The Forgettable Mummy

 

Tamara really liked the first two Mummy movies. This one? Not so much.

I liked Maria Bello in Shattered (aka Butterfly on a Wheel - surprisingly good movie), but she has zero chemistry with Brendan Fraser. I missed Rachel Wiesz, who wisely passed this flick by. The dialogue is that bad, and while it has its moments of campy fun, it's forgettable.

Coming on the heels of my viewing of The Dark Knight, it felt like watching a late night TNT ripoff of Indiana Jones IV. The only person who comes out of the movie with any bona fides is Michelle Yeoh, who manages to convey real depth in an otherwise paper mache production.
