Summary: A little hokey, but...
Review: I loved The Mummy, and I love The Mummy Returns. It is as entertaining as the first, with more action and more wonderful places. Anck-Su-Namun and Imhotep's story is described further, as well as some other interesting things about the O'Connells. There are some nice extras on the DVD, so if you liked the first one, your sure to like this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Thrills Return
Review: "The Mummy Returns" is a great film to watch, especially on DVD because of its great script, wonderful plot, great actors and a great director. "The Mummy" was an instant cinema classic because of its orginality even though it was a remake of "The Mummy" made back in the 60s. Brendan Fraser leads a great cast yet again in this wonderfully scripted sequel. Stephen Sommers puts this sequel together beautifully with returning Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) and Anuk-sun-amun (Patricia Velasquez). Of course, Fraser returns at Rick O'Connell. After nine years, Rick is now married to Evelyn (Rachel Weisz)and they have a 8-year-old son (Freddie Boath) who gets into a lot of trouble. Then, you have Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as The Scorpion King. That was a great move because they are making a "Scorpion King" movie which blasts into theaters next summer. Finally, you have Evelyn's brother, Jonathan (John Hannah) and the warrioir Ardeth Bay (Oded Fehr). With this cast and director, there are no limits. "The Mummy Returns" is a great movie and an excellent sequel. The box office proves it. This is a 200 million dollar blockbuster so you definently know that the thrills return.

Summary: what can i say its absoloutely fantastic
Review: well i must say i have never seen such an amazing film. there isnt a word to describe how absoloutely fantastic it is. i must be the biggest fan in the world of this film (the mummy returns). after i had watched this film my chin felt like it was going to drop right down to the floor this is due to the fact that i couldnt believe what i had just watched. i have seen this film 6 times at the movies so far. the story line is amazing and as the effects well what can i say they're absoloutely amazing. it is my favourite film in the whole world as u can probably see by my review of the film. the actors and actresses in this film are all extremely fantastic especially rachel weisz and brendan frasier(what a stud)rachel weisz looks so pretty in that film its a joke. i dont know what his name is but in the film alex the little boy in the film is also a superb actor especially for his age. i dont know what else i could possibly say i think this review sums it all up its absoloutely fantastic exciting adventures brilliant etc. a must see film. i just cant wait untill it comes on video il buy it the second it gets transported into a shop. written by michelle garner (age=14) from birmingham England

Summary: Better Than The First!!
Review: I saw this movie 4 time because of one thing, THE FIGHT SEENS!!! The sword fight seens are ok but The sai fight seens are unbleviable. I have learned Martial Arts for 7 years and the the actresses looked as good as me. See this movie of you like Martial Arts.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Fun to watch. I hate it.
Review: I probably shouldn't be such a hypocrite, seeing as how I did go to see this twice in the theaters. But I absolutely hate everything about this movie, aside from the action scenes and special FX. The plot development consists of a two-three minute long scene where we have one of those cheap prologues, and then we see The Rock try to act (I think the producers were wise when they decided to have him just growl instead). And after that, there is a two-three minute long character development scene, where we learn that Evelyn and Rick had a son. And he's mischevious. Okay, now that all of that stuff is out of the way, let's just throw in some mummies and some action scenes! Yeah! The rest of the movie is a mix of cheap jokes (But I still chuckled... why?), pretty effects, fist fights, sword fights, and all that junk. And then, just to be clever, they threw in this poorly-constructed story twist involving reincarnation. What results is an incredibly fun movie that I hate to hate. It's just the kind of thing you should watch when you don't feel like seeing anything mentally heavy, or when you're with some friends and just feel like seeing things blow up. It's perfect for people with short attention spans, or for people who like to relax by seeing something totally devoid of intelligence for an hour and a half. This creates a dilemma. I do hate it, but I can't resist it's mind-numbing eye candy. I'm sure anybody else who loves plot and developed characters will agree. Rent it. Don't buy it. It's not the kind of thing you'd really watch over and over again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: So glad the Mummy returned!!!
Review: I very much enjoyed 'The Mummy', but I enjoyed "The Mummy Returns' even more! This movie has more action, more humor and more suspense than the first one did.

Also, I saw this in the movie theatre with my friend and we had so much fun. Seeing it on the big screen is a real thrill! We laughed uproariously, sat on the edge of our seats and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves watching the action.

The effects were totally amazing and much of the dialogue was hysterically funny. I totally recommend watching this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Mummy Returns is arguably the greatest movie of all time
Review: I just love The Mummy Returns.Its so perfect.There are love scenes,non stop action,the best visual effects and one of the best things I like about TMR is that the entire cast is back.Its like you know these people.The presence of WWF/WCW champion The Rock as The Scorpion King is a great welcome and seeing Alun Armstroing as the Curator is really neat.I just adore TMR,it was MY most anticapated movie and I`M glad its here!I bought Alan Silvestri`s score from Amazon and it is the most impressive music a person will ever hear!By the way,Silvestri`s music matches perfectly in every scene in The Mummy Returns!

Rating: 5 stars

spectacular specal effects in this huge lavish sequel .

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing Fun
Review: Let's wake up the dead again. There's revenge. There's power. And boy does the Mummy travel. The chemistry between Fraser and the Mummy is as fun as ever; throw in the Scorpian King and things heat up. Amazing visual effects and the story unfolds rather nicely. This movie is more witty than the first one, and O'Donnell's son adds some clever scenes in the movie. See it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's good. It's a sequel...
Review: "Thumbs Up!"

The Mummy Returns is of course the sequel to the surprise hit The Mummy. Basically, the entire cast of the first film, that didn't die- are back. The story was better than average, the special effects were the best we've seen this summer, the acting and humor mixed well and the adventure never lets up. Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisez are a great couple. Freddie Boath, Jonathan Hyde, Arnold Vosolo, Odeh Fehr and Patricia Valasquez were all magnificant as well. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson was a big disappointment being he was in the film maybe two minutes total. Also, the computer animation of The Scorpion King was a joke, but everything else rises on all bars. The Mummy Returns is great fun, especially for a sequel.
