China
Long ago a mythic battle between good and evil
played out in ancient China.
The country was torn by civil war
with many kingdoms struggling for land and power.
But one king had a ruthless ambition
to make himself emperor by the sword.
The other rulers hired assassins to kill the king before he could conquered them all.
Kingdom by kingdom, his army swept away everything in its path and anyone who resisted
met a terrible fate.
The country was his.
He was now the emperor of all under heaven.
He enslaved his conquered enemies and forced them to build his great wall.
When they were dead or useless he had them buried beneath it.
The emperor's mystics taught him mastery of the five elements.
Fire, water, earth, wood and metal.
His power seemed without limit.
He was a master of millions.
But like the lowliest peasant he could not stop growing old.
He needed to defeat his last enemy.
Death itself.
One day news came of a powerful witch
who was rumored to know the secret to eternal life.
He ordered the General Ming, his oldest friend and trusted ally to find her.
The witch was named Zi Yuan and she was nothing like the general expected.
On the western border to the monastery of Turfan.
There was housed the greatest library in the ancient world
and Zi Yuan was sure the secret to eternal life was here.
It was the long lost oracle bones.
A collection of all the mystical secrets of the ancient world.
The emperor's answer was here.
Along with other magic beyond imagining.
She casted the spell in Sanskrit in ancient language that the emperor did not understand.
The curse must never be lifted,
or the emperor will rise again to enslave all of mankind.
On that dark day there will be nothing and no one to save us.
You can run but you can't hide.
Fly Fishing.
Hm... one o'clock.
Ten o'clock.
One o'clock... ten o'clock.
One o'.... and this is something for ... to do..
Bite on this!
Eve, I'm home.
Mrs O'Conell is at her book reading, said she'll be home for dinner.
Oh, great, cause we're having fish.
You don't think I'd catch nothing, didn't you?
I had the the utmost conviction, Sir.
There's a hook in your neck, Sir. Shall I fetch the wire cutters?
Now savely abord the airship, with the Mummy finally vanquished,
Dashiell swept Scarlet into his arms.
Oh God, Scarlet. I thought I've lost you.
For a moment there you did.
Bathed in rays of golden sunlight,
our heroes sealed their reunion with a kiss of timeless passion.
Their love deeper and surer than ever.
Miss O'Connell
We're all dying to know, is this Scarlet O'Keefe character really based on you?
Honestly I can say she's completely a different person.
Anymore question?
Miss O'Connell. Is your life today as exciting as it was before the war?
I wish my life was that exciting now.
- Will be any other book in this series? - Do you believe in happy ending?
Isn't this blissful?
Dinner at home.
- Every night. - Every night.
Here's to retirement.
May we stay this happy forever.
Still no letter from Alex.
I sent him three in the last month.
What do you expect?
I only hear about this kid when he gets kicked out the college or needs more money.
I am sure he's just buried in his studies.
So how did your reading book go?
Oh fine, thank you.
Until they asked me when there will be another mummy adventure.
But you did promise the publisher third book.
I know,
but I spent my night staring at a blank page completely blocked.
We can skip dinner,
and I could attempt to.....
inspire you. Upstairs?
Oh, that so sweet of you darling.
I am going to sit at that typewriter until something exciting comes out.
Thank you.
Oh, trout. How lovely.
So happy you found a hobby that doesn't involve guns.
Good, Wilson is back.
You're a couple days late, professor. I was beginning to think you run into baddies
Oh my dear fellow, thank you for your concern.
Are you thirsty? Yes, please, thank you.
Look, when I saw you're standing up there,
I thought I was looking at your father. You really are Rick O'Connell's son.
Yeah well hopefully after today, he'll be known as Alex O'Connell's father.
Oh what a powerful face.
When I told my colleagues at the museum that you have discovered the colossus, they were thrilled.
- Yeah, however... - I know.
How am I gonna get into that tomb.
Don't let the baggage get you down.
It was you who discovered the Bembridge journal, And with it you'll discover the emperor.
I have complete faith in you, Alex.
Thank you, professor.
Thanks for believing in me.
That mummy...
here...
