I am glad they made Evie more attractive in TMR, she deserves to show off her pretty eyes. I think this is why the two seem so believeable in TMR, they are just two normal people who are still very beautiful people. Brendan Fraser is very easy on the eyes and he looks like a down-to-earth guy, not like a stereotypical moviestar. A little bit of romance was what was missing from the first 2/3 of 'The Mummy', and I am so glad it was included much more in this film. This was why I liked this one better than the prequel. They looked like an actual couple in this film, unlike other recent movies. My favorite part of 'The Mummy Returns' was the great chemistry between Brendan Fraser Rick and Rachel Weisz Evie. I wasn't really looking forward to seeing The Rock as the Scorpion King in this film, but he wasn't as bad as I thought, even though he was only it for about three minutes, I would have labled him as an extra. He keeps the heroes grounded.Meela/Anck-su-namun, played by Patricia Velasquez has some good scenes, but I found her to be not as great as the rest of the cast. He is a cute kid and l hope he will have a good acting career. He had many great lines and was sarcastic when the film needed it. Many people disliked Alex O'Connell, played by newcomer Freddie Boath, but I found him to be quite funny and likable. Arnold Vosloo is great as the title character, but could have been more like the original, he was not as powerful in this film but was good anyway. I thought that Jonathan, played by John Hannah, is one of the funniest characters ever, his one-liners are terrific, I was laughing out loud during his lines. But, on to the greater aspects of the film. The pymies were so amazing, and the Anubis warriors were excellent as well.

I probably could have watched it 24 hours straight, but I didn't want to ruin it right away.The SFX in TMR were outstanding. I actually found myself watching it three times in a row. The plot was a little confusing, and the Scorpion King graphic at the end looked like the same one used in the video game, but all in all it was an extremely fun and enjoyable movie. The action, special effects, acting, comedy, and romance were all better than it's prequel in my opinion. I waited until this past weekend to watch TMR on pay-per-view not expecting much due to the bad reviews, but I soon found out that, boy, were some of those critics wrong.Right from the opening scene I knew I wasn't going to be disappointed.

I let the reviews get to me and I didn't see the movie while in the theaters. I was dissapointed because I didn't understand how Stephen Sommers could direct such a great movie classic and then totally botch a promising sequel.
