The Mummy Returns

Starring: Brendan Freaser, Rachel Weisz, John Hannah, Arnold Vosloo, and The Rock

Directed by: Stephen Sommers

Synopsis: A group of cultists resurrect Imhotep to kill the Scorpion King, who controls the army of the god Anubis. However, the artifact (a scorpion bracelet) that will allow this is in the possession of O'Connell's son, and they will do anything to get it back.

My thoughts: This was a great thrill ride, and much scarier (and more violent) than the first movie. It had super special effects until the last 20 minutes, which is when it appeared to have run out of budget (which is why it didn't score a little higher with me).

Score: 7 out of 10
