There were a few things that I enjoyed here - the thrilling and awesomely filmed plane scene; Sofia Boutella as The Mummy; the admirable attempt at a different tone that actually could have worked had the execution been better - but for the most part, it's all gone a bit pear-shaped. That has a lot to do the terrible writing which not only delivers a story that's generic and of little interest, but is also filled with a ridiculous amount of things that make no sense or are just plain stupid such as the poor decision making skills of the characters, all of which fall into one of three distinct categories: boring, stereotypical or very silly (Russell Crowe's Jekyll... what were they thinking). It's greatest sin, however, is that it takes itself way too seriously meaning that it has none of the cheesy fun of the original, but also fails rather badly at being the scary monster-flick it was obviously trying so hard to be.
