The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)
Director: Rob Cohen
Starring: Brendan Fraser, Jet Li, Maria Bello, John Hannah, Luke Ford
Certificate: 12
Genre: Adventure
Awards: None
The Mummy 3 sees Rick O'Connell (Fraser) and wife Evelyn (Bello-New Actor) taking on China's mummified Emperor (Li) with old face Jonathan Carnahan (Hannah) and their son Alex (Ford). They have to stop the mummy from becoming immortal and killing everyone. You know, The usual.
The Mummy 3 is definitely the worst in the trilogy . Everybody who i was watching it with either left or fell asleep. There was too much "Oh no. You need to give our child more love and stuff" and not enough interesting plot line. At one point the writers must have been so bored they decided to add random yetis into the story that were never explained. Maria Bella was not a good replacement for Rachel Weitz and they should not have changed the actor.

Did you hear about the Morgans? (2009)
Director: Marc Lawrence
Starring: Hugh Grant, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sam Elliot and Micheal Kelly
Certificate: PG
Genre: Comedy/Romance
Awards: None
In Did You Hear About The Morgans? Hugh Grant stars and Sarah Jessica Parker star as the separated couple Paul and Meryl Morgan who while trying to talk about their marriage they witness an assassination. Because the assassin (Kelly) saw them they somehow become a target and have to live in an isolated village somewhere where typically their marriage is sorted out and they all live happily ever after.
DYHATM? was quite a boring film which had some funny parts but i had expected more from a comedy. There was also some pretty bad acting. Overall not very good.

Hellboy (2004)
Director: Guillermo del Toro
Starring: Ron Perlman, Doug Jones, Selma Blair, Rupert Evans, John Hurt, Karel Roden and Ladislav Beran.
Certificate:12
Genre: Action/Fantasy
Awards: best make up
Hellboy (Pearlman) is a demon/man who was brought from a baby by proffesor Trevor "broom" Bruttenholm (Hurt). He fights demons and monsters in his adult life with a fellow monster Abe Sapien (Jones). In the film hellboy John Myers (Evans) joins the group to look after Hellboy as he seems to get into trouble with the public, being red with devil horns and a pointy tale. Hellboy's love interst is Liz Sherman (Blair) who can engulf herself in flames.
The bad guys in Hellboy are a dark wizard man named Grigori Rasputin (Roden) who wants to bring the lord of chaos into the world for no apparent reason and Karl Ruprecht Kroenen (Beran): An undead nazi warrior who was Hitler's top assassin. He is loyal to Rasputin and helps him with his cause.
The best scene in Hellboy is the opening with the soldiers trying to stop Rasputin from summoning the lord of chaos for Hitler. Compared to Hellboy2 this film is inferior but I like Hellboy for my favourate charector: Karl the assassin.
****Good
