Juggling laugh-out-loud humor, swashbuckling action, chilling special effects, and swooning romance with equal parts sincerity and style, The Mummy offers all the thrills you could want.
When librarian and Egyptologist Evy Carnahan (Rachel Weisz) wants to find the ancient Book of Amun-Ra, she enlists the aid of the last man alive who knows its resting place: soldier turned swashbuckling treasure hunter Rick O’Connell (Brendan Fraser). When mythology becomes reality, it’s up to them to protect the living from the un-living. Inspired by the timeless 1932 Universal horror film, their breathtaking journey unearths a 3,000-year-old legacy of terror. [125 min; action, adventure, horror; English]
