woefully under-rated (A MAJOR SPOLIER!)

Rating: 10/10 (22 February 2002)

After I saw this Movie, I was shocked to see all the bad reviews that it got, such as the sayings that it had "bad acting" or "shallow characters" and "no plot".
I thought this movie was great! Easily the best movie I saw all summer! if you want shallow plots, watch "Jurrasic Park III" which will give you 2 hours of people screaming and running from Dinosaurs.
On the other hand, If you want a story with heart-pounding action, Romance, and suspense, and above all-emotion, than watch the Mummy Returns.
This movie drew me in right from the start. for instance, I just love to hate anck-su-namun/meela, (SPOILER!!!) I felt for rick when he (temporarily) lost his wife, and I actually stood up and cheered at the ending.
and second, I thought this Movie was MUCH better than the first. I Like how they advance the characters in this story, mainly with Ardeth Bay and Evelyn. Plus, the addition of the action will have your heart pounding! the first one did drag on a bit; in fact, the story didn't really pick up until halfway into the movie, and the ending was a little unsatifactory. Not the case here!
so please. give this movie a chance and ingore all the complaints of "bad acting" "shallow characters" and "no plot". because i didn't find any of those flaws here.
this was THE movie of summer 2001. no other movie even came close.
