What is this, the SECOND remake of the Boris Karloff original??

The Fraser one was mediocre. I expect this one to bomb miserably.

Third.

The Mummy (1932)
The Mummy (1959)
The Mummy (1999)
The Mummy (2017)

Ironically, the 1959 version was the only non-Universal one, but it was more of a faithful homage to Universal's classic Mummy movies than any of the other remakes.

The Fraser one was a fun, Indiana-Jones-style popcorn movie. Light entertainment and a fun way to kill a couple of hours.

This iteration looks like it can't decide if it's a horror movie, or an action movie, so it fails miserably at both. I think I'll miss it.
