Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film is a sequel to a prequel to a sequel of a remake. That is, it is a sequel to The Scorpion King (2002), which is a prequel to The Mummy Returns (2001), which is a sequel to The Mummy (1999) which can be considered as a loose remake of The Mummy (1932).
- GoofsTalus' army uses counterpoise trebuchets. The big sling shot weapons with the counter weight. This particular type was not invented until the middle ages around the 11th century. If we follow the time line of the other movies that places them about 4000 years before they were invented.

The Scorpion King 3 Battle for Redemption: Oddly passable
Considering I didn't rate the big Hollywood blockbuster The Scorpion King (2002) I sure as hell didn't expect I'd think much of the straight to DVD sequels.
The second surprised me and was actually really quite fun, a great take your brain out fantasy outing.
This one, was closer in quality to the first but still better than you'd expect all things considered.
Starring Ron Perlman, Billy Zane, Temuera Morrison, Kimbo Slice and Dave Bautista it's straight to DVD status is blatant but it's not entirely awful.
Set after the 2002 outing it tells the story of our Scorpion King protagonist fallen on hard times and becoming a mercenary. Sadly The Rock by this point had become too big a star to return so Victor Webster stepped in. Now I do hate characters being recast but under the circumstances I think he did a decent enough job both in his performance and appearance.
With an odd level of comedy Battle for Redemption delivers the goods to a degree but not the ones you'd be seeking from a movie like this. The fight sequences are poor, the story is cliched to hell and the likes of Perlman are barely on camera at all.
Not bad, not good, just passable stuff.
The Good:
Couple of great characters
Billy Zane
Some surprisingly good comedy
The Bad:
Selina Lo
Action scenes are underwhelming
I do hate recasting
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
This film is a sequel to a prequel to a prequel of a sequel of a remake (No seriously!)
Last time I saw Olaf he was called Donald Gibb
