saw this movie in india and when tom cruise turned into the mummy some guy said in a glorious indian accent "oh i guess mummy is now daddy" I laughed so hard that comment was more entertaining than the movie
"They mummified her alive"... but how? The ancient Egyptians took out her organs (including the heart)? She looked pretty alive in that Halloween costume
The mummification process does make pretty sure the person is dead, if not at the start then definitely at the end. Anyway, what difference does it make if she was buried alive? Undead is undead.
Your Dad Actually what they said in the 1999 Mummy was only partly true. This is graphic and disgusting, so if you'd prefer not to read it, I'll give some space so you won't even accidentally if you don't want to.... . . . . . They do stick a red hot instrument up the nostrils to the brain, but they spin it around until the brain liquefies and drains out. Not yank it all out in one piece.
When they said “Set, the god of death”, I had two sins in mind. 1: Set is the god of the desert and violence, not death. The crew clearly didn’t do their research. 2: Why are death gods always portrayed as evil? Just because you’re the god of death or the Underworld does NOT make you evil.
Hell, Hades is the god of the Underworld, and even tho he's not Death itself he's still a pretty chill but rough and fair guy that's just doing he's freaking job, which is making sure the deads don't escape to make some bullshits on Earth. If anything, he's the good guy here.
Seth was the one who killed Osiris and cut his body into pieces...so I think he's pretty evil. Anubis on the other hand, as far as I know, is not. Correct me if I'm wrong, my knowledge on Ancient Egypt is a little rusty.
It doesn't have Brendan Fraser b/c his ex-wife took him for _all_ he had in _years_ of legal battles over their divorce. She raked him over the coals, leaving him more or less a quiet husk of a man, a shadow of his former self, not the lively actor we saw in the _original_ Mummy. Really sad...he was one of my favorites. :'(
1:06 Bullshit. Set was the god of destruction. *Anubis* was the god of death. This movie doesn't even get its Egyptian mythology right. *Ding!* *2019 edit* - Holy shit, I had no idea this got so many likes.
Immaa Bananaa Anubis was originally the God of the Dead, however, over time, he slowly got replaced by (you were right) Osiris, and Anubis would become the God of Mummification/Embalming.
This movie feels like it went through a couple really significant rewrites. At points it seems to be trying to make the mummy a tragic figure, and almost seems to be setting her up to somehow be redeemed by Cruise. Which may be why the female lead feels so tacked on, she came in from another rewrite. And Jeckyl/Hyde feels like he was clearly a villain at one point who was rewritten into a kind of antihero for future "universe" projects. The whole thing just seems like two or more movies fighting for control.
You're right, the movie seems to never be able to decide if the mummie is an all-and-out villain, or sympathetic victim-turned-monster, or what. And while Annabelle Wallis is doing anything that good acting can do, that doesn't save Jenny from feeling more like a check-list of Hero's Love Interest tropes ( 'romantic' past, bickering, some feelings still present, gets saved by hero) than a character. I didn't make the connection myself, but yep, this screams "too many rewrites" .
since when is Set god of death or the dead? he is the god of Chaos. Osiris his brother is God of the dead and Anubis care taker of the dead. This is the problem with modern Hollywood movies about ancient cultures. We think of the Underworld as the same as Hell, but its not. For the Egyptians there was no real underworld you stayed in. either you passed to paradise or you where eaten by Amiti. also to clarify, Hades is not the Greek Equal to Satan. hades was a rather chill but stern and fair guy who did his job.
It is Hollywood, they get most things wrong and when they do reboots, they write them like a 2 year old would. Hollywood has been going down hill mostly.
LuckXvaati Too be honest, the only good part of this movie are her and Russel Crowe. At least, she didn't act like wacky wavy infalatable arm tube man.
Contrary to popular usage... "lady" does NOT mean "has a vagina". I require proof that the ancient broad who was mummified was anything at all resembling a "lady". You might as well call her a "nun".
The fact that there isn't a 'no Brendan Fraser' sin adds a sin to this video Edit: actually I changed my mind not even Brendan could've saved this tragedy.
+Tess Bitch (Tessa) I'd like to speculate that, given how bad this film was, they might have to take their time to make the dark universe ;) franchises only work if people pay for them :D
Would have been way better with, say, a Magi cameo, instead of a Magi ripoff. Considering how little Jekyll mattered to the plot, they might as well have had him be Brendan Frasier.
