My friends and I saw it for the second time and we were still as thrilled as the first. I can not believe the leaps in the technology. Also, I have been reading science fiction novels and viewing science fiction movies since I was 9 years old and I am now 63 years of age. It never gets old when someone creates an alternative reality and then draws us in where we feel apart of that reality.This film has raised the bar for upcoming films. What's next has probably not been invented or attempted. It makes for exciting viewing possibilities.
I had a great time. Very funny and I laughed out loud quite a few times. Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds were hilarious together. I hope they had as much fun filming the movie as I had seeing it. The supporting cast was excellent. Betty White stole a couple of scenes. She was very funny. Could this happen in "real life" as a previous reviewer questioned. Who knows...life is stranger than fiction! LOL
I am a huge fan of Brendan Faser but this Mummy sequel was one too many. The CGI and mediocre dialogue overwhelmed me. The best parts were the ones with Jet Li and the actress from "Crouching Tiger" and unfortuanately there were not many of them. Also, the man that played Brendan's son looked too close in age to Brendan to be his son. This is a rental movie....if it costs $1.99. I think it was a missed opportunity. Journey to the Center of the Earth was much more fun. It was an e-ticket ride.
