An entertaining film, but not a outstanding one

Rating: Null/10 (24 July 1999)

Well, I liked the film.
It has a lot of actions scenes, the FX's were very good, and there is a plot, simple, but a plot in the end. Many of the things that I saw in "The Mummy" I've seen on other films --Indiana Jones trilogy comes to my mind--. The film is packed with action but almost all of the FX's I wanted to see, I've already seen on the trailer of this movie, so I feel cheated a little. The villain of the movie, was very scary at the beginning but while he was gaining organs and flesh from other humans he was getting less scary. I liked the final battle of Brendan Fraser against the troops of the Mummy, it made me remember that old classic movie "Jason & The Argonauts". I liked the two scenes with the cat too. The dialogues when the characters are not in an action scene lacked of a sense of realism, and those were the boring sections of th film. I think Brendan is developing into a more mature actor, and hoping to see more about him in the future.
All in all not a film for all people, those who watch a film to get answers about life, surely will hate this film, but if you like no more than be entertained for a while then you can
