Predictable; though worthwhile

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 1999)

The first sequence in the film, in ancient Egypt is riveting. Also the first visit to the tombs kept my date and I in a delightful apprehension. If the first part wasn't so first rate perhaps the ending, predictable and overly done with special-effects, wouldn't have been as disappointing. My thoughts on leaving "When will hollywood realize.. Less is More!" Still time worth spending.
