Flying Crane
Sr. Grandmaster
Big disappointment.
I loved the first two Mummy movies, had hoped for a long time they would do a third, now that they did, I wish they didn't. Not even bringing in Michele Yeoh could save this one, I'm afraid.
It was very formulaic, tried to recreate a lot of things from the first two, and I just couldn't believe the characters in this one.
Rachael Weiz was not in the movie, someone else played the part of Evelyn. This actress, to her credit, tried to recreate the chemistry that the original Evie had with Rick, but it just fell flat. Big disappointment.
A different actor played the son as a grown up, altho I think it's been enough time that the child who played Alex in Part 2 could probably have played Alex again as an adult. The child Alex was much better than the adult Alex. And I usually hate child actors, but the child Alex was actually quite good. Another big disappointment.
Uncle Jonathan was in the movie again, but I just couldn't believe his character at this point in the story. grrrrrrr........
If you are a die-hard Mummy fan, and you feel that you just must see this one, wait for it to hit DVD and then rent it. And don't admit to it to anyone...
