 | For guys...and by that I mean men (who are stronger sex).
Women mabee should pass it up and watch STUPID PC ROMANTIC MOVIES...OR BETTER DISNEY!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a good indiana jones-like mummy adaption. Save money by buying it with Tremors...but not Lilo and Stitch or related crap. |

| This is a good adventure movie, meant to emulate the old movie serials. It's a fun ride that always has something happening, lots of physical action broken up with little bits of dialogue and plotting. It's exactly what it sets out to be.
The special effects are very cool, particularly the mummy in his various stages of undeath. The characters, while simple, are all well-drawn and engaging. Even the mummy's stooge has a lot of personality and, aided by a nice performance, is never as flat as he could've easily been. And the story is interesting without getting too complicated and ruining the pacing with endless scenes of exposition.
I watch this film every couple of months, and I can say I enjoy it every time. The sequel is pretty good too. If you like monsters, magic, and a lot of larger than life action, this is a film I'd highly recommend. |

| This would have to be one of my favourite Horror movies. It stars Brendan Fraser in a role reminiscent of Harrison Ford in the Indian Jones Movies but this movie is set in Egypt where an Ancient Mummy has returned to life and must be distroyed. Brendan is joined in his hunt by the beautiful Rachel Weisz with a very sexy English accent. I only wish the my local Librarian looked as good as her. A thrilling chase, a few unexpecte twists and the good guys put up one hell of a fight? Movie entertainment at it's best!!! |

| The Mummy is a decent flick that really does alow the viewer to have a good time watching it. I would like to state that it is not horror as the title would suggest. Purly action and adventure.
I got this movie as a gift a few years back, but to be honest, I wouldn't have bought it otherwise. It's a good one-time movie, to rent for example, but I wouldn't suggest it for anything long term, such as actual purchase (unless you really like it).
The plot is fairly strong, but also fairly typical. I would still recommend it though. Great special effects too. I would also say that it is better than it's sequel, The Mummy Returns.
