The Mummy Returns Pulling All Stops
This flick is pure popcorn. It is superior to the first one. It has everything you could want in mindless summer fare. An easy plot to follow, cool leading characters, great special effects, and did I mention a Crouching Tiger like chick fight mid-way through the film.My only problem with the film was it kind of ripped off other films. The pygmie scene was a direct rip of "Jurassic Park" minus the Velociraptors. And the marketing of the film bamboozled all of us into thinking The Rock was a major character when he only says one line in the movie "Haku Macente" he yells and we wonder why is he on the poster?If you want to escape from your demanding job, nagging wife, or obnoxious kids watch this movie. Take it for what it is pure escapism.
