The Mummy

THE SANDS WILL RISE. THE HEAVENS WILL PART. THE POWER WILL BE UNLEASHED.

Dashing legionnaire Rick O'Connell stumbles upon the hidden ruins of Hamunaptra while in the midst of a battle to claim the area in 1920s Egypt. It has been over three thousand years since former High Priest Imhotep suffered a fate worse than death as a punishment for a forbidden love—along with a curse that guarantees eternal doom upon the world if he is ever awoken.

Reviews:

  • Kobe Pollard
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.
    Rating: 2.5

  • Adelyn Stokes
    Too much focus on special effects and not enough on the story. It felt like a missed opportunity.
    Rating: 2.5

    A solid, enjoyable film. The performances were good, though it didn't really break new ground.

  • Kelvin Wiley
    The plot was full of holes, and the acting felt forced. I had higher expectations.

    The perfect blend of action, humor, and heart. One of the best movies I've seen in years.