+Katy Lawson It’s been widely advertised that Universal wants to make an expanded universe (as in all taking place in the same time/place) of monster films. So they’re tying in the Mummy with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
He acted like he cared for the mummy when they had her chained then 5 minutes later he leave to find the stone to destroy it. He also cares for a blonde he barely even knew.
Set... isn't the god... of death. He's the god of chaos. Which have been just as cool. I'm not sure if they knew he was the god of chaos and changed it for some reason or they just googled "Egyptian God of death" and saw Set's name from some random website and went "yeah, Set sounds scary, let's go with that."
Yea if they wanted to include a god related to death they should have picked either Anubis or Osiris, which are gods of the process of death, and god of the dead, respectively.
I can accept an ancient Egyptian saying the English language is simple seeing as how incredibly complex Ancient Egyptian seems to have been. That is the ONLY thing I can accept about this stupid movie.
english isn't the easiest of languages to learn, they say. it may not be mandarin chinese, but to say it's simple is kind of dumb. it's not about just learning new words, it's about thinking in a different sentence structure, too.
I got the impression that Jenny and Athenat were talking in ancient Egyptian .... They started that way then phased into English once that fact was established. What i think Athenat meant was that her use of the langue was simple, in particular the phrase 'the old gods' which she seemed to find ridiculous and ignorant. So (from what I understood) it was modern western man's thought process that was simple, not the English language.
English is my third language and yes it is easy to learn. If u try to learn arabic u won't succeed it is so hard for u and there r some letters u cannot prononunce likeض and ع and ق
You guys missed a big plothole. After mummifying her, they said they took her far from Egypt (northern Iraq) just to build her a prison, which they did in JUST ONE NIGHT. How did they get her all the way to fricking Iraq and built her a complex prison in one night?
People!!! Remember that the Ancient Egyptian Gods were in fact alien parasites which formed symbiotic relationships with human hosts. Their pyramids were actually spaceships, so a one day trip from Thebes to Iraq would have been a breeze. Am I the only one that remembers Stargate? 😱
One of the things that bothered me so much was the fact that he mourned more for a chick that he met 2 days ago than for his supposed best friend that he had known for years (and that HE had killed).
That would be actually an awsome movie title and working title for writing an awsome movie, no matter the genre. and we all would like to see the prequel "you do you girl,no matter what they say"
All her unlife, evil mummy lady had been told to go and find herself a good human slave. This summer, THIS evil mummy lady has her OWN ideas. She's gonna be her OWN SLAVE!
Honestly this entire movie would've been way better without the romance plots. The romance in the original mummy felt right, the characters grew on each other. In this one it's more like "uhhhhh we need a romance, let's throw in this useless female co-lead so Tom has someone to care about, also make the mummy kiss Tom because we accidentally created a overpowered creature that could just kill him in an instant."
"They mummified her alive" They buried her alive There's a difference between mummification and wrapping someone in toilet paper and glue then burying them
you forget that that´s from the same guys that said that set was the god of the dead.... it was clear from the opening that we cannot expect any decent research from these guys
Universal really needs to give up on this "Dark Universe". Also, Osiris was the Egyptian god of death, not Set. Movie can't be bothered to do a 5-minute Wikipedia search. (Ding!)
Coraline Parmentier - Pianist for Peace what the he’ll happened to Frazier? He was so versatile as an actor and had such charisma, and gown to earth.. everything that Tom cruise is not
The thing about this movie is that it's basically a reboot of the original Mummy movie from the '30s and has nothing to do with the Brandon Frasier franchise aside from the name.
HE'LL not be coming back to this franchise ! Now that CRUISE has officially polluted it ! Maybe he's getting a new GOWN fitted for his next earthly adventures HA Ha ha ha !! just teasing you there looky Seems Hollywood just tires of people easily !! one odd exception being this alien chasing scientologist !!I don't know if I should be laughing at that !! ENJOY!
@@Dehslash9 Now THAT would be the perfect combo! Couldn't wait to see a movie like that! And you would know for sure the acting would be on point, done by really great actors, even if underrated, and not by some shitty "A-list" good for nothing, overrated Hollywood stars. (Seriously, Tom Cruise? Nicole Kidman in "The Others"? Might as well watch a toilet paper roll, that's more expressive). Although, you can only have one director, as far as I know it.
