What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lacking the campy fun of the franchise's most recent entries and failing to deliver many monster-movie thrills, The Mummy suggests a speedy unraveling for the Dark Universe.

Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review 08/28/2018
The film can't decide what it wants to be other than a Tom Cruise vehicle. Go to Full Review
Kristen Lopez Culturess 11/20/2017
This incarnation of the wrapped figure is a dusty combination of Fatal Attraction and Mission: Impossible, making for one of the year's worst films. Go to Full Review

08/22/2021 A totally different but good twist to an already famous movie collection. See more Zachary B 1d Supernatural meets Mission Impossible meets zombies meets military comedy? Tries too hard to be so many different things for a movie. See more Kelly N Dec 30 This had so much potential. So boring. I feel Tom Cruise was the wrong choice for this role. Special effects weren't bad See more Mate P @matepolcz Dec 29 The Mummy is a worse movie than I remembered, but still not unwatchable. The characters are pretty straightforward even though they wanted to make some of them more complex or give them an arc. The story is also simple, but at the same time it doesn't always make sense. The ways characters get separated is sometimes ridiculous. This film is also a lot more comedic and erotic than I remembered. I didn't get Russel Crowe's character at all. I wonder how much Christopher McQuarrie was involved with this one, because they never talk about it. The directing isn't too bad, I liked that the tone was pretty comedic, but the dialogues didn't do it justice. The fight scenes are really good. The cinematography is also pretty good with some really well-shot sequences, but some others do look bad. Although much of that might be because of the wonky CGI. The casting is somewhat good, but there are some miscasts. The Mummy isn't unwatchable, but it bleeds from many wounds. See more FIERY1 F Dec 27 I found this surprisingly enjoyable despite the low ratings it has received overall. I enjoyed the story of Princess Ahmanet , Sofia Boutella played her perfectly. The presentation of her ancient corpse looking body and how it transforms to its cursed , yet enchanting form, is captivating! The introduction of Dr Jeckyll and the disclosure of Prodigium was a sweet and sensible reveal that melds the role of Jenny's purpose. I am not a fan of horror but the genre spectrum not being rigidly dark and horrific is exactly what kept me glued to the end. The moments of comedic relief and the role of Chris worked well in providing great absorption of the horrific moments. The ending was an apt wrap up as it ties into the Egyptian quote which encapsulated the power of the curse at the beginning of the movie, yet with a clever twist on Nick's potential fate, due to his own defiance on its use of power. See more D3Z 1 Dec 22 Alex Kurtzman's take on the Dark Universe's The Mummy certainly not only ended being a rather dull and forgetable dud, but rather messy and boring at the same time.
