It's a visually appealing but basic introduction to ancient Egyptian culture.

What else would you expect from National Geographic but a rich tapestry of history that’s unfolded right before your eyes?

Mysteries of Egypt proves once again that the next best thing to experiencing the real thing is an Imax film.

Though a little creaky in parts, the film wins us over with its impressive production values, fair-minded presentation and formal ambition.

Overall, a decent 1970's style documentary, but this archeological film barely scratches the surface of the sweeping IMAX potential.