@@Dehslash9 that would be a nice solution. I don't know which one would be better at directing, but James Wan is not very good as a producer, for what I've seen, or maybe it's just me.
Is it wrong that I like the mummy better then the actual female lead honestly she is a lot more interesting and I think it be cool to see the villain win.
I think she was the star of the movie too. And I think she will come back in future dark universe installments as a protagonist if they continue the series
It's not weird. I actually liked her alot too. She was interest to look at, interesting to watch, actually DID SOMETHING and had more chemistry with our male lead than the female one. I found the blonde chick annoying, naggy, pointless and useless, and when she ACTUALLY DIED I went "holy shit. They actually killed her off! Good!" Of course it didn't last... Half god resurrection out of "love" bullshit. This movie is funny in that the actual kiss the male lead has is with the villain to suck the life out of her. Haha.
You guys are the best!!! Keep up the great work!!! Please do: 1) Rogue One 2) The Princess Bride 3) Tropic Thunder 4) The Circle 5) Jack Reacher never go back 6) The Huntsmen Winters War 7) Back to the Future 3 8) Shrek 3 and 4 9) Mulan 10) Madagascar 2 and 3
Sinning the Princess Bride seems like only something a sourpuss with too much time on their hands would do. The whole thing is supposed to be a children's story anyway so there is a very high willing suspension of disbelief.
Anshul Saini, complete pants because it's Tom cruise. Mission Mummy Possible. Fucking shit with no characterisation just bullshit paper thin objects trying to make people laugh a little squeak but...nah.
I like Almenak but hate Tom cruises character. Who's gonna win in a battle between Rick o' Connor or Tom cruises character in charisma. Making more films, not nesseraly means there's more charisma in the actors quality but playing the character for a specific role in the movie is key, that's why Rick o Connor wins hands down. That's why in my opinion this film is of poor quality, it was shit. Only Brendan Fraser can play as Rick o Connor best. And if he were to pass the mantel piece, it should be to Dwane Johnson, much better than Tom cruise 100%.
XD I find it dumb that Ahmanet need a God's (speaking of which last time I checked Anubis was the god of the dead, not Seth) to kill a baby and two people in their sleep. She didn't even use her dark powers to do that, just a knife. She could have used poison or a cobra to get rid of them without selling her soul for dark powers. They say in the movie that she's a cunning warrior, but those actions don't match up.
Seth is the god of Violence and disorder, Anubis is god of the Afterlife and mummification, so technically there is no god of death, so Seth fits this movies version. (i hate that i'm defending this movie at all)
I just assumed that it was party of the ritual. Like the blade needed to be bathed in the blood of the innocent before it could actually as a conduit to bring him into our realm. Yeah, the movie in no way says this. But something's you just have to go with what makes sense for you.
Phonyyx the darts the Egyptians shot her with injected her with Mercury, stunning her peers long enough for them to subdue her (I guess, I mean when she pulls the darts out you can see some Mercury leave the wound)
I recently rewatched some scenes with them in the old films and my god, they had fantastic chemistry with one another in those movies. And I'm not even someone who usually cares about chemistry.
Soji SideQuest Yeah I remember watching an interview like that a couple years back. All that luster he had pretty much faded. The sad reality of Hollywood.
slvrcobra1337 Hell yeah they did. Lack of chemistry is the standard in movie romances today. Shallow and completely contrived. It was great how in The Mummy Returns it was explained that Rick was always destined to protect Evy as a Medjai.
My biggest problem with their movie, is they seemed to not know what a Long Range Recon(special forces) soldier actually does, or what amount of training they get. Tom Cruises character would be a: -triple volunteer, just to get into the program, and have signed a 5yr contract willingly. - an expert in hand-to-hand combat - an expert marksman, with pistols, SMGs, MGs, and sniper rifles. - have gone through 2-3 psychological tests, to make sure he was a perfect fit for the job, and not prone to looting and other war crimes. - gone through the Full Army Ranger course, and likely cross training with other Special Forces. - have known that looting in a combat theatre, abandoning his post, and ignoring his standing orders; would get him convicted of dereliction of duty (minimum), and treason (maximum). And they still wrote him as a bumbling idiot, who just fell into the adventure, as a regular guy.
one thin that triggered me the whole movie: *SET WAS NOT THE GOD OF DEATH!!!* He was the god of disorder, storms and deserts. The Egyptians had the concept of "death" as merely a passage of realms, something that is natural and not necessarily a bad omen. The god of death is Osiris with Anubis as the god of funerals. For a movie that reboots the original, I imagined they could've done a better research on egyptian mythology. Heck, they could'vew read Riordan's "Kane Chronicles"!
