After seeing the first blockbuster, The
Mummy, you should know exactly what you're getting into.
It's loaded with action, special effects, and supernatural things
throwing things at you all the time.
With not much thought on storyline and
characters, it doesn't need to justify itself because it's just
a lot of fun.
So turn off your brain, eat some popcorn
and enjoy. |
As sequels go, this one has everything
you've come to expect--louder, bigger, and dumber.
But if you're looking for intelligent storytelling,
you've come to the wrong place. The Mummy Returns all
right, but with so many special effects that it's an out-and-out
assault to the senses.
The more is better idea is still fun
however,
same cast plus more brass equals less class (But more cash!). |
The Mummy Returns
is a puffed-up, bloated sequel that sinks under a very cluttered
plot.
The film gets so twisted that four things
are happening in four places at the same time--two fights, a
battle, and raise the dead back to life.
The movie gives you too much action, too
much special effects, and I think it needed to slow down long
enough to show a human face more than once in a while.
In two words, The Mummy is overblown
violence. |
