Rating: 1.0
Nothing to Return to
The Mummy Returns--your classic sequel. Put everything, and I mean everything, that worked in the first movie into the second. But, to make it interesting, you need to add lots and lots of special effects.*YAWN*. If I hadn't known any better, I would have thought I was watching the first movie. The Mummy Returns was plain and simply a bomb. It shouldn't even be associated with the original, because at least the original came up with it's own ideas and had some character development. In The Mummy Returns, it was all special effects. Nothing more than that. Sure, they were great, but it got real old halfway through this stale and utterly disappointing film.It seemed Stephen Sommers only focus was on the special effects and nothing else.The Mummy Returns was a pitiful attempt at a sequel, and hopefully, but not likely, this will be the last movie in this series. 2 Stars