It seems happen a lot with God's of afterlife that people assume that they were the devil's of their religions and the afterlife is all hell even when it is not. Hades has the same problem to.
11:42 "Henry" is Dr. Jekyll's first name, but I'll let the sin slide because the movie never told you and anyone who didn't read the book wouldn't know that.
Who in the absolute crap came up with these names? Who sees a group of birds and thinks "boy! What a murder or unkindness!" Maybe they just hated ravens. We all know Poe did...
Do you know how dumb that would sound? What was this person thinking when they came up with that? "Look, it's a flock of ravens!" "No, that's a _conspiracy_ of ravens." "What's the conspiracy about them?" Unkindness sounds even more dumber. Ravens aren't even unkind.
Well the way groups of birds are named is likely because of what they did or were used for: A murder of Crows: Crows would destroy crops which could lead to starvation for a town or village so the Crows would be directly responsible for the death of humans thus murderers. A conspiracy/unkindness of Ravens: Ravens would be used as messengers both by Humans and the God Odin so if a lot of Ravens are seen then it could be considered trouble because of the saying of "No News Is Good News". This is just my personal thoughts on the matter.
"I swear to God if this movie flashes back to this same desert scene one more time I may have to shove its obelisk so far up its sarcophagus you won't even be able to read the hieroglyphs." bwaahahahahahahahaa
Movie tries to get us to buy into a relationship between two characters with so little chemistry not evem Walter White could find it ... LMAO HAHAHHAHAHA
At 3:33, the _exact moment_ the lady said "Get the lights," I got a U.S. Air Force ad that started with them loudly turning on the lights in a jet hangar.
Flapjack Slashjack I didn’t notice that. I did notice that Nick & Vail first say they are “a hundred miles” from where they were supposed to be. Then after the airstrike the army guy says they are “a hundred klicks” away. Those are NOT THE SAME.
never trust any1 who drinks warm beer and drives on the wrong side of the "bluuhdy" road but at least they call the correct sport football. Something for every1
Another sin that's actually a sin in the 1999 Mummy as well, is that they say they mummified them alive. They remove the internal organs and remove the brain during Mummification, only leaving the heart, they should be long dead before being wrapped up and put in the coffin. So technically they weren't mummified alive, they were buried alive.
lol. it was literally a big partof the movie that imhotep was actually cursed to never die, and then they took his eyes, his organs etc etc, placed it inside the little boxes the americans took. thats why he was killing all of the americans,, he had to retake his organs and was slowly reforming himself.
Wait, I thought that the jars were needed for his girlfriend, since the mummy got his tongue cut off, then he was placed in the coffin, and the scarabs ate his body, including the organs.
You forgot to mention, during the scene where they supposedly mummified her, you talked about the eye holes but mumification was actually removing the body organs and drying out the body and separating the organs; simply wrapping her in a cloth and putting her in a casket alive is not mummifying.
"I swear to God if this movie flashes back to this same desert scene one more time I may have to shove its obelisk so far up its sarcophagus you won't be able to read the hieroglyphs"
why would a female mummy be 'sooooo great'? seems to me the only reason the mummy was female was to appease SJWs. if they want to make her female because they think it brings something to the character or story, okay, great, but don't do it for woke points, that shit always backfires.
@@ryanbarker5217 There's been lots of female mummies before in books and films ... Including two Hammer horrors and that film with Charlton Heston form 1980. Plus Anack san-ah Mun was both a mummy for two seconds in the 1999 film and a reincarnated mummy in the 2001 sequel. And she had heart and other worthy organs ... inside of Sophia Boutella's small but perfectly formed ribcage. And, a North African playing an ancient Egyptian for perhaps the first time ever? (1999/2001 were played by a South African and a Puerto Rican)
@@sergiocampanale3882 the problem is these studios race and gender swap to appease an audience that doesn't even watch this stuff. then the fans are screwed in the process by being given an I-gendized piece of sub-par wokery unfit for prisoner movie night. it's crass marketing that even the alphabet communities seem to be wising up to. if you're going to get woke, you'll probably go broke, but the least they can do is appease the cinematic gawds by making a watchable flick. let me put it another way: if making bad movies were a crime that landed those responsible in actual jail, wokeness in movies wouldn't exist as main propulsion units. it might be some obscured background commentary easily shrugged off, but it wouldn't be the consuming impetus for how characters are structured (if you call a mary sue character a structure) and how the relationships are handled particularly between male and female characters. the *only* difference we have here is the villain isn't a white male, but i guess that would be a hard thing to get around in this case. so, when someone says a female mummy could have been so great it begs the question, in this era, why exactly would a female mummy be awesome? just because she was female? that's pointless unless it's backed up with a good character. if you change the gender of a character that means you have some fairly inherent differences, otherwise all you have is a male character with tits, and therein lies your creative, intellectual and ethical failure.
