all right and ( shudder intake of breath ) here we go . this movie be bad . now look up bad in every english thesaurus ever make and and all the word there would not begin to describe how bad this movie be . i like the first mummy . i give it a ten . while there might have be a couple tiny bit that leave a bad taste in my mouth and overall i think it be great . stephen sommers be an awesome writer or director and i have always enjoy his film . but this . when i saw the preview and my mouth water and it look awesome . sure it have a kid in it and but i do not think he would weigh the film down . they have all the original cast come back and john hannah and oded fehr . slam dunk and hole in one . but this . they take the first movie and then instead of take all the good stuff and they just condense the bad taste in my mouth part . i be amaze the kid wasn not the bad thing about it . oh and he be bad and but there a lot of bad in this movie . historical innaccuracies and zero characterization and cliche galore . any one of those i could have forgive and but not all of them . this be a big and soulless and hollywood and summer movie . this be indiana jones and the temple of doom . i hat short round . and i hat this kid . for the most part and it a total rehash of stuff from the first movie . i would put in a spoiler warning and but if you saw the first one and you know how this be gon na turn out . bad . it bad . the chick that play ananck su namun be back and and apparently she want a speaking role this time . bad idea . the rock out act her . not the wrestler and one of the rock on film . not that good act would have save this plotless chunk of filth . if you want decent characterization and i guess they think it would carry over from the first movie . the actor be there for filler in between pointless special effect and and dumb fight scene . ( if youre a fan of either and forget what i have say and go see it and enjoy . ) plot hole and oh the plot hole . big enough to pass the giza pyramid through . how do oded get to england and much less to rick mansion . he say he never be on a bus before . evie be a kung fu chick . why do not these neato ability kick in in the first movie . they sure a heck woulda be useful . rick be a magi . do he need a damn reason to fight the mummy . flashback to ancient egyptian foxy boxing and why . the huge honkin tropical rainforest . around a pyramid . in the middle of a desert . no one notice this before . seem odd in a world fill with rocket power balloon . sorry and suspension of disbelief only go so far . jet . we do not even have jet then . that guy would have make some serious money with his invention . i know the german woulda be interested . and the special effect . sure and theyre impressive . but they do not make a movie good in my book . case in point and dragonheart . nuff say . goin to see a bad movie for good special effect be akin to goin to the circus to gawk at the freak show . well and looky that . if that do not beat all . theyre nice and theyre gravy . but i would rather have a well make movie . and the scorpion or rock . man and flashback to clash of the titan . ray harryhausen be turnin over in his grave . if he dead . i hope not and ray a good man . but this . guh . i be not alone in my feeling either . pretty much all in the theater felt this way . when the balloon thruster kick in and i scream and throw a bottle of mountain dew at the screen . many others follow suit . okay . guess that it . i try to stay calm and rational . i guess i coulda send in a comment that be just full of scream and profanity . which be go on in the car on the way home . but i figure this have a good chance of be put up a a warning . if you like the first one at all and i do not think you will like this one much . if youre just look for a stupid summer movie . go ahead and it your soul . peace .
