Tomb of the dragon emperor: Best kept under wraps

Rajeev Kheror

The first two "Mummy" movies cleaned up worldwide, but the many fans of those films may be disappointed by this one.

The third film in the Mummy franchise is not a patch on the first two. The plot is convoluted and the twists and turn predictable.

In fact, except for some yetis, a three-headed dragon and several other demonic creatures thrown in to create cheap scares, there’s nothing new.