These comments make good points, but the gender of that character, or any other, is the very least of this movie’s problems. It’s more the cliché action movie tropes, poorly written characters, lack of real lore or history, and putting too much weight or value on action set pieces.
A Bottle Of Bleach Well... I know that Ray Lewis’ roommate was murdered in college. I didn’t think a lot of people would know that, but could someone else explain why it’s funny to mention murder and Ray Lewis together?
Dark Universe, in the right hands, could have been a success. Jekyll & Hyde, Mummy, Van Helsing, Dracula, Frankenstein's monster, etc. All could have been great Action/Horror hybrids.
Do everything wrong with The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor! You did ones for The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and this remake, but you skipped the worst of them!
Definitely one of the worst monster movies of all time imo. The Brandon Fraser mummy movie remakes offered so much more substance and fun than this one. Honestly wish this was one of those movies that was cancelled before it was released.
1)Jenny: "Now what's the next step of your master plan?" Nick: "Crashing this plane." When Tom Cruise became the producer of this film. 2)my favourite part of this video was the edit where Ahmanet climbing up the chains with 'You Don't Own Me' playing over it. That was funny.
@@feelthepony She is a female villain written by men. Therefore she has to be "sexy" whereas male mummies just have to be dangerous, as evidenced by the first Mummy (a much better movie).
Brendan Frasier is the one I'm reffering to. Might not be the original. But probably for most people reading this, the first The Mummy movie they've seen, if they've seen others.
In the part where he first meets her in the desert vision I half expected her to turn, smile at the camera and say, "L'Oreal. Because you're worth it."
The image of birds from the genus 'corvus' is extremely divided amongst cultures. Cultures that revered deities that were associated with nature had a mostly positive image of them, while cultures with gods, that represent rather human qualities saw them in a bad light.
l cannot help myself - just went to check it. And you're right! Btw, can l add this to point that english is very complicated language. Screw-me-all-over complicated.
As someone with a passion for Archeology and Egyptology I could already spot two extra sins from the clips alone here, did none of these guys read beyond a Wikipedia page? -Set was not the god of death! That's either Anubis or Osiris, depending on time period, bu never Set! -Mummified... alive... Are we to assume she remained alive while her internal organs were removed and her body was salted and balmed? Muffication isn't just wrapping someone in strips of cloth like some office prank! That's just the last and least important step in the process.
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING. I did a project on mummification in 6th grade, but even i remembered that mummification is not just wrap someone in bandages and put them in a coffin! That is basic background research for a movie called THE MUMMY, but evidently they just wrote down whatever they thought of while drunk on a napkin on a Tuesday....
At least in the Brendon Frasier movie, Imhotep's priests were ACTUALLY mummified while alive, removal of internal organs and all. As for Imhotep himself, I can only assume the scarabs buried with him did a lot of the work over time.
It's easy, Holywood knows only the christian religion where the "God of Death" is the evil one (even if that's only partially true). They do it everytime, remember the Disney Hercules movie? There Hades was the bad guy, because he is the god of the dead...even when in greek mythology, there isn't even a "bad" god, only titans could be bad. Except this one time, where Poseidon and Hera were the bad guys, but they suffered for it.
At around 5:22, CinemaSins missed the part where they showed his left eye turning white when he was lying on the bed but when he got up, his right eye was white and his left eye was fine.
Why would the mummy choose a 55 year old man as her champion? The average life expectany for ancient Egypt was 30-34. It would be like dating her great grandfather.
@@ingriddubbel8468 Well said.I couldn't have described it better. Tom Cruise is almost 60 years old and at some point,he's going to have leave the action genre alone(whether he wants to or not). I think one option for him is to do what Clint Eastwood did and gracefully segue out of action-oriented roles and into directing.

