Summary: The Sequal
Review: This movie will blow you out of the theater. The best sequal I have ever seen. I have seen a lot of sequals that shouldn't have ever seen the light of day. All I have to say is, if you haven't seen it you're missing out on the best movie of the year. The special fx on this movie is great. The plot is awsome. The characters even better. This is a must own movie. Go now and buy it today. (So what if it doesn't come out until October.) Pre-order it today.

Summary: Good Movie - but not as good as the first......
Review: Ok- first of all they could have casted the The Rock better in this. Overall a decent movie. Brendan Fraser returns and does a great job....special effects were brilliant.

Summary: More Action, More Fun
Review: I think that many people are trying to hard to be so much the critic about this movie. It wasn't the best ever made, but it's not like I went to the theatre expecting it to blow me away. It provided lots of action with the nice mix of comic relief to give the end result of a movie that I thought was worth the money.

Summary: A high point of adventure in a dismal summer movie season
Review: Granted that this sequel lags behind the first installment of the series, it is by far superior to anything that followed this summer. In a season of mega CGI "blockbusters", here was one with likable and interesting stars and a pace and level of excitement that was breathtaking. Brendan Frasier and Rachel Weisz come close to being the new "Indiana and Marion", indeed it would have been a fantastic casting coup to cast him as Indiana Jones III in the final Harrison Ford flix supposed to be in planning. Imagine Ford, Connery and Fraser as the Jones Boys! The two Mummys make a nice matched set and a good way to spend a rainy afternoon or a late nite with friends.

Summary: It was the bomb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: The Mummy Returns was better than the The Mummy. It had more action and romanice than any other action movie that I had ever seen.

Summary: One of the biggest letdowns in cinematic history
Review: I'll preface this by saying that I loved the first Mummy. A great combination of humor, action and special effects mixed with great character acting by every one of the leads brought back the feel of Indiana Jones.So of course, I went to The Mummy Returns hoping to catch another glimpse of what I consider to be the best humor/action movie in the past 5 years. I was sorely disappointed. Essentially, they took everything from the original and rehashed it in the sequel. They cracked almost every good joke from the first movie in the second, a repititious affair that went from slightly painful to excruciating within the first 20 minutes of the film. Combine that with the removal of a central, cohesive plot to be replaced with no less than 5 weakly connected subplots. Plot 1 - the Scorpion King. Sold his soul to Annubis and awakes every 5000 years. Plot 2 - Reincarnation of Anck-Su-Namun (sp) she's back in modern form and helps locate the remains of the mummy. Plot 3 - Reincarnation of Eve. That's right, she's a reincarnation too, the daughter of the pharoah killed in the first movie. Plot 4 - Guess what? Brenden Frasier's a supreme warrior! Yep, he was left at an orphanage (weak!) and has a tatoo on his forearm that means he's a magi warrior. Plot 5 - Resurrection of the mummy - yep, he's back again. So, the evil people use the new Anck-Su-Namun to locate the remains of the mummy, bring him back to life, and then want to use him to kill the scorpion king and take control of his army of warriors. There's only one weapon that can kill him, and it happens to be in Jonathan's possession (wow that's nice!). In the meantime, Evelyn is plagued by dreams of her past life and somehow starts to become this massive warrior woman. Oded Fehr is back as the magi warrior who spends the entire movie telling Brenden's character that he's "the one". Is anyone else lost yet? I am, and I'm the one writing the review! Basically, what is left is a sequel destroyed by overkill. Instead of sticking to the formula that made the original so good (straightforward plot, solid bad guy, good mix of humor and action), they went one step too far and tried to do too much (splintered plot, bad character development, very weak, rehashed humor). The idea of two bad guys could have been great, but the mummy is barely seen during the movie (and when he is you wonder if a 4 year old wrote his part) and the scorpion king is an absolutely atrocious piece of CGI (tip: if you're going to make a CGI bad guy, then don't show him as a real live person beforehand, because you'll never get the likeness right). A great franchise driven completely into the ground and destroyed. Maybe they won't make the same mistake for The Scorpion King, but don't bet on it. Once again proof that to be allowed to make a sequel for a hit movie, you MUST have a review committee of normal people watch you so they can tell you when "you've gone too far!!!".

Summary: Action-packed Entertainment - a True Sequel
Review: I tend to rate a movie on it's 'see again' factor - I'd watch this one again and again... I've rarely seen a sequel that follows on so beautifully from where the original left off. It's 10 years later and the O'Connells have a son, Alex, who has a relentless tendency to get into trouble - kind of like his mother, really. Okay, so there are a few 'seen-it, 'been there, done that' moments, but despite this, "The Mummy Returns" manages to pack in the action and keep your eyes glued to the screen. Best points: the story behind the murder of Pharaoh Seti I in the first movie involving Evy, Imhotep and Anck Su Namun - nice follow on there; the FANTASTIC battle between Anubis's army and the Medjai in the desert - great SFX! And the moment of Anck Su Namun betrayal - one of those rare times your heart goes out to the bad guy. Most importantly, the movie is about FUN. Yes, there are things that defy reality, the plot isn't water-tight or rock-steady - so what? It's an action-packed, entertaining, SCI-FI movie with memorable characters, great actors that makes brilliant use of special effects and doesn't take itself too seriously. What more could a die-hard movie buff ask for?

Summary: What a dissapointment
Review: I'm a big fan of the mummy so I expected that the mummy returns should be even better. What a misstake. The mummy return had no indiana jones spirit, and was know as witty as the first one. Rent it do know buy it inly if you like to see brendan and 101 animations.. :-(( Predictable movie

Summary: That was a sequal?
Review: I do have to admit that I enjoyed the first Mummy very much, but I was extremely disappointed in this sequal. It almost completely changes the character development from the first one and the special effects will have you rolling in the isles (quite frankly, I could have done better with an action figure and my home video camera.) Worth seeing once, but there was nothing original about this movie.
