Uninteresting sequel

Rating: 5/10 (19 May 2001)

Not so good sequel, that deserves attention only for it's excellent special effects and action. Otherwise uninteresting with a lame script. Over-hyped due to the Rock (Dwayne Johnson) appearing within, and only for about 2 minutes at the start. At the end, he is poorly animated as a big scorpion. Includes joinings with the original that would only be interesting for those who have watched the original. Some parts are unexplained like Rachel Weisz's flashbacks which did not appear in the first. Uses too many gimmicks for quick one-liners. Only watchable due to the action, but those baddies just aren't bad enough.