Actually, the real god of death in Egyptian myth, Osiris, was well respected because he was also the god of regeneration

Just like Jeckyl and Hyde
It was tom cruise he had power of rewrites, he just sucks at it.
That was because Tom Cruise had it changed which was why it did poorly, because he was THE Problem.
You're right, the movie seems to never be able to decide if the mummie is an all-and-out villain, or sympathetic victim-turned-monster, or what.
And while Annabelle Wallis is doing anything that good acting can do, that doesn't save Jenny from feeling more like a check-list of Hero's Love Interest tropes ( 'romantic' past, bickering, some feelings still present, gets saved by hero) than a character.
I didn't make the connection myself, but yep, this screams "too many rewrites" .
since when is Set god of death or the dead? he is the god of Chaos. Osiris his brother is God of the dead and Anubis care taker of the dead. This is the problem with modern Hollywood movies about ancient cultures. We think of the Underworld as the same as Hell, but its not.

jared leto would be a better enchantress than cara delevigne, but they casted him for a role he probably shouldn;t have been
The fact that there isn't a 'no Brendan Fraser' sin adds a sin to this video
Edit: actually I changed my mind not even Brendan could've saved this tragedy.
I'm fucking SORRY. Did they hamfist in a fucking Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde scene into a fucking MUMMY FILM?! WHAT?!?!?!
+Tess Bitch (Tessa) I'd like to speculate that, given how bad this film was, they might have to take their time to make the dark universe ;) franchises only work if people pay for them :D
Would have been way better with, say, a Magi cameo, instead of a Magi ripoff. Considering how little Jekyll mattered to the plot, they might as well have had him be Brendan Frasier.
+Katy Lawson It’s been widely advertised that Universal wants to make an expanded universe (as in all taking place in the same time/place) of monster films. So they’re tying in the Mummy with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
Katy Lawson yeah they did
He acted like he cared for the mummy when they had her chained then 5 minutes later he leave to find the stone to destroy it. He also cares for a blonde he barely even knew.
ok
Set... isn't the god... of death. He's the god of chaos. Which have been just as cool. I'm not sure if they knew he was the god of chaos and changed it for some reason or they just googled "Egyptian God of death" and saw Set's name from some random website and went "yeah, Set sounds scary, let's go with that."
Bloof the Poof I thought that set was the good of chaos and the desert
And red! I remember that from the forgotten Rick Riordan series. No one remembers the Egyptian trilogy.
And he wasn't even the god of the true chaos, but rather a god with some affinity towards chaos. The true manifestation of chaos was Apophis.
*Googles Egyption God of Death*
Nope, first result is Anubis. They could have improved their plot with just a tiny bit of Google. >.
Yea if they wanted to include a god related to death they should have picked either Anubis or Osiris, which are gods of the process of death, and god of the dead, respectively.
Brendan Fraser's and Rachel Weisz's The Mummy and The Mummy Returns are still the no. 1 mummy movies on my book. 💕
The only ones you mean lol
"Thanks for bringing me back to life, bro" should have been worth 1000 sins on its own.
You forgot to add a sin for the part where Crowe calls Tom Cruise the “much younger man” when in reality, Cruise is older than Crowe.

This is the closest Jeremy has ever gotten to just giving up entirely on a movie and I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time
I can accept an ancient Egyptian saying the English language is simple seeing as how incredibly complex Ancient Egyptian seems to have been. That is the ONLY thing I can accept about this stupid movie.
english isn't the easiest of languages to learn, they say. it may not be mandarin chinese, but to say it's simple is kind of dumb. it's not about just learning new words, it's about thinking in a different sentence structure, too.
I got the impression that Jenny and Athenat were talking in ancient Egyptian .... They started that way then phased into English once that fact was established. What i think Athenat meant was that her use of the langue was simple, in particular the phrase 'the old gods' which she seemed to find ridiculous and ignorant. So (from what I understood) it was modern western man's thought process that was simple, not the English language.
English is my third language and yes it is easy to learn. If u try to learn arabic u won't succeed it is so hard for u and there r some letters u cannot prononunce likeض and ع and ق

Somehow, they made the Dark Universe not sound super edgy...
*Now it's just stupid.*
It sure fucking is.
Well maybe it is stupid, but it's also dumb.
