If The Scorpion King hit the spot, these will too

Two things both keep coming back to: egypt and desert
The difference: Reviewed a good deal more coolly

Common ground in both: sword fight and fictional war

Both keep coming back to the same thing: ancient egypt

Common ground: magic
The difference: Sits closer to family than The Scorpion King does

Both are built on the same subject: warrior

The same mix in both: momentum, then scale

Action with a pulse of dream logic, in both cases

Adventure built on momentum, twice over

The same preoccupation in both: magic
The difference: 20 years apart, and the 1980s show

Epic fantasy, and it commits to that

One thread runs through both: egypt

Both lean on dream logic more than on action
In the mood for more kinetic?
