Funny, I just rewatched this a couple weeks ago, and I can vouch: Aside from a few effects, it does totally hold up. And if anything, its action/horror/comedy mix made it feel refreshing with how so many movies these days feel like they have to be totally grimdark/serious. (Relatedly, I'm not interested in the new Mummy at all for exactly that reason. It looks silly in all the wrong ways.)

I agree that Mummy Returns has a lot of fun moments, but they DID really let the CGI get out of control. There's honestly no excuse for just how terrible the Scorpion King at the end looks. Even at the time, people considered it embarrassingly bad to the point it nearly ruins the finale. (Hell, some thought it would kill off The Rock's then-burgeoning film career, but at least it wasn't THAT bad.)

I will always love this movie. I remember seeing it on VHS as a kid when it came out (or maybe DVD I can't remember) and being both beyond fucking terrified and thrilled. The horror scenes, especially to a little 6 y/o me, were genuinely terrifying, and gave me nightmares for weeks. But I still loved the romance and campy adventure side to it. People like to rip on this movie cause it can be goofy, without understanding that it was intentionally made to reflect the movies of the past. No matter what, this movie is damn near perfect for me, bad CGI and all. Moments are truly breathtaking, and the suspense is to thick and rich. Just a shame modern day (Dark) Universal can't recapture the magic this movie brought us back then. Truly one of the greats.

My late grandmother who was always fascinated in ancient Egyptian culture, upon seeing this spared no time in buying the VHS and showing it to me and my parents. At 4 years old It was my introduction to Egyptian culture and started my curiosity in history and myths with both being presented and firearms with Brandon Fraser and his awesome arsenal. The sequel was and still is amazing. While the third wasn't quite as good as the first two, I did enjoy it with the only exception being Maria Bello instead of Rachel Weisz as Evelyn, not a horrible performance but she wasn't Evelyn. The Scorpion King spin off starring Dwayne the Rock Johnson in my opinion was a great action adventure film, although it felt like two different characters from The Mummy Returns vs The Scorpion King, hard to explain why.

It was also one of the first movies to freak me out. The mummy's awakening traumatized me for a long time.

Like his transformation into the mummy where he had scarabs being poured on him, the reveal of his mummified body, the guy with bad vision trying to find his way out of the tomb and Imhotep stalks him, and a couple scenes where he drains the life out of some guys and you see their bodies. those scenes were TERRIFYING to me back then.

This and it's sequel are two childhood classics of mine, and Van Helsing is one of my favorite movies.

Unfortunately the new Mummy with Tom Cruise has failed miserably to capture the campy, adventurous and fun atmosphere of the 99 Mummy.

I absolutely adore this movie, beyond just being a fantastically fun adventure, it's also one of the most quotable flicks of all time "Hey, O'Connell, looks like I got all the horses!" "I bet you're wondering... what's a place like me doing... in a girl like this"
