Movie Reviews of The Mummy Returns [HD DVD]

Movie Review: HD IS EXCELLENT!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a good movie and to add HD makes it even better. The clarity and sound is outstanding. HD is the best thing that has happened to movies in years.

Movie Review: HD-DVD Review
Summary: 4 Stars

If you want a review on the film then visit IMDB or the other amazon page for this.

Video Quality: 4.5/5 stars
There is a ton of computer generated special effects in this movie so HD is perfect for these types of movies. The rest of the movie is also pretty sunning but the movie has a lot of dark shots, so it isn't the supreme HD Demo disc.

Audio Quality: 4/5 stars
The audio isn't TrueHD but it does have a nice 5.1 Dolby Digital track. The surround sound is great in this movie with all of the sands and chases, it really showcases off your audio set-up.

Special Features: 4/5 stars
There is some pretty decent special features in this, but it isn't anything exclusive to your HD disc.

If you already own the regular dvd this isn't too much of an improvement. If you like the Mummy series (new age Indian Jones) then I do recommend this to you. Otherwise it will get much shelf time.

Movie Review: Continuation of The Mummy
Summary: 4 Stars

The sequel to the movie The Mummy. The story is set in 1933, approximately 9 years after the events of the first film. Rick O'Connell is now married to Evelyn and the couple has settled in London, where they are raising their 8-year-old son Alex. The corpse of Imhotep is resurrected in the British Museum, and Imhotep returns to the world again determined to gain immortality. Although, this time another force has also been set loose in the world... a creature of the darkest rituals of ancient Egyptian mysticism, who is even more powerful than Imhotep. When these two forces clash, the fate of the world will hang in the balance, sending the O'Connells on a desperate race to save the world from an unspeakable evil, and rescue their son before it is too late. Overall, I thought that the first movie was better how ever the plot was developed nicely in the second and the continuation of the characters is always a good thing.

Movie Review: The Mummy phase 2
Summary: 4 Stars

Well it is just good fun. Not quite a horror movie, more action adventure with a bit of mummy wrapping thrown in, along with a more than a little precocious child. Same cast as "the Mummy" with a few more thrown into the mix. The mysterious guardians, the Mummy, our gun toting hero, and his very resourceful wife, her bumbling brother all combine to have a good time chasing and being chased through caverns and cobwebs.

Movie Review: Excellent Movie
Summary: 4 Stars

Excellent idea that probably came from the 1950's attempts to put this kind of movie together. However, our era's special effects makes this movie work wonderfully. Story is pretty good. There are some bumps in the telling of the story, but it all evens out. Good action sequences. Some of the characters you wish were smarter, but overall good job. I have watched it several times and will again in the future.