Vile mummy?
Cursed mummy.
Mysterious mummy.
Lig... mummy. Prepare to Die
Rick, darling, where are you?
I am ready to be inspired.
Oh, do you remember the time the mummy had me tied down?
And you came to save me. And you...
...cut, no, you tore open the ropes, that's what you did.
Just as he was about to plunge his ... Oh rats
Watch out!
Sir Collin Bembridge.
He went searching for this tomb seventy years ago
And left a notice as a warning.
Unfortunately this is not the dead man that is gonna make us famous
Let's keep moving.
Look at that.
What is that?
No no no, don't Alex, stay here.
Come on.
this is just what comes with the territory and he knew that better than anyone.
Alex! Alright, good job.
All the warriors are facing into this point.
- It's for waiting a order from the emperor. - Then where is he?
You don't think some bloody grave robbers beat us to the prize do you?
No, he is still here.
See, this is a Feng Shui compass.
Okay, now. This. Okay this is true north.
But the Feng Shui compass is set in the opposite direction.
Alright, we need the real one.
Alright, here we go.
Alex, it's me.
Are you alright?
Tell me have we found the emperor?
What is it?
It's totally the greatest find since King Tut.
If he's awakened, all mortals should despair
It's definitely him.
He even has his concubines buried alive with him.
Selfish bastard.
Hey professor Wilson. Will you come down and take a look?
Or are you ... so overwhelmed you can't talk?
Let's go, professor.
We got a lot to do.
First of all I'd just like to say that the foreign office appreciates all you did during the war.
But I've been sent to offer you one last assignment.
I am afraid we've retired from the espionage game. Haven't we dear?
Yeah, we don't that anymore. We're finished. Completely done.
Just out of curiosity, what is the mission anyway?
We need you to courier this ... to Shanghai.
- It's a piece of eyes. - It's the eye of Shangri-La.
If you believe the legend it points the way to the pool of eternal life.
It was smuggled out of China in 1940.
Now the government would like to return it to the Shanghai museum
as a sign good faith to the Chinese people.
And with your expertise in the field we naturally, thought of you.
Oh we'd be so flatterred.
But Rick and I, we made a promise to each other after the war, that we would settle down.
That's right, dear. We didn't... we...
I See. Well I must say that I'm a little dissapointed.
Postwar China is very dangerous.
There are a lot of factions that would love to get their hands on the eye of Shangri-La.
In lesser hands, the eye could be lost forever.
We couldn't let that happened, could we?
- No, it could be bad for the world. - Terrible!
You know, she has a brother who lives in Shanghai. - Jonathan!
Yes, he owns a nightclub, if I'm not mistaken?
We have been meaning to visit. We could drop and surprise him.
- Say hello? - Why not.
Does this mean we can count on you one last time?
Here's to you, Princess.
And Imhotep, may the bugger actually stay there. Na zdoro'vye
Hi, can you buy drink for me?
Excuse me. Alex, Alex, you back again.
Come here let me get you a drink.
Make that two.
Sorry Uncle John, but I got a better offer.
No, Alex, no, look, listen. How can I...
Come here.
To put it in archeological terms, that's a tomb in which many pharaoh have laid.
Now listen, listen. Just think about me for a moment, alright.
Your discovery will go public in few days, and your parents are sure to find out.
They are not gonna be happy that you dropped out the school, and....
Will you relax, Uncle John? Okay?
I'm here, they're a long way away....
Excuse me, okay, I have some excavation to do.
- You are in China - Eve, Rick. What are you... this is so...
- Brother, we love to see you. - I had no idea he was here.
- Who is here? - Who?
Go away!
I'm gonna kill you, kid!
Not so fast,. That's my... kid
- Mad Dog Maguire? - Ricochet O'Connell!
C'mon let's get back and have a good time!
Music.
- How long has it been? - Egypt, '23 French foreign legion.
This guy can land a plane on anything.
Ricochet, he has his hands on my girl.
Now son or not son, I got to give him a beating.
Get out of the way, Dad.
As much as I'd really like you to teach him a valuable lesson.
