"I'm not really happy about the third movie in this trilogy. And minus the Tom Cruise one."

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1908 movies items)

" The start of a three picture franchise (and one prequel), sure it’s pretty much Indiana Jones, but with mummies. But it’s a fun movie, all around with Brendan Fraser as loveable rogue adventurer Rick O’Connell trying to save the world from a mummy coming back to life, along with Rachel Weisz as Evelyn, a bookish librarian, who he ends end up falling in love with. I mean, who didn’t have a crush of Rachel Weisz, after seeing The Mummy? Or Brandan Fraser for that matter?"

"FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★½ NOTES: Beautiful, clear print with minimal ruin, except for a single, small, diagonal scratch that trails down the right half of the print through the last 40 minutes. Two cuts occurred when Anck-su-namun is touched and cats are explained to be “the protectors of the underworld” – nothing to do with James Ferman, just some missing frames. The scene that Ferman did cut, the hanging scene, is covered in thick vertical lines. This was screened in a doubl"

"SCREENING: 35mm double bill DATE: August 5th CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End NOTE: This was screened in a double bill with Returns, and I was initially considering staying through the whole show when I booked it. Shortly after I did, they delayed it by 15 minutes, and this was too late for me so I decided to just come for the unbeatable first movie."

Terror Blurbs! Part II (An Ever-Expanding List) (100 movies items)

"Plot: An ancient cursed priest is unleashed on the world, courtesy of some bumbling adventurers. "The Mummy" is a pitch perfect blend of humor, adventure, and horror. Playing like both the Indiana Jones sequel we all wanted and a huge summer blockbuster, the thrills and fun never stop coming. The charming cast and effects that range form impressive to lovably goofy feel right at home with the film's particularly affable vibe. If it's fun you're looking for, then look no further. "

Great fun in the vein of "Indiana Jones"...

“"The Mummy" is an adventurous yarn in the vein of "Indiana Jones." It's a lot of fun, very charming, and never tries to be more than what it is. What is it? An entertaining summer flick which is not only worth seeing, but perhaps even owning. It's one of those fun movies you can return to over and over again and never grow tired of doing so.It's hardly a remake of the Universal classic of the same name. It's merely a new way to tell the story with the same basic idea - a murderous mummy is brought back from the dead. This time we have a hero and heroine who must stop him before he takes over the world, or something along the line of world domination.The hero is Rick (Brendan Fraser), a thief thriving off the very basics out in Egypt circa 1930. Arrested and to be hanged, he is saved by the” read more
