Extremely entertaining and fun

Rating: Null/10 (4 January 2003)

This is one of my favorite movies, I wish Hollywood would do more movies like this with incredible settings, great visuals, everything about it is simply breathtaking. I've seen it several times now and it's always entertaining, it's just a great adventure.
It's hard to put the movie into words, it's just a great combination of breathtaking settings, great special effects, great action & comedy, very likable characters, great story. It's a very balanced movie, it can sometimes be very funny but also sometimes scary and dark, it's just pure FUN. :)
Anyways if you like adventures like for example the Jurassic Park or the Indiana Jones movies then this one is definitely for you. It just saddens me that they don't make many similar movies because these types of fun adventures (that are actually good) are very rare. I've seen the sequel and although it is a good effort, it simply can't compare to this original movie. With the sequel I thought they focused more on the special effects, but this one has a lot of heart.
Anyways I recommend The Mummy to everybody who likes a perfect adventure pop corn movie. :)
