So 90's

Rating: Null/10 (17 June 1999)

This is yet another movie in the style that has become so popular in the second half of the 90's. Lots and lots of expensive special effects and no big names in any of the leading roles. Just like "Independence Day", "Starship Troopers", "Jurassic Park", "Stargate", etc. Movies you have to watch on a big screen with massive THX sound. If you like this style, you'll like The Mummy. If not, don't bother watching this movie. "The Mummy" is funny, fast and over the top. I's not really scary, but then, I don't think it was meant that way. The story is OK, but why the mummy uses biblical plagues in stead of other terrors is beyond me. But they look cool! And the half decayed mummy itself is the most realistic living deadguy I have ever seen.
