Profile of The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior

The plot of The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior centers around an ancient mystery, a master warrior, and good versus evil. It is an action, adventure, and fantasy movie. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It takes place, at least partly, in the desert. The setting is Egypt. It happens in ancient times. It is especially suggested for a boys' night.

Summary of The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior

THE SCORPION KING 2 uncovers the origins of the 2002 summer blockbuster which starred Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Mathayus, the most fearsome desert warrior of the ancient world. Reaching deep into the past, this prequel begins with the king as a 13-year-old peasant boy (Michael Copon) who witnesses the kidnapping and death of his father at the hands of the terrifying Sargon (played by towering UFC Heavyweight Randy Couture). Thirsty for vengeance, young Mathayus trains at the Order of the Black Scorpion to sharpen his skills as a killing machine, then journeys to the underworld to retrieve the one sword that can help him defeat Sargon. When the burgeoning Scorpion King finally comes to blows with his murderous rival, the fate of the entire human race hangs in the balance.

Now I love cheesy movies, and enjoy movies of this and many other genres, sometimes only for the cheese factor. So how did I like this one? Three words! Blah Hah Hah! Man what a cheese-fest this film was, I didn't look, but I wonder if it was a...
