Where's Indiana Jones When We Need Him?

Rating: 5/10 (27 November 1999)

The computer-generated visuals of thriving ancient Egyptian cities are breathtaking. The action is non-stop. The storyline is even pretty good. But Brendan Fraser, the leading man, injects a brand of slapstick humor that gets rather tiresome after a while.
The Mummy would have been a better movie if the hero were "Indiana Jones" rather than "George of the Jungle", and if it were, perhaps, a bit less campy.
The exceptional visuals make it worth the price, however.
