Watch The Mummy For Free

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

The Mummy is one of the most interesting series among fantasy. This gives an insight into the world of Mummy and the dark forces. The magic spells; the dark magic and other evils are terrifying. The chemistry of Richard and Evelyn is interesting. Overall fun to watch

The mummy is a 1999 film starring Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz and John Hannah and tells the tale of an Egyptian prince who turns into a mummy and seeks revenge by sucking the life out of humans in order to retain his youth. It's up to a beautiful librarian named Evylnn played by Rachel Weisz,aher brother played by John Hannah and an archalogist named Rick O Connell played by Brendan Fraser they must try and seek the treasure and defeat the mummy who wants Evylnn as his bride. With good special effects, great cast,and a good score this is A lot better than the Tom Cruise one which came out last year.

An incredible film that manages to outdo the 1932 Boris Karloff classic. It is pretty gory by my standards, as The Mummy rebuilds his body piece-by-piece and organ-by organ. Then there is the outstanding "early" unforgettable CGI such as The Mummy "howling" during a sandstorm of his own creation. They "sort-of" copy this for the new version. More plagues than even Moses had in his "bag of tricks". Finally, it settles down into a very decent swashbuckling Indiana Jones "knock-off-type" movie with no apologies for stealing that premise. Great and necessary female "sidekick". I actually enjoyed "The Mummy Returns" sequel far more as it is not as gory. The first entry is not for the squeamish. Almost a classic and I don't see the need for a reboot in 2017 by anybody. I feel like watching it right now as it is 98 degrees outside and that's just about right for a Lazy Summer Popcorn Movie! I expect I will eventually see the "new" version as well, as it looks pretty-good from the previews.

The classic monster was brought back to life at the end of the millennium for a silly and fun adventure film directed by Stephen Sommers. A prologue narrated by the Magi leader Ardeth Bay (Oded Fehr) introduces the priest Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) who fell in love with the Pharoah's mistress Anck Su Namun (Patricia Velasquez) and was entombed and cursed. Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) is a soldier who finds the lost City of the Dead, Hamunaptra. He is allowed to escape by the Magi who watch the city so that the mummy is never resurrected. Three years later, Evelyn Carnahan (Rachel Weisz) works at a library in Cairo thanks to a donation from her wealthy, deceased parents when her brother Jonathan (John Hannah) brings her a map in a puzzle box.Evelyn saves Rick from execution in a prison run by Warden Gad Hassan (Omid Djalili) who is promised a percentage of the treasure in Hamunaptra. They set out a journey up the Nile accompanied by another crew of Americans led by O'Connell's fellow soldier and betrayer Beni (Kevin J. O'Connor). The two groups dig in separate parts of the period. Gad Hassan discovers the scarab beetles and suffers a terrible fate. The group of Americans uncover the Book of the Dead and collect the organ of Imhotep. Rick, Evelyn, and Jonathan discover the juicy corpse of Imhotep. Evelyn steals the Book of the Dead from Dr. Allen Chamberlain (Jonathan Hyde) and reads the words awaking the mummy. A plague of locusts descends on the camp.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com
