Mummified

Rating: 6/10 (4 October 1999)

The good news is that, as escapist entertainment, this is similar to the Indiana Jones series - extremely fast paced and full of special effects.
The bad news? The ancient Egypt is portrays is an unimaginative fantasy written by people with no interest or knowledge of history for people with similar ignorance. Only the greedy plundering of the treasures by 1920s ersatz archeologists is halfway accurate.
The ending is lifted from an old movie called Land of the Pharohs.

This is not a remake, as it bears little similarity to the Boris Karloff classic.
