Summary: If you are of high intelligence you will enjoy this flick
Review: Unlike many bore a minute flicks we all seem to see lately...i'll name no names. The Mummy Returns is a brilliant and well scripted movie. When i saw this in theaters i was blown away! I am devout fan of The Mummy but truthfully The Mummy Returns is even better! There was never a part in the movie were i was bored straight out of my mind. The action is phenomenal and even better they have a well thought out script to accompany it. The part i enjoyed the most was there wasn't a scene i wished would hurry up and move along. The dry wit they used is so refreshing from the "typical" slap stick comedy that most movies rely heavily on to keep you interested. If you don't enjoy this film...my deepest sympathies, go catch the latest clichéd gross out comedy at the movies theater.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Fun
Review: The Mummy Returns was a good clean fun movie for just about everyone. While it didn't have the same tentializing plot that the original (which I just adored), it is worth watching on it's own marits. Branden Fraser returns as the very heroic Rick, who has grown up some and but still every bit the man he was when we last saw him. Evee is still in search of knowledge but this movie twists her character a bit and it was a little harder to swallow. But it was still good to see her kicking butt. Oded Feir finally gets some plot and good lines in there that totally rocks. His mysterious character is just so good to watch in action. John Hannah is as funny as ever as the wonderful Jonathan, who has a heart of gold when it comes to his family....and money. Arnold Vosloo and Patricia Velasques rocked as the villians. The Rock was hardly there, which was fine but the ending with his face computer generated on was just pathetic. Word of advise to the studio, next time, take a little more time to clean things up before the release, even if you have to push back the date. Good movie all around.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Mummy Returns.
Review: Great Movie Cast and Crew were great! Especially Brendan Frasier good guy I met him once. I heard the news a Mummy 3 is in the mix. No not The Scorpion King (April 2002),but a 3 Mummy sequel to Mummy Returns. Brendan Fraser will be in it. Any other cast I don't know I at least look forward to a 2003 Mummy 3. ...

Summary: why have good features for such a bad movie?
Review: i cant believe they're wasting their efforts on such a horrible movie. the first one was not very good either, and they had an ultimate edition 2 disc DVD for it. A movie is supposed to be good for there to be a 2 disc set. this movie was so cheesy.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Chock full of dumb
Review: The Mummy was a dumb movie, but it was a big, fun dumb movie. It managed to weave a bunch of old movie cliches together in a novel way and package it with some fun performances and neat special effects. The Mummy Returns is a dumb movie, but it's not fun, it's just dumb. You can pull something like The Mummy off once, but forget about trying any sequels. Summary: AVOID

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Overdone but still entertaining
Review: Energetic cast from Stephen Sommer's 1999 original returns completely intact with the new addition of Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz's son. Taking place a few years after the original adventure, this episode finds our heroes taking on the vicious Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) once again, plus the added threat of the reincarnation of his eternal love Anuksunamun (Patricia Velasquez, whose extended role reveals a shaky and moderately-talented actress). The two groups are racing against time to be present at the reawakening of the centuries-dead Scorpion King (WWF Champ The Rock), who will raise up his army and take over the world with his evil powers. The adventerous scenes are even more plentiful than they were in the original, though thankfully Sommers' direction isn't as heavy-handed as it was the first time around, thanks mostly to much better production design and a lighter score by Alan Silvestri. The film's only drawback is an overemphasis on computer-generated images that after a while start to feel a little awkward. Weisz is even more charming this time around than she was the last time, plus now she can fight like no martial arts champion can.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Mummy Returns... let him in!
Review: Despite some poor techinical reviews, this movie is exactly what it tries to be... a little scary and a lot of fun. Though the final scenes depict a rather silly looking evil entity, the movie is very entertaining. For those who enjoyed The Mummy for what it was.... lots of humorous dialogue and special effects (not to mention a good looking hero!) then you will not be disappointed. Okay, so it is not a award contender... but it is fun to watch!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: what a toptastic movie
Review: For all of you people who have not seen this movie then shame on you.This is possibly the best movie of the last 10 years (yes i know i have just angered all you star wars fans but please let me finish).The original left you thinking that there would be a sequel and they did'nt dissapoint us with this.The cast were very good because they never changed any of the original characters and it went along on a variable joyride of thrills and spills.This movie has something for everyone and is no doubt the platform for bigger things for world wrestling federation star The Rock who was only in there a short while and was very good at hamming up his role as the scorpion king.All in all a great film with laughs,scares.thrills and spills a definate classic.Ronnie Birmingham England.

Summary: What's wrong with you people?!
Review: THE MUMMY RETURNS is exactly what a good quality sequel should be! It's what we true movie goers have been waiting for: action-packed with thrills and chills, lots of laid-back comedy, superb fighting sceens, drama, and even romance all rolled together into one! This film has got some of the best computerized special effects since TITANIC. Everything fits perfectly. So what if there is no really good chemistry between the characters? We're not really here to watch the characters, anyway. We want ACTION. We want THRILLS. We want CHILLS. We want COMEDY. We want ADVENTURE! So what if the plot isn't the best in the world? Not many are these days...but we still find 'em enjoyable.

The cast does a great job - Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, The Rock, Freddie Booth, John Hannah, Arnold Valsoo, Oded Fehr, Patricia Velezquez, as well as the rest of the cast. A lot of the characters you'll remember from the first film, THE MUMMY (1999). But some of them are new characters who were not in the first film. It's more thrilling and exciting then the first. I went to see this film opening weekend with my best friend and we both loved it. I can't wait to get my laptop computer with a DVD player for college next year. When I do, THE MUMMY RETURNS and THE MUMMY are going to be the first two DVDs I plan to buy! This is a must-see and a must-own on DVD. There are lots of special features for the DVD, too and this is totally worth your money. Don't listen to those negative reviewers - they don't know anything about good action films!