Jesus, guys. This was attempt to make a brand new cinematic universe and you all are just trashing it.
Yeah, jeez louise, gentlemen! Give them four more movies before you start poopin' all over it. Golly jeez!
This guy gets it.
You guys missed a big plothole. After mummifying her, they said they took her far from Egypt (northern Iraq) just to build her a prison, which they did in JUST ONE NIGHT. How did they get her all the way to fricking Iraq and built her a complex prison in one night?
TVBnine 😂😂😂😂😂😂the same way they mummified her alive yet they had to suck her brain out for her to be mummified..this movie was so stupid
People!!! Remember that the Ancient Egyptian Gods were in fact alien parasites which formed symbiotic relationships with human hosts. Their pyramids were actually spaceships, so a one day trip from Thebes to Iraq would have been a breeze.

Isaiah Garraway actually Set is the god of evil

Isaiah Garraway they think people like us won’t notice

One of the things that bothered me so much was the fact that he mourned more for a chick that he met 2 days ago than for his supposed best friend that he had known for years (and that HE had killed).

That would be actually an awsome movie title and working title for writing an awsome movie, no matter the genre.
and we all would like to see the prequel "you do you girl,no matter what they say"
All her unlife, evil mummy lady had been told to go and find herself a good human slave. This summer, THIS evil mummy lady has her OWN ideas. She's gonna be her OWN SLAVE!
Honestly this entire movie would've been way better without the romance plots.
The romance in the original mummy felt right, the characters grew on each other. In this one it's more like "uhhhhh we need a romance, let's throw in this useless female co-lead so Tom has someone to care about, also make the mummy kiss Tom because we accidentally created a overpowered creature that could just kill him in an instant."
I miss Brendan Fraiser

Universal really needs to give up on this "Dark Universe".
Also, Osiris was the Egyptian god of death, not Set. Movie can't be bothered to do a 5-minute Wikipedia search. (Ding!)
Anubis was the god of death, as in the process. Osiris was the god of the dead.
Anyone who watched the old "Papyrus" cartoons would know more about ancient Egyptian mythology than the guys who made this movie.
Extra sin: why did she even made a pact with set? What special power did she need to kill two people?
The mission to kill, I believe, followed the pact. In the first place, she just wanted to save herself from the disempowering situation, by magic.
Brendan Fraser: I killed a mummy twice!
Tom Cruise: I killed an entire Dark Universe!
Prodigium Agent: I revived and truly established an entire Dark Universe and killed the god of violence all at once.
The ultimate sin is that the movie tricks us by thinking we all wanted Tom Cruise instead of our beloved Branden Fraser.
Coraline Parmentier - Pianist for Peace what the he’ll happened to Frazier? He was so versatile as an actor and had such charisma, and gown to earth.. everything that Tom cruise is not
The thing about this movie is that it's basically a reboot of the original Mummy movie from the '30s and has nothing to do with the Brandon Frasier franchise aside from the name.
looky khan I think Fraiser started balding and Hollywood being fickle and superficial stopped really casting him ☹
HE'LL not be coming back to this franchise ! Now that CRUISE has officially polluted it ! Maybe he's getting a new GOWN fitted for his next earthly adventures HA Ha ha ha !! just teasing you there looky Seems Hollywood just tires of people easily !! one odd exception being this alien chasing scientologist !!I don't know if I should be laughing at that !!

The most memorable thing about this was finding out that Tom Cruise was older in this movie than Brendan Frasier is NOW
Is it wrong that I like the mummy better then the actual female lead honestly she is a lot more interesting and I think it be cool to see the villain win.
I think she was the star of the movie too. And I think she will come back in future dark universe installments as a protagonist if they continue the series
It's not weird. I actually liked her alot too. She was interest to look at, interesting to watch, actually DID SOMETHING and had more chemistry with our male lead than the female one. I found the blonde chick annoying, naggy, pointless and useless, and when she ACTUALLY DIED I went "holy shit. They actually killed her off! Good!" Of course it didn't last... Half god resurrection out of "love" bullshit. This movie is funny in that the actual kiss the male lead has is with the villain to suck the life out of her. Haha.
Star casters I'm hoping she comes back in Star Trek 14 as a lead character. [Boutella not the mummy]
Yeah, I felt so bad when he killed the mummy, that wasn't necessary. He could live with her in the desert.

