Review of Riddles of the Sphinx

Am not sure I understood anything that went on in this dire movie. The main cast say a lot of dialogue but nothing made sense. The ending was particularly puzzling. The main characters consist of not a Lara Croft called Jessica, not an Indiana Jones called Robert, an obvious duplicitous agent called Ryder and a very annoying smug teenager called Karen. They go around the world on a quest for.. well who knows?.. and it's all quite boring. The actors don't make any impression though they can't be blamed I suppose for the painfully routine script. The CGI sphinx wasn't too bad looking in some shots but apart from that there was no visual appeal, particularly as the exotic locations were obviously filmed in Canada. A low budget movie is not automatically a bad movie but this one was definitely so.
