Simply the Best!

Rating: 10/10 (6 February 2002)

This is my absolute favorite movie! I first watched it at a friends house last year. It was a few weeks ago I saw it again. It was a Friday night and my younger sister and I were flipping through the channels when I noticed the scene where Rick (Brendan Frasier) and Beni (Kevin J. O'Connor) are about to open fire on the approaching horsemen. I told her to hold on and explained what movie it was. Since then, I've seen it seven times on the same channel.
My male cousin enjoyed it for the action (there's some form of a lethal weapon in nearly every scene!). My sister liked it for the comedy. I myself liked everything about it; ancient Egypt has always held my interest.
It was a good movie. All the characters seemed to be given to the appropriate people.
Just one thing: why did Beni say, "Nice camel," when he himself was riding one? It doesn't make the show any worse, but that didn't make sense. I guess it's because they wanted Beni to fall off the camel, and I doubt Rick could've reached him if he was riding a horse. (should've cut the comment then, huh?)
Over all, it was great, and I don't see why so many people were complaining about the jokes. Lighten up a bit, people!
