A straightforward fantasy-action adventure built on a quest for a magical artifact and the defeat of a warlord, with moderate spectacle and combat but limited emotional depth.

The Scorpion King teams up with a female warrior named Tala, who is the sister of The Nubian King. Together they search for a legendary relic known as The Book of Souls, which will allow them to put an end to an evil warlord.
