find in Thailand and the inhabitant have all the Eastern look-like feature. Of course you have to have the Thai-box action and to make more confusing...... a ninja.... The only thing you can enjoy on this movie is if you like muscular men parading their half naked body in the tattered clothing and strangely enough this big men are very easy to knock out. A little slap from a woman will render them unconscious...

    Anyway, don't waste you money or time on this one. I did and I regret that nobody was giving me a warning.....

    A movie for fans of the series only. I couldn't get into it. Makes original look like Oscar winner. I say D+

    "Your mission is to defeat my brother." Mathayus's (Webster) kingdom has fallen and his wife has died. He is now an assassin that is hired by King Horus (Perlman) to stop the rise of his brother and the army of ghost warriors. I have to start off by saying that I didn't really like the original. To me it was very cheesy and over the top and more of a comedy then an action movie. After watching 2 & 3 the first one looks like an Oscar winner. This review will be short because it was a struggle to make it through and I did end up falling asleep a few times and I think I missed some important stuff, but I didn't care enough to rewind it. If you like the others you will like this one. If you didn't then I would avoid it. Overall, a movie for fans of the series only. I give it a D+.

    Waste of time

    Please do not go into this movie thinking it is going to be anything like Scorpion King or Scorpion King 2. The first one was great, the second one was good, but this one is a total waste of time. It is nothing like the first two since this "king" is now a hired assassin and no longer a king. The dialog is terrible, the fight scenes unrealistic, the acting seemed like they were reading off cue cards, there was no emotion at all. The story may have had something to do with it since there was very little plot to follow. Just random fight scenes, and the 6'5" 300 lb king got beat up by a 5' tall 90 lb woman in one of them. I don't know what happened to Billy Zane, but he lost whatever acting skills he had (which were minimal to begin with). He was flat out horrible. Truly, honestly, and sincerely-do not waste your time on this just because you may think it is a continuation of the Scorpion series. It is not and it stinks

    5/10

    With each sequel to Scorpion King the movie gets worse and worse. I'm not sure if it's because of the shrinking budget, but there's definitely something wrong with this. The script was just plain and cliché, like you can see in any exotic movie or video game of this type (like Prince of Persia) or all the previous Scorpion Kings. Other than this the film offers a lot of muscle and skin without any noticeable acting and handpicked women from Asia and some men from W.W.E. Championship to spice it up a little bit. Of course there are also some jokes which could make a 5th-grade-kid smile. Directing becomes rather trivial behind all these so I'm skipping it. So if you're looking for something to kill your time go ahead, but if you're in it for the art or cinematography this is not for you, keep away.

    • Goofs
      Talus' army uses counterpoise trebuchets. The big sling shot weapons with the counter weight. This particular type was not invented until the middle ages around the 11th century. If we follow the time line of the other movies that places them about 4000 years before they were invented.
