The Mummy Resurrected

This horribly written script only left out one thing that might have saved it from bankrupting the producers and those that were foolish enough to bankroll this epic flop - Teen Heart Throbs with pretty faces, 6-packs, big busted low-cut honey's with tight butts in short-shorts, like all the moronic vampire and zombie films and TV shows aimed at the addle-brained adolescents that flock to them.

Trying very hard to look and smell like a Brandon Frasier "Mummy" epic, this is a very poor rip-off. Perhaps the producers should have taken a "slap-stick" approach, rather than attempt a feeble serious guffaw that this turns out to be.

OMG, where to start? The Script, acting, "cinema" photography, plot and probably even the food table for the actors and hands was horrible! You'll be more entertained if you go and rent (buy it) one of the original 1932 B&W Boris Karloff "Mummy" films. This one gave me a whole roll of Tums case of indigestion!

As an Egyptian, I always find it really unpleasant when a movie, that is supposed to be taking place in Egypt, contains "Egyptians" who neither dress as Egyptians nor speak in the language that Egyptians speak. And who live in a land that doesn't quite look like it could be anywhere in Egypt. The makers of this movie, obviously think that all Arabs are the same. Quite as foolish as thinking all Europeans are the same. We actually do feel really insulted by this kind of attitude. And while in other movies that contained some of the same mistakes, such as the Mummy, or Raiders of The Lost Ark, actually had a real fun movie to compensate, with good acting, plot, and special effects. So, we'd still find them worthy enough to overlook such silly mistakes, and we actually do like them despite of that. This film has none of the above that could be considered a compensation to this sort of crap. Bad acting, bad everything. The plot is... well, is there a plot?! The only good thing, if there's any, is that the all girl crew going to the tomb are kinda pretty. So, I give it one star. And my opinion is: Simply awful!

This movie's gift to the world is a whole new definition to the word "Pathetic". Typing 10 lines for this review is a Herculean task. This movie (really???) is a new landmark to the fact that how low and degraded a plot, an actor, and a director can go trying to thrive on reputation of previous Mummy trilogy. A couple of special effects were kinda okay but can be completely ignored. One can give credit for that to cheap CGI effect agencies available now days. Within five minutes into the movie then skipping and fast-forwarding till the end in another 5 minutes seemed eternity. Do yourself a favor... stay away from this movie, it is so infectious it will ruin your whole day. I am running out of patience to end this ten line policy of IMDb. In fact this movie needs and can be defined in one word... Horrendous!

I don't even know where to begin there was no storyline, no plot, all the actresses in it were pretty and young just to get young boys hormones going, it made no sense and by the end of the movie your sitting there thinking wow even Brendan Frasier would be sad right now. Don't WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ITS TERRIBLE AND LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE WAS JUST Extremely BORED AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FUNNY TO TRY AND MAKE THE WORST RIPOFF EVER MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. I would rather watch the original mummy a hundred times before ever considering watching this again. I loved the mummy with Brendan Frasier and own all of them but this makes me sad someone tried to tie this movie with those.

And not the case of a good premise, weak execution but The Mummy Resurrected actually managed to be disaster from the get go. The way it looks gives an insult to the word amateurish, there have been worse special effects but these effects were stiff in movement and look so hastily done, very slapdash at best. The sloppy editing, drab lighting and haphazard camera shots further add to how bad the movie looks. If you are looking for good dialogue, acting or characters you won't find any of those here. The dialogue has a very awkward vibe, a lot of it sounds like total gibberish and improvisatory. The acting screams of both inexperience and pretty actresses- their beauty is pretty much the only halfway decent thing about The Mummy Resurrected if even that- who just go through the motions, have no chemistry between each them and not one seems to care about what would happen to them. Not once do you care for or connect to a character so you feel nothing when there's one less of them, some are so obnoxious you find yourself cheering inside when they're no longer there. The antagonist is a long way from threatening or scary, if anything more goofy than anything else. Worst of all was the story, one so lacking in fun, suspense or tension and filled with ridiculousness and so pedestrian in pace that it's pretty much non-existent. You can say the same for the directing too. All in all, an abomination that is only redeemed(in a very, very minute way) by the beauty of the actresses, which solely gives The Mummy Resurrected 1/10. Everything else however gets a big fat zero. Bethany Cox
