This film review for the 1999 film The Mummy will discuss the cheesy action genre as a whole, and how much fun they can be to watch. The Mummy is a film that sees a group of people looking for a fictional lost city in Egypt. Thus it is an action adventure film through and through which is pure entertainment. However, as I’ve said it is also a very cheesy action movie. In other words, it’s just fun to watch the film.
First of all, don’t watch the film for the plot, instead just watch for the action. In doing so you will enjoy the movie much more than normal. Next, while I just said plot isn’t important, listen to the dialogue. Throughout the film, there are countless lines that make you want to face palm, but they fit in so well. These things in tandem make the film one of my favorite action adventure films.
In Conclusion for this Film Review of the 1999 Film The Mummy
Without a shadow of a doubt, this film is worth watching through a couple of times. After all, an action hero with cheesy dialogue is what makes a film like this great. Without the dialogue, this film would only be a supernatural action film. Thus, it has it merits and should be viewed regardless of how you feel about films like that. Hopefully you will go and watch the film after reading this.
