    3 Stars A New Evil Awakens 26/08/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great storyline and excellent fighting scenes

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No chemistry between any of the actors, doesn't have the real Evy in it

    A New Evil Awakens. Introduction As you can probably guessed, I thought I'd review all The Mummy films in one week as I've just watched them all from start to beginning, including The Scorpion King. If you've read my two previous reviews you'll know that I watched the first two Mummys in order to go and see this at the movies with my girlfriend and her parents, so I was expecting quite a bit from it. I knew this wouldn't be nearly as good as the first two movies, mainly because Evy's character wasn't played by the excellent Rachel Weisz, but instead Maria Bello. Plot As all the previous movies ... more

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Decent effects

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Should not have been done - see review

    I watched this film on DVD at a friend’s house, and given that I quite enjoyed the first two films, I must admit I had high expectations of it. Story If you’ve not seen the first two films and want to see these in sequence, this review probably has spoilers. I guess the existence of the third film counts as a spoiler anyhow! The film is a sequel to two previous films, The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. Unlike those two films, however, it takes on a new angle and has some significant differences. To give some background, Evelyn Carnahan, or ‘Evy,’ was a librarian, working among and fascinated by ... more

    1 Star A New Evil Awakens 17/08/2008
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Not much.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages All of it.

    The Mummy 3 I have always been a fan of the Mummy series, as you can tell from my previous two reviews and think the main reason why they were so good, wasn't because it was action filled, but because of the chemistry between Evie (Rachel Weisz) and Rick (Brendan Fraser). From the first film, they managed to bring you into the film and the chemistry was just magic, as well as the added bonus of Jonathan (John Hannah). However this is where this film failed. Rachel Weisz decided not to reprise her role, but Brendan Fraser and John Hannah, and probably made not only the worse Mummy film, but one ... more

    1 Star More of A Dummy 24/06/2009
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages It proves Stephen Sommers isn't as big a hack as previously thought.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The direction, the writing, the acting, the effects...

    When young archaeologist Alex goes on a dig to some ancient Chinese catacombs, he inadvertently unearths the dreaded Dragon Emperor and his army of ten thousand warriors. The fearsome tyrant had once laid waste to the eastern world but sorceress Zi Juan bound him and his soldiers with a powerful curse. But when he is awoken he again plots world domination with his undead army. These infernal fighters cannot be stopped by conventional means so Alex enlists his father Rick, his mother Evelyn and his Uncle Jonathan who have more than their fair share of experience with fighting beings from beyond ... more

    4 Stars Mummy 3: A new generation of trouble seeking! 27/01/2009
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fun action and adventure

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Some poor acting

    In a spring/summer season full of big blockbusters, you could be forgiven for momentarily overlooking the adventure rolic from director Rob Cohen: The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. It is the third film in the Mummy series, and it has been a long 7 years waiting for this one to be made. Popular demand a high success rate for films revisiting past successes (Rambo, Rocky, etc) has pushed Brendan Fraser's Rick O'Connell to find more trouble in the mid-20th Century, and Cohen was only too happy to take a seat and direct this one. Also it's 7 years since the last film was made, the timelines ... more
