This is a fun movie. Archeologist and adventurer Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) is about to be hanged "For having a VERY good time". Evie (Rachel Wiesz), is an Egyptologist and librarian who has come across an ancient map showing the location of Hamunaptra, the ancient city of the dead. For saving O'Connell's life, he has agreed to show her where it is. Upon arriving, along with a competing team of American treasure hunters, everything goes crazy when they discover the mummy of Imhotep. He had suffered the Hyumdai, by being buried alive for indiscretion with Pharaoh's wife. If resurrected, he would return as a scourge on the land. While reading an inscription from the "Book of the Dead", Evie unintentionally restores Imhotep. The rest of the movie is consumed with trying to send him back. This is an action packed film and has moments that are funny. The characters of "Benny", a small time crook, and Evie's brother who is a well-intentioned scoundrel are funny, and of course there is Evie (Rachel Weisz), she's a doll!Read full review
This is one of the Great Mummy movies.. don't miss it. However, "Widescreen" was a passing phase.. Full Screen is what I wanted and willing to pay "more" for. I don't feel I got my money's worth.. this difference is not often clear in the Ad. I think Hollywood does that on purpose... In spite of that disappointment..the Mummy is still awesome! Brenden Fraser and Rachael Weiss at their best.. ya' gotta love that character Benny too. The Mummy transforms the old Boris Karloff monster into a true threat in classic fashion. If ya' love monsters.. don't miss this one. If you find a FULL SCREEN edition... let me know.
