Summary: The Mummy Returns
Review: I enjoyed the movie very much although some of the computer bad guys were a bit over the top. The fact that Oded Fehr (Ardeth Bay)has more scenes helped alot. This film is entertaining and also answers many questions left over from the 1st film.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This movie Sucks!
Review: This was an absolutely horrible film. The plot was weak. The Scorpion King (The Rock) at the end of the film looked terrible, one of the worst modern uses of computer animation I have ever seen. Brendan Frasier continues to make bad choices in scripts as this film had not one stitch of redeemable acting in it. Granted this movie is highly ficticious, but the events that happen throughout the film are totally unbelievable even from a fantasy aspect.

I only hope a Mummy III never sees the light of day.

Summary: All show and no go. Heck even the show part is no good.
Review: Take one move, fill to the brim with horrid semi-intelligent quips and stupid jokes issued at inappropriate times, insert meaningless violence and women and oh yeah don't forget to throw in the token non white guy. Take all that and the blend it carefully with the real meat of your soon to be movie-namely special effects! That's right folks who needs a plot, acting, or anything else for that matter when you can have FX! Just throw the stupid public eye candy and they will pay to see the movie. Well sarcasm aside I hated this film, as you can probably tell. The movie had no plot to speak of, and all the blundering sins I mentioned above. Even if you liked the first one, DON'T watch this one. Trust me, consider not watching this movie to be your CIVIC duty. If you give these bozos money they will be encouraged to make another <thing> like this. Instead watch anything with a better plot, you know like an exercise video or something. <Please note departing sarcasm.>

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not as good as the original but...
Review: The Mummy Returns starts out very slow and a little disjointed, but picks up pace after about 25 minutes. This sequel doesn't shine as well as the original but it's a fun adventure ride nonetheless. The fight sequences and special effects are much better than the original. I'd recommend viewing it first before deciding if you wish to add it to your collection.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Should be 0 stars
Review: One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Random and pointless, yadda yadda. I have to wonder how anyone could like it. I sort of liked the first movie, so I figured this would be more of the same. Unfortunately I was oh-so wrong. If you're not absolutely sure you want to buy this movie, whatever you do, watch it before buying! That way you'll avoid feeling supremely ripped off when you realize the DVD you just bought is best used as an expensive coaster.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Purely Fantastic
Review: I found this to be a great and very interesting movie overall. (...) Brenden Fraser did an excellent job. I don't remember his name but theat guy that played Adabesi in Oz was on the movie. He is real funny. But as usual in just about every movie he's on, he has to die. The production itself was great. The fighting scenes rocked. Everybody did their parts well and in the end the whole product was lovely. (...)Imteop was a lot better in the first movie. Even though he proves to be OK here. the one thing I didn't like was when Imotep's gurl came up and stabbed the other gurl. How they did it was stupid. Those little guys in the forest seemed entertaining to me. The fight scene between Adabesi and Oded was pretty cool. Well, both of the times they encountered each other it was pretty good fight. All in all I found it to be entertaining and a great solid movie overall. And a "MUST GET" for the family.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Movie
Review: A little corny but good, I like the first one better! Gives preview of next years Scorpion King, also looks like a good movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Inferior sequel still an entertaining movie.
Review: Despite suffering from Rushed Sequel Syndrome, The Mummy Returns still manages to entertain in its own chaotically charming way. Stephen Sommers's screenplay barely manages to string together the exciting action setpieces in a coherent fashion, but you can just forget about character expansion or motivation. What the movie delivers is wall to wall sword fights and rampaging mummies mixed with a good natured humor that does not irritate the viewer (a truly welcome talent that Sommers appears to be graced with). Only viewers expecting more than a simple thrill ride entertainment will be disappointed, but then why would you be watching this movie in the first place? Recommended Saturday matinee fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great movie and great to own on DVD
Review: I thought this movie was great and the best way to view all of the special effects and action (other than at the theater) is on DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Mummy Returns
Review: This movie contains all of the ingredients that made the first so good! I was laughing throughout at the non-stop action and the constant stream of jokes/quips. Most entertaining ...
If I was to put my serious hat on I would say that the last fight scene would have been better with The Rock 'in person' rather than a silly computer animated scorpian (more realistic). Also I didn't like the fact that the Mummy's 'other-half' deserts him at the end (seems a bit strange after already sacrificing her life for him the first time ...)

Anyways, I enjoyed it!
