Predictable. Annoying. Not scary.
What was poor Parker Posey doing in this movie???
I was disappointed in this one. Maybe my love for AQTH only lasts for half-hour intervals.
The intro gets a five, though!
I had heard that this film was difficult to follow and/or understand. I didn't think so. If you haven't see it, don't be scared! I thought it was easy to follow and found the script interesting.
Tilda was brilliant as was the rest of the cast.
The only thing I didn't get was the horses. Did I miss something?
I didn't think I was going to like this movie at all. I ended up actually liking it. It's nothing new or creative, but it entertained me. And grossed me out.
I loved the other Mummy movies. I know they're crazy cheesy, but I've never been ashamed to admit I like some cheese.
This movie goes way far and beyond cheese.
The script is not good. They try so hard for a laugh. But not in a funny way.
"The yak yakked!"
I wanted to give this at least a three based on Michell Yeoh alone. She is awesome in everything. But even she couldn't save this movie.
I thought I'd be okay with the setting not being Egypt, but I was wrong. I think that's part of what I liked about the other two. There's not a lot of films out there being made in Egypt. China, though . . . there's tons of those.
Doll fell asleep in the first thirty minutes. Usually, I can't believe she does that. But with this one, I totally understood.
I bought the soundtrack to this movie back when I was in high school. I never really knew why. But I ended up kinda liking it and it was my first introduction to Wesley Willis.
It's now over ten years later, and I've finally seen the movie.
It is so disturbing and silly but I liked it.
I have to admit, I didn't have good feelings about this movie. I love the original, and didn't want anyone messing with it.
But nobody told me Christopher Walken was in the film!
An early appearance of John Waters set the right mood that not even John Travolta in a dress could ruin!
This was a decent idea. It just went nowhere.
I think Shyamalan gets lazier with each film. He decent talent and somehow even the acting is horrible. Raw and I were openly laughing at Marky Mark.
I watched some "the making of" before I saw the movie. All of the actors were gushing and said things like "We usually get the shot in one take. He comes to the set and knows exactly what he wants."
After watching the movie, I was thinking "He wants that? Crap???"
I wanted to give this one a five, but something kept bothering me. I'm not sure what exactly.
I loved Robert Downey, Jr. But that's no surprise. I've always been in love with him.
The Dude was awesome as a bald dude with a beard. And I didn't even totally hate Gwyneth Paltrow like I normally do.
Maybe it was the predictability. I knew who the mastermind bad guy was going to be as soon as that person's face hit the screen. I knew pretty much nothing about Iron Man going into it, so I would think it should have been a little more difficult to figure out.
There was also Terrence Howard. Ugh. And okay so there were a few parts where I was really annoyed with Paltrow. Most of the dialogue was witty and quick. But there's some parts where she really drags. There's a scene on a balcony that I just kept praying would end soon.
And then there's the big climactic fight. It just didn't feel all that big and great to me. There were other parts of the film that had me more nervous and excited.
And then there's the part at the end of the credits. Really? That guy? Does he have to be in everything?
I know, I'm making it sound like I didn't like this movie. I did. I really did. It was funny and it was breathtaking.
And Downey is not only brilliant, he's way hot!
Is it weird that I'm really attracted to Daniel Day-Lewis but only when he's in character, a la Daniel Plainview or The Butcher?
I loved this movie. I understand how you could be bored at the beginning. Stick it out! You'll like it, I swear!
