Lightning didn't strike twice here, no sir-ee. The first movie was dumb fun, this one's just dumb. Feels like the hastily slapped-together cash grab that it is. And yet, the CGI Scorpion King at the end is so hilariously awful that it demands to be seen at least once in your life.

Lots of action but no real story, just action sequences loosely tied together in order to get you to the next scene where something else will blow up or something along those lines. A pity because The Mummy was far more entertaining. Although the action in this movie is fun the serious lack of any attempt at a plausable plot drags it down from good to mediocre.

While the first one was effective as an adventure in the mold of Indiana Jones, this one recycles and rehashes the interesting elements, and introduces annoying elements such as the irritatingly precocious bratty child.

Admittedly, this movie is much dumber than the first (Weisz's weird princess arch is the best example) these effects are also at points, hilariously bad (The Rock/Scorpion King CGI is iconic) so I can totally understand anyone's dismay for this film. However, I appreciate this series for being what it is: Dumb popcorn Action/Adventure flicks. They're goofy, and Fraser is especially a goofball. I was entertained, and that's all I really take from this. I don't think about it too much.

This movie was a dissapointment after the remake of The Mummy. Brendan Fraser did an excellent job in the first movie. With the right script, he could have gotten a very good action franchise off of the Rick O'Connell charecter. Sadly, this was just not a strong enough story. The movie felt recycled. Then to be followed up by the Scorpion King? This storyline is now officially dead.

Passable adventure yarn is lighter on its feet than the first film, with Fraser in particular seemingly more relaxed and comfortable (especially when maintaining an amusing running commentary on events); as a whole, the cast are only required to be likable without bumping into the furniture and they succeed at this, with even a nice bit of kiddie acting from Boath. Undermined by typically hideous early-00s CGI (with Johnson's climactic appearance suffering particularly).

The Mummy Returns is drastically worse than it's predecessor but it's nowhere near as awful as the sequel that follows. The sense of adventure carries over well from the first film and the main characters Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz and John Hannah are enjoyable. But the inevitably ushered in child is annoying and the inclusion of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as the Scorpion King was the final blow for me. The set pieces are enjoyable but the PS2 standard special effects are absolutely awful.

The script reaches new levels of ridiculousness (mummified pygmies, dog armies, a woefully neglected child), which bring with them new levels of cringe-worthy CGI (I nearly vomited in my mouth upon seeing the reincarnated Scorpion King) and green screen scenes (see the flight over Egypt, standing on the pyramid). Decent action/adventure set pieces and a few self-aware quips courtesy of the self-preserving Uncle Jon ("Ah, the old 'wipe out the world' ploy") keep this from being a total wreck.

The Mummy Returns is pretty much exactly what you'd expect from a sequel to 1999's The Mummy. It's loud, it's filled with special effects, and there isn't much to sustain an audience apart from constant action scenes and references to the last installment. If all you want from this film is a bunch of action, or maybe some solid chemistry between Fraser and Weisz, you'll probably enjoy yourself.

The Mummy Returns was very disappointing which is hard to understand because most of the creativity returns in this movie. I'm not sure where things went wrong because I loved the first movie and I have watched it numerous times. This is my second time watching this movie but I just can't find much to like about this movie. The story and action are still fun and keep the pace of the movie going. Weisz and Fraser have somehow lost their likability. The CGI looks terrible looking back at it.

I think I really preferred the first movie's horror movie feel, where it had adventures but many creepy deaths happening to non-villain non-henchmen characters just to drive the point of how merciless the monster was. This one is way closer to some kid adventure movie due to the comical ill-fitting critters and the child shenanigans. Not a fan of the reincarnation bit or the Anubis army either

The first Mummy was a good adventure movie, but this is a *great* one. Someone went back, paid attention to everything that was good the first time, added much more, and carefully downplayed or excised the stuff that didn't work. They told the story efficiently, and filled the extra space with lots of well-choreographed action, as well as a couple who feel like they're in love at a Gomez-and-Morticia level, and one of the least annoying and most fun child sidekicks I've seen. A good time.

Attempts to carry on the spirit of the original, but doesn't manage to be as fun, concise, or involving as the first one is. Also involves Rachel Weisz being a rival princess from a past life and Akun-su Namun (or however you spell it) reincarnated, which is unbelievably contrived, even for this series.

The Mummy Returns is a flawed silly sequel to a good silly popcorn movie. In many ways it is as entertaining as it's predecessor but it also fails in a lot of ways. The main two negatives are the rushed CGI which looks horrendous at times. The other big negative is the child actor isn't great and the character is annoying at times. I wish either this took place a few years after the first with John Hannah's character putting on the bracelet or 12 years later with a better child actor.

Being the pro wrestling mark that I am, I was pumped at The Rock being in a movie. Even more pumped when he got his OWN. I don't like Fraser, I think he's too cutesy-poo for my taste and I feel like he has just packed in every performance I've ever seen him in. But I have a bit of a soft spot for the Mummy franchise.
