Proving that bigger is rarely better,The Mummy Returnsserves up so much action and so many computer-generated effects that it quickly grows exhausting. In his zeal to establish a lucrative franchise, writer-director Stephen Sommers dispenses with such trivial matters as character development and plot logic, and charges headlong into an almost random buffet of minimum story and maximum mayhem, beginning with a prologue establishing the ominous fate of the Scorpion King (played by World Wrestling Federation star the Rock, in a cameo teaser for his later starring role in--you guessed it--The Scorpion King). Dormant for 5,000 years, under control of the Egyptian god Anubis, the Scorpion King will rise again in 1933, which is where we findThe Mummy's returning heroes Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, now married and scouring Egyptian ruins with their 8-year-old son, Alex (Freddie Boath).
John Hannah (as Weisz's brother) and Oded Fehr (as mystical warrior Ardeth Bay) also return fromThe Mummy, and trouble begins when Alex dons the Scorpion King's ancient bracelet, coveted by the evil mummy Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo), who's been revived by... oh, but does any of this matter? With a plot so disposable that it's impossible to care about anything that happens,The Mummy Returnsis best enjoyed as an intermittently amusing and physically impressive monument of Hollywood machinery, with gorgeous sets that scream for a better showcase, and digital trickery that tops its predecessor in ambition, if not in payoff. By the time our heroes encounter a hoard of ravenous pygmy mummies, you'll probably enjoy this movie in spite of itself.--Jeff Shannon
Returns are a good thing! After viewing the Mummy, it is usual that the sequel not rate as well as the original but in this case it is not so. The Mummy Returns is a very well done production with lots of action and a good plot. Fine reprise acting is given by the original members of the cast and very good performances are turned in by the new additions. This could be watched as a stand alone movie but I would advise watching the first movie before hand as it certainly helps lay the ground work for the second.

Do you like movies with action, mummy's, people being killed by mummy's, and little evil skeleton's (their robots, their not vary spooky now are they.) with spar's.
I have a movie for you it's called "the mummy returns". It is a great movie it has action packed scenes with blood, people being killed, little evil skeletons, love senes,mummy's kill people, and people dieing because of cruse's.
My first point is, I think it is a great movie because, people are being killed by a lot of little jumping skeletons. That are evil little jumping all over the place killing people with spars. The size of them is "10 to 12 inches" for an example they are as tall as from the floor up to the bottom of the chair that goes to the desk.
Also, my other point is, I think it is a great movie, because, "the mummy returns" is an action packed movie with people dieing, and blood. Because, one minute it is a love senses and the next it is a blood fight. Blood is going everywere.to me that is funny in a movie, but for some people they just don't enjoy bloody and gory stuff.
Finally, my last point. I think this movie is great because, I think it has a little bet to much love in it for me. But that is just me. But some people like lovely, kissy movies. But in this movie is don't have to much love in it. So if you like movies with love and kissing in it this movie is not for you. So don't get it if you don't like blood and gory stuff.
Thank you for reading my review on "the mummy returns" Go see this movie if you like blood and gory stuff, if you don't go see it I make the evil skeleton to come and get you.. I think it will give you nightmares. If you like blood, gore.Rememer if you like blood and gory stuff do go see this movie. If you like movies with love and kissing in it this movie is not mummy's, evil skeleton's, this movie is for you. Think you angin.
Pure Action! This was a wonderful followup to the first movie "The Mummy". It Has some great special effects. Non-stop entertainment.
Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are so good together. The young boy who plays their son is a wonderful little actor
John Hannah is so great as the bumbling guttless brother. He is so hilariously funny. And the addition of Shaun Parkes as Izzy makes for some funny gags!
Oded Fehr is awesome in the role and very handsome, dark and mysterious. Arnold Vosloo is so wonderful as the bad dark and evil Imhotep. And, Patricia Velasquez is a beautiful evil reincarnate love!
It helps if you see the first movie before watching this one. There are a number of running jokes that would probably not get unless you had seen the previous movie.
I agree whole heartedly that the animation of the Scorpion King at the end what horrible. Very rough graphics and bad likeness for that hunk, the Rock.
Still, very happy with the movie. A great addition to the other two.
