The Mummy (1999) [DVD]

Love this movie and so happy I found it in 4k! Looks amazing in 4k! Plus it has the blu-ray version too. So yay!

Love this movie!! It is one of my favorite movies to watch and go to whenever I need something to watch.

this is such a great movie. So glad I was able to purchase it again.

I don't have much to say other than this movie borders what anyone would call "cinematic perfection". If you know someone who doesn't like this movie, cut them out of your life because they're wrong and you don't need that kind of negativity.

I can't tell you how many times I've watched this movie! If you haven't watched it yet grab some popcorn and stream it. Truly a good action comedy.

Well. Just re-watched this still-delightful romp from Stephen Somers and crew and I can say it holds up well. Just getting ready to celebrate its 20th Anniversary, so it is worth looking it its stamina. If you are one of those Digital SFX nerds then, well, never mind. The Digital SFX were great in 1999 and today look like crap. But, who cares? Good films are about story, character, acting and perhaps the visuals. And the visuals are actually pretty great, if a bit cheesy. Is it even important to re-cap the very, very simple plot? It is the plot of every Mummy movie: Europeans dig up a previously long-buried sarcophagus, and really, really bad stuff ensues. The main even there is the breezy, well-written script and the solid casting. On the one hand you have the swarthy Brendan Fraser at the height of his career (where is he now, BTW?) and on the other the Oscar-winning Rachel Weisz in a role she might have come to regret she ever took, early in her career. Its hard to imagine the same actress who played Ralph Fiennes dead wife in "The Constant Gardener" making cow eyes at Fraser, but, well, there you have it. This film is just plain fun, unless you don't like resurrected mummies turning to sand and blowing out of hotel room windows when cute little cats are held up to them And who doesn't.

Fine

This was my first 4k bluray. Being one of my favorites, and being super cheap, I figured it would be a good test of my new 4k player/oled. It wasn't some huge leap, but you could notice. The main thing was the 4k was brighter, which I'm not sure is better.Still. Great movie. Great price. All time classic.
