Summary: An "E Ticket"
Review: I originally went to see a horror movie to pass the time and had a great time instead. The movie is nothing more than fun --"Citizen Kane" it's not -- an "E Ticket" it is. (Note: it's the same with "The Mummy Returns" -- pure entertainment!)

Summary: ok ok ok
Review: yea ok, the acting was subpar the special effect kind of chessy, and like an Indian Jones movie, but who could look away with Brendan Fraser, Arnold Vosloo and Oded Fehr filling the screen???? I watch a movie to turn my brain off and to relax. I don't want to be thinking about difficult plots and complex characters. I know that sounds childish, but movies are for ENTERTAINMENT. It did keep my interest, had some funny parts and some that not scared, but surprised. So, if you have some down time and need to look at some pretty faces and bods, take load off and sit back and relax.

Summary: The Mummy ROCKS!!!
Review: Egyptologists Evelyn and Jonathan Carnahan discover a map that leads to the hidden city of Hamunaptra - the city of the dead. They hire dashing American Rick O'Connell to take them there, not knowing that Hamunaptra is the resting place of the evil-to-the-core Imhotep, (former) high priest of Osiris and. Imhotep is undead, t. i. his soul is stil locked to this world, and has tolerated the most horrible of Egyptian curses - the Hom-Dai - for 3000 years. He was the only man ever to be cursed this way, for his crime was to sleep with the Pharaoh's mistress (Anck-su-namun), kill the Pharaoh and defy the gods in an attempt to undo Anck-su-namun's suicide. When Evelyn accidentally releases Imhotep from his grave, and with him the ten plagues of Egypt, the now-immortal Imhotep is bent on one thing: Bringing Anck-su-namun back to life. This he can do in one way: He must find the Book of the Dead, its key, Anck-su-namun's mummy, and one human female. He will then perform the ritual for raising Anck-su-namun's soul out of the underworld, insert the soul in the mummy, and kill the person, so Anck-su-namun's soul may be united with a "fresh" body. He has chosen his victim: Evelyn. Now it is up to Rick (and Jonathan) to save Evy and send Imhotep back to the underworld - before it is too late! This movie is everything you can ask for- and more! I haven't seen the like of it since Indiana Jones! Prepare - beware - behold!!! Imhotep's mummy was really neat, and how he regenerated himself was awesome. I don't see what my friends are saying about the Scarab beetles being gross - with the exception of the one Imhotep ate, UGGGGHHHH! This movie deserves more than 5 stars. And btw: Go see the Mummy Returns. It's better yet!!!

Summary: Great Movie, Awesome DVD Edition
Review: I see "The Mummy" as a movie with several elements mummy wrapped into one great movie. It has action/adventure, comedy, superb special effects, a very interesting story line, and elements of horror. If you love this movie and you have a DVD player, I highly recommend owning this on the Ultimate Edition. After seeing this, go see "The Mummy Returns", it will expand the story of the first one and the story as a whole will make more sense. The Ultimate Edition has a documentary of how they made the special effects on the film, definately interesting information. It also gives you information about the sequel. This is definately one of the best movies I've ever seen.

Summary: Should have Stayed in Wraps
Review: I was LOL throughout most of this flick and had no remorse about hitting the rewind a full 10 minutes before the finale. With predictable transparent characters and recycled story lines, this movie plays more like a spoof than an actual sci-fi thriller. Some good special effects seem woefully out of place when draped on a sophomoric story line, like icing on stale cake. The best thing about the video is 1)i didn't waste my money at the box office and 2) it's fair warning about the sequel.

Summary: 'Two Mummies' for the price of one!
Review: This 'Ultimate Edition' has a number of improvements over the previous DVD version(s). A DTS soundtrack has been added to the widescreen theatrical presentation of the movie which is a noticeable improvement in sound quality over the previous Dolby Digital-only version. A second disc contains a zoomed-in full-screen presentation which was previously available as a separate 'Special Edition' (along with the same extras as found on both widescreen discs). This 'close-up version' is very revealing of subtle nuances such as the expressions on actors' faces which are hard to read in a shrunk-down letterbox (or VHS transfer) and since the camera is always moving, you still get to see the glorious movie-set on either side. In addition to the mutitude of extras found on the previous 'special edition' (and Disc One of this set) Disc-Two includes a collection of (letterboxed) trailers and a preview of 'The Mummy Returns' which revealed a little too much of the plot for those who haven't seen it yet. Disc-Two also features some storyboard-to-finished-movie comparisons with the two letterboxed frames stacked one above the other. There are some before-and-after special-effects sequences similar to those found in the 'Building A Better Mummy' featurette but which replay the corresponding sequence from the full-screen version. Almost hidden away in the elaborate menu is a photo-montage which is accompanied by over four minutes of isolated Jerry Goldsmith score recorded in glorious Dolby Digital 5.1 surround. Probably because of the extra detail in the picture, there is no room for DTS on Disc Two. If you already own the widescreen or full-frame 'special edition' of this title, it's worth buying the Ultimate Edition for the alternate framing, DTS option and 'The Mummy Returns' preview. If you don't already own a DVD version of this title then the Ultimate Edition is an essential purchase.

Summary: A Must See Movie
Review: I've watched this movie several times and just can't seem to get enough. You'll be disappointed if you're expecting a true horror movie. It has lots of action mixed with humor, a little romance and even some horror. What really caught my attention was a several thousand year old love affair. Can you imagine? The movie has a well defined plot and you have no problems at all keeping track of whats going on. As one guy puts it in the movie," kill the creature, Save the Girl"

Summary: I'm so glad I waited
Review: For the Ultimate DVD of "THE MUMMY". This offering is much expanded from the previous DVD release. It offers the film in regular and widescreen versions, and in addition to the commentary from writer/director Steven Sommers and editor Bob Duscay that was included in the previous release, it also contains two additional commentaries, one from star Brendan Fraser, and one that includes Oded Fehr, Arnold Vosloo, And Kevin J. O'Connor. To hear that many separate versions of what went on during filming is marvelous! We also get deleted scenes, documentaries, previews of the sequel, trailers, and a gorgeous photo montage on two DVDs that encompass just about everything you could possibly want to know about mummies and movies. And at the heart of it all? A terrific film that never fails to make me jump, laugh, gasp, and feel good. Of course, Brendan Fraser is fabulous, but the performances of the supporting cast are also amazing, particularly John Hannah in the uncharacteristic role of a comic Englishman. Worth having in your collection.
