Mummy Reborn

nice movie

Teens in financial ruin. You lost me right there it looks like a high school production and a bad one at that. You have clearly ruined even more so than Tom Cruise did with his version of my fave Mummy franchise

I survived Mummy Reborn all of 5 minutes to give it any kind of rating. Waste of time and waste of budget. Only gave it a 1 for Tiffany-Ellen Robinson. Otherwise I would rate this a Zero

Right, well I must admit that I had expected something more of a horror movie that actually had a mummy in it. Instead I was served a hot, steaming pile of... Well, you fill in the rest. I was initially lured in by the movie's cover/poster, and I must say that it definitely looked interesting, and like something that could actually be a worthwhile mummy horror movie. But it turned out that it just wasn't. This was seriously boring. I managed to endure 30 minutes of the ordeal known as "Mummy Reborn", then I simply had my share of pointless movie for the week. In fact, I know I have no intentions of ever returning to finish this movie, since it had absolutely zero appeal to me. The acting in the movie was dubious, at best. So don't get your hopes up, there are no Shakespearian acting performances to be had here. And it didn't really help that the storyline and the characters were flaccid, pointless and very unappealing. So the actors and actresses were fighting an uphill battle that was already lost before it even got started. Sure, there was a mummy in the 30 minutes. But it was so random, and there was no backstory, nothing to indicate why an ancient mummy would show up at a pool and in the middle of middleclass United Kingdom of all places. "Mummy Reborn" was definitely an ambitious low budget and amateurish project. I am sure that the ones involved had fun, but when you sit down to watch a proper horror movie and end up with "Mummy Reborn", people will be disappointed. As I was. I am rating "Mummy Reborn" a mere two out of ten stars, solely because it did have some production value to it, and it was clear that the people behind the project were pouring their spirits into it. Just a shame that this was a massive swing and a miss for my liking.

Wow what a train wreck. I also thought it was part of the mummy franchise but clearly not. The stupidity and acting were so horrible I actually made it through the movie with a grin on my face because it should be listed under comedy.!

If you are reading this before you watch this movie, let me save you a lot of time. IT SUCKS BEYOND BELIEF. The need to change this genre from HORROR to HORRIBLE, it's extremely bad. The producers, director, and writer(s) need to be locked in a room and made to watch to this trash 24/7 for life. MI6 could use it as an interrogation tactic. Piss poor acting, piss poor script, just a piss-poor movie from start to finish, which by the way I didn't finish. You'd find better enjoyment watching paint dry, or concrete get hard. These are certainly people who should never be allowed near pen, pencils, paper and cameras of any type.

At First, i thought it was a sequel of the mummy franchise but.... Whuuuuuuutttt??? Bad acting

"The Mummy Reborn" is a straightforward horror comedy with low budget props and low budget laughs. A lot of films, even British born, fall apart quickly when tackling both iconic horror tropes and convincible humor. This movie avoids most of those pitfalls and succeeds in creating a entertaining, heartfelt dicatomy between thrills and emotion. The story may not be completely original. It doesn't stray to far from the classic "mummy's curse" that we all know. It does, however, freshen things up with a more organic, Western setting in the English countryside, and more light, emotion driven family friendly situations. The cast offer believable, endearing characters. The acting feels a cut above the expected low budget fare with Tina and Max anchoring the bond. It softens the roughness of the movie's jittery tempo. There are moments that lines land flat and comedic antics are a bit over-the-top, but by all accounts the actors own these characters. Most of the comedy lands. The film feels more Saturday afternoon action-adventure on public broadcast than theatrical release. On some level it works in favor of "Mummy Reborn". The horror elements are light, keeping more with the softer comedy angle the overall film takes, the deaths and mayhem stay mild and uncelebrated. The effects are mostly low budget practical tricks, with a small amount of CGI. Think Power Rangers VFX. The results vary. Some of the practical stuff is pulled off through clever screen shots and simple action. A few times the lens lingers a bit too long and the quality drops. For the most part everything, including the soundtrack and creature design work in favor of the overall asthetic of "Mummy Reborn". Overall the film is not going to appeal to the greater horror movie fan, the creature is visible but not in a scary, nightmarish way. The fact that most of the movie takes place during daylight stiffles any chiller effect. "Mummy Reborn" isn't anything like the blockbuster/mockbuster counterparts, but it isn't really trying to be. What it is is a small, indie mummy comedy film tied together with a few heartstrings. Check it out but don't go into thinking it is a Brendan Fraser /Tom Cruise knock off.

I stopped watching after 10 minutes, thought it would get better after the prelude, it did not

Remember when that Universal Dark Universe of their horror movie properties was going to happen? Ah, sadness. To fill the void of mummies, here's Dan Allen and Scott Jeffrey (The Unhinged) with their film, The Mummy Reborn. A group of teens in financial ruin decide that they're going to steal an ancient amulet from an antique store that's going out of business. However, it comes from a cursed tomb and the mummy will do anything to get it back. Keep in mind, this is the first mummy movie I've seen start with a quote from Kanye West. Tina's mom is dead, leaving her with a mortgage and a mentally challenged brother named Max. The aforementioned antique store where she works is closing. And her boyfriend Luke has a plan: steal the mummy that for some reason is in the shop and get the jewel from it to make money. At one point, this is a serious and sad film. And in others, it's ripping off lines from Snakes on a Plane and having characters able to read subtitles as if they were truly there. To say that it jumps around a lot is like saying mummies are wrapped up. I really wanted to like this. There are some fun parts once it stops being so serious and the mood breaks to even feel like an anime. But it takes so long to get there. Yet it's still better than that Tom Cruise mummy movie, which is faint praise.
