Joe Leydon Variety Perhaps the very first made-for-vid prequel to a spinoff from a sequel to a remake, The Scorpion King 2: Rise of a Warrior suggests a CW television network version of a swords-and-sorcery saga. Aug 28, 2008 Full Review Mark Pollard Kung Fu Cinema Lightly entertaining but forgettable B-actioner best described as JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS meets HERCULES: THE LEGENDARY JOURNEYS. Rated: 2/5 Aug 23, 2008 Full Review Scott Weinberg FEARnet Just maybe worthy of a bored afternoon, provided you're either A) 14 years old, or B) a longtime fan of the "quest" movies and you want something to poke a little fun at. (Or maybe not.) Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 22, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Jelisije J A nice dum little tv action movie that provides mild entertainment in an ok squel to the original Scorpion King. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/20/24 Full Review day n Yeah I knew it wasn't Oscar worthy but when miss Becker entered it became downright embarrassing, her attempt to sound and look seductive was cringe worthy at best. Miss Becker should rather not act at all Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review william k Lackluster sandal action flick has not much to offer besides some production value, but is highly predictable - and forgettable Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member no la e visto no me deja Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Horrible acting, horrible storyline! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member With terrible low-budget special effects - hell, we never get a good look at the Minotaur -, mundane action sequences, uninteresting performances and a generic story with generic direct-to-DVD cinematography along with some uneven camerawork and editing, The Scorpion King 2 has no reason to exist. But why does it exist, you ask? Simple, just to "promote" that terrible Tomb of the Dragon Emperor movie, which looks like a masterpiece in comparison to this garbage. You're better off with the first Scorpion King, which is far from great but not really a bad movie, either. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
