Rating: 3.0
All that glitters is not gold....
but the glitter in this movie is certainly impressive. That's about all that can be said for this ostentation. One must credit the film-makers with one thing, however: there is no shortage of glitz. Any special effect that might have a chance of eliciting an 'ooh' or 'aah' was not left out: this film has the whole array of dazzling cgi's.Rather than concentrate on such trivialities as plot or character development, the film-makers head straight for what the audience surely wants in a summer blockbuster -- huge, spectacular, *really* unbelievable special effects.And if the idea of two Egyptian alter-egos battling it out with Japanese farming tools isn't impressive, their costumes certainly are!
