A fun romp - The Mummy Reviews

OK, it's a movie about mummies (one bad dude in particular) that has alot of shooting, witty dialogue, and cool effects. It seems pretty run-of-the mill and some would say lacking in creativity. Au contraire! This movie is anything but. Yes, it has all of those afore metioned components, but they all add up something unique and fun. It has characters that are entertaining and effective. Brendan Fraser is at his best and shows that he can hang with the best action heroes out there. This was also the first movie I saw with Rachel Weisz, and I must admit that she captivated me as Evelyn. The Mummy himself was amazing and tough, and although the movie would not be considered a horror movie (in my definition at least), it did have enough suspense to keep the heart racing. Outstanding effects, fun performances, and plenty of humour, this movie is perfect for a good time for any occaission.
