Critics Consensus

Director Lee Cronin's take on The Mummy injects some juicy gore and personal stakes into the classic horror setup, but the scares in this gross-out extravaganza get entombed by a padded running time.

Audience Says

delivers a sarcophagus of gore-heavy horror that, while reliant on familiar tropes, still ekes out intense thrills.

It's not terrible by any means.

The endless plot complications and the ins and outs of child possession and exodus are too tedious to detail.

We would have liked more clarity in a story that reveals several narrative gaps, that doesn't have a satisfactory ending, and that sometimes deviates too recklessly from what one might expect from a film like this to delve into. [Full review in Spanish]

Far more likely to induce disgust than delight, 'The Mummy' will appeal only to those who savor ghoulish visuals.... The advertising tagline...reads 'Some things are meant to stay buried.' That applies to some movies, too.

The Mummy quickly devolves into an Exorcist-based exercise in wringing whatever shocks are still to be found in a possessed-girl-in-the-house scenario, that we haven't all seen a hundred times before.

There are five jump scares a minute, and because there's so much of it, the film can't devote enough time to its characters or emotion.

It was a different version of the mummy movie, but I thought it was excellent. The movie had some thrilling , suspenseful and a little gory scenes in the movie. Like the saying, say what goes around comes around. So I like the ending of the movie.

Yawn. Another boring horror movie that relies on being cringe and creepy over any type of plot
