Awesome film. Couldn't have loved it more.

Rating: Null/10 (12 October 2003)

I felt that they reached more of an audience with The Mummy Returns. They had the love from the marriage and then a little boy who is innocent and then the bad guys and the sword fights and all of that. I enjoyed it much more than the first one. The first one revolved around all of the freaky bugs that get under your skin and eat you alive. Its nasty. On the other hand however, in this film, you have fewer bugs which is good, and more sword play which was amazing. I like the part where after Rick throws the snake at the one guy and then another guy throws a knife at him. I love how he catches it and throws it back. Its sweet. I feel that when working in temps of 130*F +, that the actors did spectacular. The only thing they could have done better was the scene where Evelyn dies. She fell forward and then went back and should have been laying really weird but she ended up laying flat. That could have been for Rachel's comfort but honestly. But when she was stabbed the shock in her eyes and the pain and almost horror was really good. And her final words were done really well with the few last breaths in between. Amazing work. Honestly. They did a good job captivating the people who like love stories, and the people who like the fight scenes and the history buffs, and the people who feel for children, and the animal lovers (HORACE!! I LOVED HORACE!!), and everyone in between or that likes all of the above (like me). Overall, I thought it was well thought out and very moving and also very accurate to the language and such. Amazing! I give the movie 13 stars on a 10 star scale!!
