An awesome adventure flick

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2009)

The Mummy is not an Oscar worthy film, but it is a great one at that. The Mummy is a remake of the 1932 original( also produced by Universal studios) the original Mummy stared Boris Karloff as Imhotep, but the difference between the original and the remake is that the story and some of the character's are different but the the mummy remains the same, all be it the visual effects are much better now then they were then but the basic plot of both the movies mostly remain the same. The Mummy stars Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, John Hannah as a group of Egyptologist searching for an ancient city lost beneath the sand a century ago. without warning or regrade for what they have done they released a 3,000 year old mummy for his grave. Now them and a group of ancient warriors have to stop Imhotep from engulfing the world in total darkness for all time. The mummy is a completely engrossing horror thriller with some of the best visual effect ever seen, it's one of those film you'll be watching over and over again. And it will never get old no matter how many times you watch it.
