Critics Consensus

Director Lee Cronin's take on The Mummy injects some juicy gore and personal stakes into the classic horror setup, but the scares in this gross-out extravaganza get entombed by a padded running time.

The endless plot complications and the ins and outs of child possession and exodus are too tedious to detail.

We would have liked more clarity in a story that reveals several narrative gaps, that doesn't have a satisfactory ending, and that sometimes deviates too recklessly from what one might expect from a film like this to delve into. [Full review in Spanish]

"A straight-up horror departure from the Brendan Fraser franchise of the same name, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy is less scary than it is mildly grotesque, resulting in what is—ironically—a haplessly gutless affair."

What Lee Cronin's "The Mummy really boils down to is an idea that had a fair amount of potential, but it's one that Cronin ended up taking in all the wrong directions.
