What to Know

Critics Consensus

Director Lee Cronin's take on The Mummy injects some juicy gore and personal stakes into the classic horror setup, but the scares in this gross-out extravaganza get entombed by a padded running time.

The director mostly reshapes what a mummy actually is to suit his lackluster whims. Go to Full Review

All these moments are good for audience groans and there’s an enjoyable bad movie here for the seizing. Go to Full Review

Mix into that stew are more than a few stereotypes, over-the-top violence directed toward children, and enough body horror to keep you awake at night. If that floats your boat, fine, this movie’s for you. Go to Full Review

(Cronin) shows no interest in playing it safe, nor does he cater to certain expectations. Instead he takes threads of inspiration and weaves together his own wicked tapestry that works as both squirm-inducing horror and rousing popcorn entertainment. Go to Full Review
Jack Martin Film Feeder 14h
2.5/5
Lee Cronin’s The Mummy goes for broke with a franchise reinvention that is grotesquely gory and stylishly deranged, but a derivative script filled with tonal imbalance and frustrating character decisions keep it stuck in its tomb. Go to Full Review

Judy A 32m Wanting to walk out . See more aaron f 41m loved it was defently worth seeing See more Cecilia 52m Goary movie was expecting to get scared See more Antonio Morales 59m Another Blumhouse movie and it lives up to the standard that I expect from them. It is a refreshing take on the mummy horror stories. Hopefully there will be a sequel as the ending left this open. The special effects were good, a decent story and the jump scares were interesting. See more Daniel 59m Much better than critics review See more Brian Hayslett 1h This movie is pure horror! It doesn't drag its feet getting to the meat of the story. Rotten Tomatoes critics are WAY off on this one. Bring on a sequel! See more Read all reviews
