    I can't believe Michelle Yeoh would use her wonderful acrobatic and martial arts skills for this movie. It was so stupid I didn't even get to the end.

    Liked the circus act the siblings did together =D Very Magnificient.

    Yeoh gets to play Indy via lara croft. This made tomb raider films look good. The effects are bad and the cliché comedic dialog we're-in-peril-laugh is painful.
  • January 7, 2009
    Noth that good and not that bad too. A chinese or whatever take on Indiana Jones perhaps. Weird fantasy story and good action.
  • December 13, 2008
