A Tongue in Cheek Adventure.

Rating: Null/10 (4 February 2002)

Brendan Fraser is one of my many favorite actors. In The Mummy he plays the hero Rick O'Connell. It's the story about a sarcophogus that's accidently released and wreaks havoc until it captures a librarian (Rachel Weisz) to make him invincible. I really enjoyed this movie because of the action, suspense, romance, and it's over the top humor. The Mummy has something in it for anyone to enjoy.
It's no wonder this movie was popular during it's theatrical release. The lead female character was actually smart and tough. The antagonist Beni and the girl's older brother (John Hanna) were wimps! Brendan Fraser sure has come a lot way since "Encino Man". I also liked some of his other movies, too and I'll see the sequel when I get the chance. In conclusion The Mummy is a very captivating and enjoyable movie. Catch it if you can! I hope to see more of Brendan Fraser's work in the future.
