Summary: To Mummy with love!
Review: The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser is an action-packed roller coaster ride. Great fun and some cute scares the kids will
love. My eight year old nephew loved it! Let me just add that Arnold Vosloo fans will get a kick out of seeing him as the sexy bald Mummy and Oded Fehr is also easy on the eyes.

Rating: 1 stars

Summary: The Monkey Returns
Review: I was expecting a great dvd experience, especially since I had no time to see it in theatre. Thank goodness I didnt see it in the theatre, and thank good I rented this movie instead of buying it. For people who make fun of "No Brain Action Movies", stop, cause they are supposed to be fun. However, this is a no brain movie with baddddd action. Infact, not enough action. You will note the following:

-For some reason, the "evil" Imhotep from the first movie plays a little girl with no good powers.
-The CGI Scorpian King at the end was sad, really sad. I would've prefered the Rock(Scorpion King)in a "human" body.
-The comedy in this movie is bad, just not horrible.
-Brendan Frasier's over-acting
-THIS MOVIE IS NOT NON-STOP ACTION! TOO MUCH TALKING.

I would not even pay 5 dollars to BUY this movie. If you like ACTION-MONSTER THRILLERS with LITTLE ACTION, BAD MONSTERS, and NO THRILLS, then buy this movie right away!!!!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: So, where did the Scorpion King go?
Review: First off, I LOVED the first movie. Brendan Frasier was a great hero. BUT for Mummy Returns, all the movie trailers featured The Rock! And where was he? 30 freaking seconds worth in the prologue! Those of you who have read my reviews know I am big on cinematography and soundtrack. OK. The filming was very breathtaking. But the soundtrack was SO OFF! It rose where it should have been subtle, and faded when it should have punctuated. And soundtrack makes 50% of the film. Nice try with the surround sound, but a zither and bow saw would have enhanced this movie. Fraser did his beat, but he came out like a real sissy. This movie was more about Evie coming into her own. Long live women's lib. If it wasn't for some cheesy but nice special effects, this would be a chick version of an action film. Now, bear in mind, I watched this DVD THREE times to find something great, and all I found was the 2.5 seconds of Ak-san-amoon in the past, wearing the body paint top. Yes, there are some nice special effects eye candy, but in no way does this film live up to the greatness of the first. THAT was a truly excellent film, on a par with the Indiana Jones films (okay, not the Temple of Doom) I am so sorry Brendan, but George of The Jungle and Blast From the Past where more fun to watch, and you ARE an actor with talent. You have proved that. Still, I did watch this 3 times. And I give it three stars. Oh my God. I must be getting soft...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad, Terrible, Awful, Horrid.....
Review: OK, now I'll admit to sort-of liking the first installment, if for no other reason than it was a reasonably entertaining couple of hours.

The sequel, however takes "suspension of disbelief" and throws it off a cliff. I would point out some of the plot holes, but I'm still trying to figure out if there ever really was a plot in the first place. Sure the CGI graphics were interesting, but what's the point?

There were what, a quarter million or so members of the 'Medjai' in that valley scene just waiting to go up against the Scorpion King's unholy army? Just take a few riders on a ridge over looking a valley, and paint in CGI replicas until you run out of room in the frame.

Oh yeah, the DVD is also chock full of self-serving promo junk like stuff for the Scorpion King movie and some hokey-looking Universal Studios attraction. There's a commentary track, but I don't think I could stand to sit through it again.

And the upcoming "Scorpion King" looks even better.....

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: "The Mummy Returns", ...lets hope for the last time.
Review: If the script writers of this atrocity were more that twelve years old, I would be very surprised. I don't understand why these film makers take good ideas and turn them into STUPID movies. They spend a fortune on special effects, actor salaries and marketing, then they get lousy screenwriters. Why? This movie was an insult to my intelligence. They figure if they bombard you enough with effects and action that you will forget that there is no plot or character development. To add insult to injury they throw in some wise-cracking kid that isn't the least bit funny. In one scene this kid is face to face with Imhotep. This guy is menacing, loud and has a decomposing body. Does the kid act scared? No, of course not. He looks at this living corpse and tells him that "my dad is going to kick your @ss." Wow, that was really believable and funny. Not. Then you have the airship with jets on it. That was years before they had discovered jet power. Oh, and I love the scene where Brandon Frasier is out running the rising sun to get his kid into the ancient ruins before sunrise. He would only have to be running at 186,000 miles per second to do it. You never once get a sense of danger or that anyone of the inane characters will get even the slightest bit injured. All in all this movie is just another routine special effects festival with no substance.
