Not only is this one of the worst movies ever made, but in my opinion it was extremely funny. It wasn't meant to be funny though. At the meant to be funny parts I shuddered due to the cliched movie hogwash I was hearing. Some parts were just unbearable. There were so many stupid mistakes that the directors made that were in the film. I don't mean like seeing a shadow or a boom mike on accident, I mean things that just don't make any damn sense. For Example: When the team of adventurous, pulp comic, Indiana Jones rip-off team of heroes were traveling in a blimp made out of wood, they had a fire in the blimp. I don't mean in a secluded little stone alcove made for bonfires, I mean right on the wooden floor of the blimp. This is what I saw! And then, later, when the heroes were trying to escape impending doom from a previously KILLED AND SENT TO HELL mummy monster guy, they escaped on their blimp in a very fake manner. They didn't deflate the balloon or anything that stupid, they used advanced rocket technology...with seemingly no harsh burns or accidents...in 1935...when rocket technology was unheard of...on an independent charterer's seemingly pieced together by junk blimp. Just great. That made a whole lot of sense. The scenes in this movie just didn't make sense. When Brendan Frasier and that magi guy are stalking through a museum, they encounter many live mummies...trapped in glass...brought back from the dead. That all seems okay. But when this seemingly terrifying ordeal was over, they seem unfase, the don't even mention the incident...ever. And what is the deal with Imhotep or whatever. He was dragged to Hell at the end of Mummy part one, right? Well, now somehow they dug him up only to find him encased in some sort of bug carcass loookin thing. HOW? HOW? HOW? THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!!!! I couldn't control myself at many parts of the movie from making both snyde remarks and immense outbursts of rude laughter. Oops! The cliched gun fights with the average enough lookin Arabs were once again, completely stupid. The same thing happened again and again. A bunch of Egyptians clad in the average turbin and desert fatigue (IN LONDON!!!) with NO ACCURACY FIRING THE AUTOMATIC WEAPON were killed almost instantly any time the good guy pointed a gun at them. Maybe I just have really good taste (considering one of my favorite movies is Evil Dead II) TRUST ME, DON'T SEE THIS MOVIE. IT WAS INCREDIBLY STUPID!
