When you combine two of this summer's biggest disappointments, Baywatch and The Mummy, you get 2002's The Scorpion King. Jenna and Chris are back to discuss/be utterly confused by the film and its reviews.
Did this movie sacrifice substance over The Rock's WWE star-power? Why are the reviews for this movie so finicky? If The Rock had played Black Adam in the mid-2000s, who do we think could've played Shazam? Listen to find out.
