I really enjoyed this movie. Not only because I'm a fan of all things ancient Egyptian but because it's very entertaining.

I didn't even realize the clothes/style of RW character, Evelyn was a decade older than the '20s movie setting.

Thanks for sharing your review. :)

Have you seen the 2nd and 3rd Mummy movies and The Scorpion King?

I have seen the other two Mummy films. But I've never seen "The Scorpion King". I wrote a review of "The Dragon Emperor".

The Mummy is pretty silly stuff. But that's okay when you consider that, beneath all the action/adventure and horror trappings, it's actually a comedy. Think of a big-budget, high profile effort in the vein of Sam Raimi's Army of Darkness with less camp and better special effects. The Mummy never takes itself seriously, and neither should we. It's a good thing it is funny because, as a thriller, it's an underwhelming effort. I suppose there are times when The Mummy makes an attempt to get the adrenaline pumping, but it never tries too hard. In the end, it's the self-mocking aura that save this film from being a waste of two hours.
