Remake is fun, but not scary

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 1999)

Unlike the 1932 "Mummy," this so-called remake takes a different turn by wandering into "Indian Jones" territory. Don't expect any chills and suspense as in the original. Instead, there's humor and visual effects. Brendan Fraser plays an offbeat treasure hunter, along with his companions, has accidently awaken the Egyptian priest (Arnold Vosloo). If you're a fan of the "Indian Jones" trilogy, you're likely to enjoy this fun remake. My evaluation: **1/2 out of ****.
