There's a sting in this tale!

Advantages: Exciting, action-packed
Disadvantages: Bit too much for one film, flaws/holes in the plot

...as I had recently seen the third and first of the films, decided it was best to review them in order! Firstly a piece of advice, although I will try my absolute best not to plonk in any big spoilers here (with regard to the first film - this will be hard) I think it is best not to see this review until you've watched the first film. It should make sense, but it's always better to do things in sequence! I really enjoyed the first film, and so when ...
...- if you've not seen the first film, read this bit** Evelyn Carnahan (Rachel Weisz), the clumsy librarian and her brother, Jonathan found an unusual, star shaped item inside a tomb, decided to investigate and went on an exploring journey. On their way, they met Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser), a prisoner, who agreed to help in return for his freedom. But there were other Americans on a treasure hunt and between the two gangs they managed to awaken ...

Beware of Mummy

Advantages: The lovely Rachel Weisz
Disadvantages: Only appears in the last two

The Mummy was first on the scene, in this epic trilogy set in 1920's Egyptian that follows the exploits of a group of archaeologists led by adventurer Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) that discovers the mummified body of Imhotep, an Egyptian priest who was cursed for falling in love with the Pharoah's mistress. Naturally they accidentally resurrect him thus ensuring a rocket ride battle for their survival in a bid to halt the mummy to reclaim his ...
...Although a dark comedy, the balance between the horror and the comedy is so well placed that it's a fun ride for anyone who watches it. Fun performances from Fraser and Rachel Weisz add to the tongue-in-cheek Saturday matinee appeal boosted by modern special effects can only improve on the Raiders of the lost Arch genre. . Screenwriter/director Stephen Sommers has taken license on this format and extended belief with flesh-eating beetles and battling ...

The Mummy Movies

Advantages: Having all 3 films in one.
Disadvantages: 3 films in one.

The Mummy is a good film, though it is a done before film, it is still action packed, hilourous in places, and has it's share of romance, and special effects. The acting is good, and the film is full of action to keep you on the edge of your seat. The Mummy 2 is just as good. It isn't a copy of number one either, so it makes it worth watching for the special effects. The Rock's brief apperance in this makes it worth watching. Scorpian King, was a ...

Advantages: great watching
Disadvantages: none

As they become aware again, they realise that two hours of their lives have gone missing. Sherry and Craig have been trying for years for a baby, with no success.

...reveals some of the events of that evening. Craig has now got extreme suspicions about the baby within his wife, while she thinks its all a bad dream. But who will be right? The film is excellent viewing, and very compelling. It is an interesting and different film. With the thought of aliens, and then the viewing of them in parts - proves to be very watchable. Extra features include: Chapter search, Trailer, and Cast and crew interviews. Certificate ...
