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 The film can't decide what it wants to be other than a Tom Cruise vehicle. Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Kristen Lopez Culturess 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. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Matthew Rozsa Salon.com It feels less like a movie than a series of compromises worked out by a corporate committee. Rated: 0/4 Aug 3, 2017 Full Review Carson Timar ClapperCast While The Mummy isn't a 1-star disaster, it certainly is disappointing. Oct 31, 2024 Full Review Noah Berlatsky Everything is Horrible (Substack) To update the mummy for our superhero moment, the 2017 movie erases the ambiguity of its predecessors. Feb 4, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies ...a generic middle-of-the-road movie. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 24, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Ted G A totally different but good twist to an already famous movie collection. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/22/21 Full Review nick s Overcooked special effects is the mainstay of this movie. But it's a pity more time wasn't dedicated to storytelling structure. It felt like the writers thought up a bunch of scenes then tried to come up with ways to stitch them together. The result is a ramshackle production that fails to spark. Not a patch on the original Brendon Fraser movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/10/24 Full Review Alex r I enjoyed this film, it was not great. Or even good but a straight up B movie. It is no where near as bad as people made it out to be. But its not worth rewatching once you seen it, its like tv show canceled before the season finale, what's the point in watching. Tom cruise take or leave it. He is just a vehicle to see if the mummy is worth watching the creature. She acts her ass off but she is limited by the script. THe lore is great and there is a lot to build off of. Jake johnson and tom cruise dynamic works but its just not the right script he tries his best. Russell crowe feels completely in the wrong movie, his character feels like an unnecessary cameo. It feels exactly like a unnecessary cameo to pitch the next movie in the franchise. russell crowe character felt like he hammed it up. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Jared E The worst part about this movie is the actor from The New Girl and their attempt to add a comedic bumbling sidekick character to Tom Cruise. The attempt falls flat, why couldn't they just focus on a scary Egyptian horror story? Even that falls flat... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Hunter L The 2017 The Mummy reboot, intended to kickstart Universal’s “Dark Universe” franchise, was widely panned for its lackluster execution. Despite Tom Cruise’s star power, the film suffered from a disjointed plot, uneven tone, and an over-reliance on CGI. Instead of focusing on building a captivating horror atmosphere like the original, the movie leaned too heavily into action sequences and world-building for future films, leaving the core story underdeveloped. Characters lacked depth, and the narrative felt more like a checklist of franchise setup moments rather than a cohesive story. In the end, The Mummy failed to capture the magic of its predecessors or establish a compelling reason for a shared cinematic universe. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Audience Member Takes itself to seriously. The Mummy certainly isn't the worst movie ever but isn't really that good either. It's really in between and somehow is one of my least favorite Tom Cruise movies. Tom Cruise can't even save this movie from hitting the bottom. What was supposed to be the kickstart of Universal's monster films ended up sidelining that plan permanently. The problem with this film is it doesn't know what it quite wants to be. Does it want to be that Tom Cruise action flick or does it want to go more on the horror side? The film does have some cool moments and nice action set pieces but nothing that will raise the bar. This might have been a film where The Mummy remake sounded much better on paper then on the screen. The Mummy gets a mediocre 2 stars out of 5.
