Critics Consensus

Lacking the campy fun of the franchise's most recent entries and failing to deliver many monster-movie thrills, The Mummy suggests a speedy unraveling for the Dark Universe.

The film can't decide what it wants to be other than a Tom Cruise vehicle.

This incarnation of the wrapped figure is a dusty combination of Fatal Attraction and Mission: Impossible, making for one of the year's worst films.

It feels less like a movie than a series of compromises worked out by a corporate committee.

While The Mummy isn't a 1-star disaster, it certainly is disappointing.

To update the mummy for our superhero moment, the 2017 movie erases the ambiguity of its predecessors.

...a generic middle-of-the-road movie.

A totally different but good twist to an already famous movie collection.

The Mummy was released in 2017 and is a reboot of the earlier trilogy starring Brendan Frasier and Rachel Weisz. This attempt stars Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, and Sofia Boutella and is directed by Alex Kurtzman. While the earlier movies with Frasier were campy fun with some action and horror mixed in, this new version felt like Mission Impossible with a female mummy. It has a lot of action but very little horror, and very little plot, with some odd CGI and Russell Crowe shoe horned in for what I will assume was the studio's attempt at starting their 'Dark Universe'. Cruise was serviceable, Boutella and Crowe felt miscast, and the movie needed less action and more horror elements, at least for me. This was likely one of the worst Tom Cruise movies I've seen, and I saw Coctail, so skip this and go watch the Brendan Frasier Mummy movies again.

Sad and pathetic. And I love Tom Cruise but not in this disaster. And that female playing opposite him is the most annoying woman.

When people talk about how the Marvel shared universe formula has ruined the film industry, this is what they mean. The most tonally confused movie I’ve ever seen as it tries to do creature horror, big action, & charming comedy all at once. I’m a massive Cruise fan, but he is not the man for this job with his forced quirky, reckless attitude. The studio tries to do something new with this classic monster but also tries to capture the spirit of its predecessors & fails at both. Genuinely a few really cool shots & set pieces in the first act but the chaotic editing & unfocused ideas made a mess on all fronts.