His mother would be upset. Very upset! You have a lot to explain
Wive now, and kid. Things are a little bit different, I'm sure you understand.
Let me make it up to you.
I'm just surprised to see you here. That's all. Alright?
I'm now here five minutes, and I'm already pulling your fannie out of the fire.
- You're going back to college. - I don't think this is gonna work though
You two show up to tell me me what to do
Who? We should sit down and discuss this like a family.
No, thanks mom. We haven't been a family in a long time.
Hey don't you bring your back on me. Alex.
Alex, come here..
Don't look at me like that. Ohh
- It is all your fault. - My fault?
You're the one who's always smothering him and
you can't wait more than five minutes to wipe his nose.
Perhaps I was over compensating for the fact that you never took interest into his life.
His life was my top priority.
How many times have I saved that kid from breaking his neck?
A little warmth and encouragement would have been nice
I am his father.
It's implied.
We spent our entire lives searching for priceless artefacts,
and the one thing that's most precious to us, we lost.
We can't let Alex become
a stranger's picture on a mantle.
- We can't let it happen. - No we can't.
How are we gonna fix this?
We need to do it together.
I think it's faster if we took a ricksaw.
It's Chinese New Year.
Don't you love this country they have so many extra holidays and
drinking is mandatory.
I can't believe we get to see your first big discovery.
It''s so exciting. Well after last night I'm surprised you want to see it at all
Listen, I'll pick you up in about an hour.
You're not coming?
No, no. I've seen enough mummies to last a lifetime.
There it is.
Oh, my darling. Very impressive.
- When do you get to open the sarcophagus? - I have to wait till the official red tape has been cut.
Do the words "rest in peace" mean anything to you two?
So mom, why don't you stick around for next few days
and we can open it together?
I would like that very much, thanks.
Alex. Why don't you go and tell professor Wilson that we are here.
Just, don't wake the big guy up when I'm gone.
This is all...
Really really big stuff.
Whatever you say, Dad.
I guess mummies bring up the best in me.
Taken a wrong turn in Cairo?
Sorry to interrupt.
- Roger. - Professor Roger Wilson.
Hello Rick.
You know when Alex told me that you'd gone legit
I just couldn't believe my ears.
Well now I just pillage tombs in the name of preservation.
Congratulations on your latest discovery.
Alex deserves all the credit.
He's a hell of a kid. He's like the son I never had.
He's the only one we got.
So next time you send him on one of your field trips you give us the heads up first ?
Yes, yes of course.
And now I believe you have something that belongs to us.
What's that?
Oh, you mean this?
All yours.
I knew I could rely on you two.
I'm afraid your work is not done yet.
Mr. and Mrs O'Connell, I'd like to introduce you to a friend of mine.
General Yang. Roger!
Well, he is the man who financed Alex's dig.
We're in this together. Search them
The eye belongs to the Chinese people. You can't do this.
So Roge, you snake...
How much did the Yin and Yang pay you?
Enough to pull strings at the foreign office.
Make sure it was you two who delivered the eye.
Turn around.
The eye contains the elixir from the pool of eternal life.
I need you to open it.
Mrs. O'Connell
No. You're going to use it to wake the emperor, aren't you?
And his terracota army.
At least that's the general idea.
Raising an army of mummies is insane
Listen, Yang.
Go Easy. Time to open the sarcophagus.
Move.
Read the inscription. Now!
Ancient chinese isn't my forté.
Here's some encouragement. Wilson!
- Don't do it! - No Evie, don't do it.
They'll just gonna kill me anyway.
The inscription says that only a drop of blood
from a person of pure heart can open the Eye.
Your husband was right.
Only the pure of heart will sacrifice themselves for the one they love.
Open it.
You never called after our last date.
I don't have time for games. Alex
You know my name, but I don't know yours.
It's Lin.
You errr wanna explain me why you tried to kill me?
We could do that or we could save your parents.
Wilson, you son of a bitch.
Get on with it O'Connell. Alright
Once this touches him, the emperor will rise.
To rule again.
Finish him off.
Alex, please, don't!
It's not him This is an eunuch.
It's a decoy.
