Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
It's just stupid and inept, which are not uncommon traits at the tail end of the summer movie season.

rotten:
Sometimes, a film defies conventional narrative and artistic standards so utterly that it seems unfair to judge it by them.... Consider this a tone poem in 40 scraps of dialogue.

rotten:
After a first hour that plays like a bad TV show, Sommers hits his groove with an over-the-top Paris chase sequence that, in turn, leads to an underwater finale that's absurdly overproduced, momentarily diverting, and then instantly forgettable.

[Director] Sommers did the first two chaotic Mummy remakes; those play like Tender Mercies compared to this one.

Loud, shiny, and critic-proof, this franchise launcher is basically Transformers minus the humanity.
