Not very original!

Rating: 5/10 (22 July 2001)

I'm always wary of films where I can pick holes early on, and I was right to be wary of this one. I saw 'The Mummy' and enjoyed it, even though it was horribly inaccurate about Egypt (ancient and modern). This film just took 'The Mummy' and did it over again. Many of the special effects, although exciting, had been used in the first film. It's as if the production team decided to use them over again to save money. The dialogue was sometimes unintentionally funny, the acting was mediocre at best and there didn't seem to be an original idea in the whole film. Not a film I'll be adding to my video collection when it comes out!