Where the hell is the emperor?
Stay!
No!
Here we go again.
Wait for me. I'm coming with you.
Watch out!
Gotta put this mummy down fast. The longer he's awake, the stronger he'll get.
Open the gate!
Ya, ya, ya, I know.
You wanna drive?
- Why not. - God I love a woman who can drive a truck.
Hey pal, I'm sorry but... Happy new year!
Hurry, honey!
Jonathan, get the back.
Sorry about the Rolls.
You guys are like mummy magnets!
We have to turn you around!
Excuse me.
- Hey, we can use this. - Gimme that.
Oh ya, that's a better idea. Stop looking about. They are getting away!
- Aim to the emperor! - Aim to the emperor?
I'm trying.
Fire!
Did we get him?
- Fire! - What?
-Your ass is on fire! - My ass?
- My ass is on fire!
Spank my ass!
Alright, here I come.
Give me your hand.
- Where are you going? - Told me it's a shortcut.
I told you it was a shortcut.
Now they're chasing us.
Give me your hand. Here, you're gonna need this.
- Don't wait for me. - Where are you going?
Where's Rick?
Where do you think?
Gimme your hand. Get on the horse.
Get back, Dad.
Alexander Wilbert O'Connell! You gonna get on this horse this instant!
Get out the way!
We've to go back to help Rick.
Forget Rick! Here they come!
I'll go after the emperor.
Trust me, I got a little more experience with mummies
And I have the only weapon that can kill him.
OK I'll cover you. Let's go!
- I thought you were dead. - He missed.
Watch out!
Thanks Rick, can you get the cab? Does it look like I have a wallet?
You know I would have killed the emperor if you two hadn't blown my cover
had everything under control.
Oh yeah, that's exactly what we were thinking.
Oh yeah good going you raised another mummy.
And this bugger's got superpowers.
He got control over fire, water, and metal and who knows what else.
- And you dug him up anyway. - Hey you're not gonna pin this one on me, Dad.
Stop it you two..
No one's to blame here.
- Wilson manipulated all of us.
I appologize for my parents.
But I, I thought we worked really well together.
Except we failed.
I'm sorry, we haven't been properly introduced.
- Who are you exactly? - My name is Lin.
My family has watched over the emperor's tomb for centuries.
The emperor can not be killed. Unless he's stabbed through the heart with this.
My mother put a curse on it long ago.
Well could we have a minute Alex.
- Sit. - Down.
- What do you really know about this girl? - Not much.
But after I help her I'm willing to go on a little faith.
- Faith? - Time is running out.
-You don't believe the concept of personal space, do you?
If the emperor reaches Shangri-La, and drinks from the pool of eternal life,
he will raise his army, and no one will be safe.
As much as I'd like to stay this boyishly handsome forever. Shangri-La is a crock.
Well that's what you used to say about mummies too Johny. You did pretty well. Good Point.
The gateway to Shangri-La lies in a mountain pass, high in the Himalayas.
Beyond it, is a golden tower
Once the diamond is placed at the top, it will point the way to Shangri-La.
Yang still has the diamond.
And that where he and the emperor will go.
She's right. All the legends of the eye mention the gateway.
Well look here Alex She knows what what
Now let's just say that we were to believe you.
Could you guide us there?
Yes, I have been there once.
I remember the way.
Himalayas, we're going to need a plane.
I know just the Mad Dog for the job.
A self-respecting pilot would land on the valley floor,
But I don't have any self respect, so I'll put you down half way up the mountain.
That should give us a good advantage.
Of course I can't guarantee anyone of us will live.
I'd tell you to fasten your seat belts, but I was too cheap to buy any
Why am I laughing?
Here we go!
Nobody move, nobody move!
What is that god-awful smell?
The yak, the yak.
Delta. Tango. Alfa. to Ricochet. Come in Ricochet.
Delta. Tango. Alpha. this is Ricochet. Go ahead Mad Dog.
Yeah you know that Yang fellow you told me to keep me eye open for. He's just shown up.
Ricochet out. Thanks Mad Dog.
That's all people. Let's go.
