Summary: Even the Mummy's a HUNK
Review: If you expect a remake of the 1940's ,forget it ! but if you like great fun,laughs,terrific special effects and have a need to be entertained,without much meaningful dialog...this is the movie for you !!!!! Even the guy who plays the mummy's an eye-full,how often can you say that about the " bad guy " ? My husband and I see one to two movies a week and NEVER listen to the critics,we loved all the flops they ever proclaimed !! As soon as this movie is for sale,we will add it to our library of some 300 movies. Enjoy it...want stimulation for your grey matter..do the crosswords !!!

Summary: For the brain dead only
Review: The fact that this movie has been compared to Raiders of the Lost Ark is sacrilege. This is a pale imitation of several different (and better) films made by people who seem to think that special effects make a good substitute for an original story and decent characterisation. The stereotyping of the characters is annoying and offensive. The Egyptians are all dirty and rude, the Americans are gun-crazy rambo's, the English are bumbling idiots (we're not all librarians you know!). Rachel Weisz and John Hannah were painful to watch at times. The most interesting character was Ardeth Bey who only had a small supporting role. Completely disappointing - it could've been so much better.

Summary: Not too bad, actually
Review: Well, at first when I went to see this movie I wasn't expecting much. I was, however, decently surprised. Brendan Fraser was looking pretty cute, and the plot was good. Rent it and be pleasantly surprised as I was.

Rating:
Summary: Great acting and action. It was great special effects.
Review: Some may say it was predictable and it was in parts but you actually got a few surprises. It was fun to watch and a movie that I can see over and over. The development of the characters was great.

Summary: Rachel Wiesz is incredible!
Review: I loved this movie, and that surprised me, because my tastes tend toward Bogart movies, or Gregory Peck or Audrey Hepburn. But this movie is wonderful! one minute you're scared out of your mind, and the next you are laughing. Not many movies can pull that off. Frasier is also solid (in my opinion) in his role. OK, so he's not Bogart, but still convincing in his charactar. Rachel Wiesz is nothing short of amazing! Of course, those big brown eyes do help! I think she has to be the most stunningly beautiful actress around. "The Mummy" is no classic, but its still worth the money for one wild ride!

Summary: great special effects
Review: i thought the movie had great special effects as well as a very good story line. the characters showed deapth and the way the egyptain culture was potrayed in th movie was as true to the truth as we now understand it without being over engrossed with the technical side of the embalming technque. the movie reminded me of the older horror movie , in that you did;ntneed to slash your way through everyone you meet an turn them into hamberger. there was also humor in the film which keep it for being to dry a film,it helped to keep the action moving along. all in all the film is suitable for just about everone execpt the very young who might be scared by some of the special effects. example the bettles, or the embalming scene.

Summary: Adventurous and funny.
Review: This movie is a perfect example of a summer movie. It had action, suspense, drama, and comedy. The pairing of Raechel Weisz and Brendan Fraser was far fetched, but overall, it was great.

Rating:

Summary: OLD FASHIONED FUN
Review: Though lacking the subtlety that made the original 1932 classic so great, this remake manages to combine the thrills of "Indiana Jones", the awe of a Ray Harryhausen stop motion flick and the spooky fun of Universal's 1940's "B" Mummy series. Brendan Fraser is very cheerful and likeable, and Rachel Weisz is pleasing to the eye, and a good actress to boot. The DVD picture and sound are first rate; the extras are almost as fun to watch as the movie.
