I actually liked it

Rating: 7/10 (4 May 2004)

Good old-fashioned adventure no-brainer works perfect just like that, as The Mummy Returns provides loads of fun.
Our two heroes from the first Mummy (Brendan Fraser and lovely Rachel Weisz) are now married and have an eight year old son. He's a bit of a brat, and apparently his parents think alike as they don't hesitate to make out while he is kidnapped by some scary mummy type guys.
The story makes no sense of course (and sometimes is a bit hard to follow), but the special effects truly are amazing and comic relief by John Hannah as Weisz's sister is very funny.
I'd say it's better than the first one, 7/10.