- John, wake up - What?
We're more than half way there, we're gonna camp there for the night.
Lin says if we leave at first light, we'll reach the gateway by noon.
Did she happen to mention how she knows so much about the gateway?
No, not really. Kind of mysterious.
She certainly managed to enchant you.
Come on Alex. You obviously like her.
Mom, the thin xxx here. clearly messing with your head.
Whatever secret that she's hiding
just don't want to see you get hurt.
I appreciate that but
You know. I had my faith share experience with the opposite sex.
Really?
How many experiences are we talking about?
You shouldn't ask questions you don't want to know the answers to OK mom?
Right!
Hey, Mom.
Sorry I blamed you guys for raising the emperor.
What's so funny?
My mother is under the impression there's something between us.
I hope nothing romantic.
Yeah well I told here there was no chance of that.
We're at opposites you and me, right?
You guard tombs, I raid them.
You like ancient knives, I'm into guns.
Those are some pretty insurmountable odds
- Absolutely. - Well, good.
Now that we've cleared that up, we can focus on taking down the emperor.
I agree totally
Besides, you're not my type.
Of course not. You don't like a woman who can knock you on your back side.
Expression, kick my ass.
For the record, you didn't
It's not easy being me.
But then I don't suppose it is easy being you. You know girl
If I had met a girl like you, Geraldine. Yeah, hard work, and you don't say much.
A little bit hairy, but I don't mind that.
There it is! We found it!
The gateway of Shangri-La.
Go, girl, go, go! Free!
Go Geraldine! Be free!
What did you do now? Rob an armory?
Have you ever seen a Walter P-38? It's prety puny compared to this peacekeeper.
Well, it's not about size, Dad. It's about stamina.
You want power?
I'll give you a Thompson submachine gun.
50 rounds a drum. 25 a mag.
Tommy is good, Dad. But the cocking mechanism always jams.
Here, check out the russian PPS personal assault weapon. Now this is the future right here.
You know it's experience that wins the day it's not all about fire power.
Boys, if I may? Do we have a plan for the emperor?
Ya, we gonna hit him high hard fast and smash him like a Ming vase.
An if that doesn't work? We go to plan B.
Plan B! You go upstairs, you blow that gold tower thing.
You light it up you blow it up sky high.
Dad, if the explosion doesn't kill us, the avalanche will.
You got a better idea? Yeah I do
I say we ambush with long-range rifles with silencers...
We can finish him off with Lin's dagger.
Look, I am sorry I just don't have much faith in your girlfriend's magic dagger.
Ok data, she's not my girlfriend. - You say that now. Well I still don't trust her.
Well I do. So just trust my judgement. Okay?
Look kid. I put down more mummies in my time than you.
- You put down one mummy, Dad. - Yeah, same mummy, twice!
Hand me the green wire. Will you, please?
- Are you sure you know what you are doing? - Of course I've done this a hundred times.
If the emperor places the eye up there, all will be lost.
Let's give 'em up a warm O'Connell welcome.
Fire!
We've got take out those bazookas!
Now!
Move, move, move...
Time to go to plan B, blow up the tower.
Hey, I'm actually a bit concerned about plan B. Can we go straight to the plan C?
Just make it back, I cover you up.
Okay, let's go! Come on! Come on!
My last ones
Yeti! Show up here!
I need you! Yeti! Come now, quick!
Abominable snowmen?
The Tibetan called them Yeti.
She speaks Yeti?
Why do I always have to save the day?
Get the other guy!
You can die slow or you can die fast
Ya! I did it!
Oh, man. I did it.
Time for a retreat I think.
I'm on your team.
I'm a team player! One for all, all for me, kind of thing?
The dynamite, always dynamite! We should
get out of here..
Wow, back off! Back off!
I hate mummies! They never play fair.
Dad! Dad! What are you doing?
Over here! Over here, come on!
That's a diamond.
I could use a diamond like that.
Dad!
Avalanche!
Help! Help me!
Please, help me!
I'm fine, and I'm still alive.
Help me please, somebody help me?
We're over here! over here
Alex! Mom, we're over here!
