Better than the original

Rating: 7/10 (5 July 2001)

Usually I consider sequels to be inferior to their original predecessors, but I must say that I found this to be better than the first Mummy. There is a greater amount of action, romance, and all around entertainment, although it was very hokey in some spots. There is also room for humor, which the original lacked. All around the performances were good, and I can see why the Rock had only one speaking line. Fans of the first Mummy should definitely like this installment.
