The Mummy 1999

Now normally I hate remakes that are dumber then the film they are a remake of. Also I am huge ancient history buff so there are a huge number of things in this movie that should bug me to death,but you know what? They don't.

This movie is big,loud,and goofy but it knows that and it doesn't pretend to be anything it's not or try to have any deep moments. When people talk about movies as theme park rides this is the type of film they are talking about. It's there to get a few scares and laughs and then it goes away. The cast is all in on it and Jerry Goldsmith's score is a lot of fun to just sit back and listen to and it captures the spirit of high camp adventure perfectly. The CGI is done on a pretty impressive scale for the time and the whole film just feels epic and fun.

Is this movie perfect? No,but you know what when I am in the right mood this movie hits the spot.

7.5/10.
