Okay, so it's not Gone With the Wind, but it's a good movie, never-the-less. Despite a couple of inaccurate items (5 jars instead of 4, and shotgun shells that are plastic in an era where they would have been solid brass), it was an awesome movie, people.
Yes, there is a plethora of special effects, and they look really GOOD. This is the first "mummy" movie in my experience that covered the concept/progress of a mummy back into a human being. I rather enjoyed seeing a mummy having a purpose other than to kill off people who had intruded on the mummy's sleep.
There were moments, or particular scenes, which seemed predictable, but they were fun anyway. While the movie seemed reminiscent of an "Indiana Jones" adventure, there were elements of "Aliens", and others as well. Not that this detracted from the enjoyment quotient of this movie.
Okay, so most librarians don't look as good as our heroine and the bookshelf scene reminded me of "Robin Hood: Men in Tights", but don't let that stop you. This movie even managed to poke a little fun at itself ("that sure happens a lot around here").
Go see this movie; kick back and enjoy. I did.
