The first of what's sure to be a Triple Threat.

Rating: Null/10 (7 May 2001)

More exciting,and entertaining than the first one.It's as if the original was a mere warm-up,an opportunity for the creative talent involved to find there legs.Well,they outdid themselves with this true rollercoaster ride that basically thrills at every turn.I love art-house films,but if you are going to do action,you best put some effort,and genuine inspiration behind it,and that's what this film does.It's not trying to be historically accurate,or Hitchcock you into oblivion with unexpected plot twists(although there are a couple of minor ones),they just want to take you on a dazzling special effects ride for your hard earned duckets,and that money will be well spent.With Gorgeous locales,Beautiful and dangerous Women,Men acting like Men(Brendan Fraser is perfect for this role),and some of the most powerful and exillirating action sequences ever filmed,"The Mummy Returns" comes highly recommended.I'm anxiously awaiting "Final Fantasy",and "Jurassic Park 3".Those two films better be on their game,because The Mummy has just raised the bar for pure action.
