Critics Consensus: Action adventure doesn't get much cheesier than The Scorpion King.

Reviews

Herald Sun (Australia)

Leigh Paatsch

Just as much big, dumb fun as an A-grade B-movie should be.

The effects are terrible, the comedy falls flat and the story is an utter mess.

It's hard to follow and doesn't reward the effort of following it. It's not good drama, and it's not good spectacle.

On the silly popcorn scale, it works pretty well.

Boasting sword-and-sandal action more sluggish than a Ye Olde Renaissance Faire, The Rock putting someone through a table would be a welcome anachronism. "The Scorpion King"? More like "Moron the Barbarian."
