Good if you don't expect to be scared.

Rating: 10/10 (31 July 2000)

The original "Mummy" was definitely more scary than this 1999 update, but this version still makes a pretty good showing. Aside from the humor and rich special effects, the background story is well-explained and overall it's worth viewing. It's sort of a cross between Indiana Jones and the Elizabeth Peter Egyptology novels starring Emerson and Peabody.