Oh my god.
We've got to take him to Shangri-La. Now it's our only chance.
We've made it!
The pool!
Thank you.
You must rest. We'll take you into my chamber.
Well it's not everyone that gets their brother all back from the dead. Yeah give me my four-score years and any
Wow, is this Shangri-La?
I could live here. Lots of opportunity
A casino.
He's resting well. Thank you.
How did you get involved in all of this?
The emperor murdered the only man I've ever loved.
Lin's father.
I would have died too by his hand...
...if the Yeti had not found me and brought me to this pool.
How did this all happen? This is before Christ.
How long have you guarded this tomb?
Over two thousand years.
The emperor must never be allowed to reach the pool.
Or he will have the power to raise his army.
And once he becomes immortal, he can transform himself into the most hidious creatures ever seen.
I will take the first watch at the entrance.
You know, I've no problem dating an older woman.
I'm afraid we can't be together.
Why?
Because I'm gonna live forever.
I don't want to watch you die.
So what? That's it?
You just gonna sit on the sideline for eternity.
My mother has mourned my father for centuries.
I don't know if my heart can bear it.
People can live an entire lifetime in one moment
I watch my parents do it everyday.
Alex, your father's awake. Get up here.
If this is heaven, it is pretty good so far.
Nice to see some things never change.
Go easy on him, he feels terrible.
I saw you lying there, Dad.
I've never been so scared in my life.
Well, that makes two of us.
You're not supposed to die. you're Ricochet O'Connell, right?
You're beat up, you're tossed around but, you always stand there in the end.
I never really thought of a world without you.
The truth is
I'm just trying ...
I'm just ...
I am trying to be a good husband and I am trying to be a good parent
and the truth is I've been dropped the ball lately and i'm... you know...
I ain't been the world's greatest son.
I know but cause you get it from her side of the family.
Come here.
My boys.
Oh, no. His power have been fully restored.
Time to go.
He is immortal.
Hey you three any shape something son of a bitch.
He is taking her back to his tomb ro raise his army.
- Is there a faster way down from here? - The Yeti. They'll help.
But he's already in the air. It will be too late.
Mad Dog'll outfly a three headed lizard anyday of the week. Let's go
Portside, nine o'clock.
Rick, should I quit drinking?
Jonathan to Rick. You better get a move on if you gonna beat them to the tomb.
Just get back here as fast you can with reinforcements, no sight seeing.
Here, Dad.
Lent me? Nice.
The terracotta army is not indestructible until it crosses the Great Wall.
That's comforting. How exactly are we supposed to fend them off?
When the emperor build the wall he buried his enemies underneath and cursed their souls to hold it up for eternity.
Most of them were conquered soldiers.
I will call them to battle once again.
Unlock an altar, rise an army, that sounds like a plan.
Let's go.
- Alex. Where did he go? - Where do you think?
Open the gate of the past and free the souls of the wrongfully damned.
In the name of the ancesters and the righteous, I sacrifice my immortality and that of my daughter
so that you may rise this day.
Bring down the wrath of the oppressed on this emperor and all who follow him.
I call upon the hundreds, and the thousands,
that you may rise up and seize this moment
to take your victory
to take your justice.
And to take your revenge!
These are
your good undead guys, right?
Zi Yuan sent us.
I don't think he speaks English
We're with Zi Yuan.
Incoming.
Welcome to the twentieth century.
I really hate mummies.
Run!
Die you mummy bastard! Die!
There's no call for the bad language.
Any regrets, darling?
None, not ever.
- You OK? - Yeah, sure.
No problem
We had it completely under control.
Does this guy ever run out of tricks?
Mother! No!
Mother.
Pierce through his heart
You must live.
My daughter.
She said through the heart
Through the heart.
Enough tricks! Where is your honor?
Fight like a man.
Divide...
and conquer.
Now you can rule...
...in hell!
Evening girls. Looking well.
Good evening Mr. Maguire.
You dance great for an old lady.
Someone told me to stop living on the sidelines.
Well he sounds like a smart guy.
He is.
Ciao-Ciao Shanghai, Peru, here I come.
