The Mummy (2017) Movie Review

Is it horror? Is it action? Is it a Marvel wannabe? Here's our initial reaction of this bizarre first chapter of Universal's monster reboots, from the company that originally invented the "shared universe" back in the 40s with "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman."

The Brandon Frasier movie worked because it was not a comedy or an action movie. It was an *adventure* movie. Sort of like the original Indiana Jones movies.

[@RubexQewb]

Andrew exactly. It was the perfect blend of horror, humor and action. Especially the 2nd one. The scorpion King thing was stupid but everything before the final act was dope.

[@dankun4932]

Andrew the Hamunaptra series was brilliant. I absolutely adore the series. The best thing about those movies were the characters. So good. Im-hotep Was a brilliant baddy as well.

[@gyloir]

Why did they even say they were going to go back to the horror roots? Was a flat out lie and you could tell from the trailers exactly what they were going for. Cheap action Cheap cgi no horror elements at all.

[@alexsilva28]

They also said their focus was to make good standalone movies and not just big trailers for the next trailer... Lies

Yep. I was excited for a shared universe when Untold released. It has potential

[@caiosoares2834]

i these days i had an idea of a "SNK cinematic universe", i think it's a good idea. (i am brazillian, i don't know very much about it).

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

No, it's not a bad idea, it's just not being done really well. Not sure opening with the Mummy was a smart move nor was writing it with the intent of it being a shared universe, it really should be more organic. I really think it should've been told from the POV of a group of monster hunters and maybe start with a movie about them.

[@leonkenedy2988]

Exactly, at least they have to tried something new in the remake and make it worth watching. The way they switch the antagonist role around in this Mummy movie is a welcome change in pace. But they have to ruin it with their incompetent mind.

[@daltonwilliams1723]

That's ludicrous. If it really is that bad people just forget about the new one and keep watching the original. Making a bad reinvention doesn't "destroy it's legacy". You tried, ya failed. Learn from the past and try again

It just looked so bland! Why bother with something that looks like it'd fit in with as a DC movie? In fact, the mummy woman reminds me of the Enchantress from Suicide Squad.

[@leandromafe]

I dunno, it definetely showed a lot of the signs of a bad movie, but I had to watch the trailer many times because I went to the movies so much these past few weeks and I always thought: this looks like it's gonna be shit, but if they play their cards right, it has potential. These days trailers are not representative of movies anymore.

[@thatcomicnerd3354]

sandiman21 DC movie? Dude DC's on a role right now because of Wonder Woman, so not even the Mummy fits in. This movie would fit with the other bad monster remakes (wolf man 2010, Dracula untold, etc.)

[@KombatGod]

I know James is not a fan of point-and-click games, but whenever I hear him talk about the Universal monsters I keep thinking he should play Hollywood Monsters. Maybe with a guide at hand to solve the moon logic puzzles, but he would get all the references, like when they say that the Mummy and Frankenstein's monster look alike, which is a reference to Boris Karloff playing both characters. The only problem is that it apparently only came out in Spain and Italy (which is a shame, since it's one of my alltime favourite games in the genere), but I think you can play with English subtitles.

[@popc5245]

[@TheHero136]

"None of these people are bad actors, just the script." Cough cough Hayden Christensen cough cough.

"make them look authentic" Careful what you wish for, James. Hollywoods sense of authenticity boils down to pepper spraying it with shitload of cynicism.

[@manpower386ify]

I decided NOT to see this before seeing this video

[@JMBoote1]

One of the reasons I adore the 1999+ Mummy movies are because they actually set them in roughly the same era as the original Universal Mummy movies (the 1999 Mummy taking place in the mid 1920's, The Mummy Returns being set in the early 1930's, and Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in the 1940's). With this new movie, they just made it the present-day, which is really tiring to see in updated classics, where they just set it in the present time. It's not only bad, but it lacks any sort of identity.

[@pathosis]

Here's how to make a good Universal Monsters movie today. *Step 1:* Hire Guillermo del Toro. *Step 2:* Give him full creative control over the script, filming and final cut. *Step 3:* Make it a one off. Don't force him to shoehorn in references to "Set Up" the cinematic universe. *Step 4:* When it's a success, repeat steps one through four again with another movie.

[@adamg4912]

[@BamboLord]

Although to be fair, those original great things never disappear, so why would you have to actually remake things? Maybe just letting new people take their part in doing it? Like, let newer actors have their chance at least lol. I dunno

You can't say if a movie is good just by it's trailer, but you can definitely say when a movie is gonna be utter shit just by it's trailer, 100% of the times.

They should have made it darker. A horror and adventure movie series where they crossover. But not in a comicbookie way.