Wyatt Chartrand not true
Anshul Saini, complete pants because it's Tom cruise. Mission Mummy Possible. Fucking shit with no characterisation just bullshit paper thin objects trying to make people laugh a little squeak but...nah.
I like Almenak but hate Tom cruises character. Who's gonna win in a battle between Rick o' Connor or Tom cruises character in charisma. Making more films, not nesseraly means there's more charisma in the actors quality but playing the character for a specific role in the movie is key, that's why Rick o Connor wins hands down. That's why in my opinion this film is of poor quality, it was shit. Only Brendan Fraser can play as Rick o Connor best. And if he were to pass the mantel piece, it should be to Dwane Johnson, much better than Tom cruise 100%.
It’s not terrible it’s just mediocre. 1999 was better
XD I find it dumb that Ahmanet need a God's (speaking of which last time I checked Anubis was the god of the dead, not Seth) to kill a baby and two people in their sleep. She didn't even use her dark powers to do that, just a knife. She could have used poison or a cobra to get rid of them without selling her soul for dark powers. They say in the movie that she's a cunning warrior, but those actions don't match up.
Seth is the god of Violence and disorder, Anubis is god of the Afterlife and mummification, so technically there is no god of death, so Seth fits this movies version. (i hate that i'm defending this movie at all)
Osiris is king of the underworld and god of the dead
Isn't that also basically the story of Cleopatra? Being poisoned by a snake? This movie was just odd. Real life did it better lol.
I just assumed that it was party of the ritual. Like the blade needed to be bathed in the blood of the innocent before it could actually as a conduit to bring him into our realm.
Yeah, the movie in no way says this. But something's you just have to go with what makes sense for you.
Phonyyx the darts the Egyptians shot her with injected her with Mercury, stunning her peers long enough for them to subdue her (I guess, I mean when she pulls the darts out you can see some Mercury leave the wound)
On the bright side Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weiss didn't dirty their hands with this movie.
reflera603 Brendan Fraser is SUPER depressing now. Seriously, watch one of his latest interviews. It may ruin the rest of your day.
I recently rewatched some scenes with them in the old films and my god, they had fantastic chemistry with one another in those movies. And I'm not even someone who usually cares about chemistry.
Soji SideQuest Yeah I remember watching an interview like that a couple years back. All that luster he had pretty much faded. The sad reality of Hollywood.
slvrcobra1337 Hell yeah they did. Lack of chemistry is the standard in movie romances today. Shallow and completely contrived. It was great how in The Mummy Returns it was explained that Rick was always destined to protect Evy as a Medjai.
reflera603 Rachel’s hands weren’t dirty with Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, either ;)
My biggest problem with their movie, is they seemed to not know what a Long Range Recon(special forces) soldier actually does, or what amount of training they get.
Tom Cruises character would be a:
-triple volunteer, just to get into the program, and have signed a 5yr contract willingly.
- an expert in hand-to-hand combat
- an expert marksman, with pistols, SMGs, MGs, and sniper rifles.
- have gone through 2-3 psychological tests, to make sure he was a perfect fit for the job, and not prone to looting and other war crimes.
- gone through the Full Army Ranger course, and likely cross training with other Special Forces.
- have known that looting in a combat theatre, abandoning his post, and ignoring his standing orders; would get him convicted of dereliction of duty (minimum), and treason (maximum).
And they still wrote him as a bumbling idiot, who just fell into the adventure, as a regular guy.
one thin that triggered me the whole movie: *SET WAS NOT THE GOD OF DEATH!!!* He was the god of disorder, storms and deserts. The Egyptians had the concept of "death" as merely a passage of realms, something that is natural and not necessarily a bad omen. The god of death is Osiris with Anubis as the god of funerals. For a movie that reboots the original, I imagined they could've done a better research on egyptian mythology. Heck, they could'vew read Riordan's "Kane Chronicles"!
It seems happen a lot with God's of afterlife that people assume that they were the devil's of their religions and the afterlife is all hell even when it is not. Hades has the same problem to.
MrKlausbaudelaire set was the god if chaos he is also part pig and donkey
I thought the God of chaos was some giant snake serpent, unless I'm thinking of someone similar.
Thank you! That also really irked me!
@Brandon Apophis?
11:42 "Henry" is Dr. Jekyll's first name, but I'll let the sin slide because the movie never told you and anyone who didn't read the book wouldn't know that.

@BigDaddy BubbaBullfrog screw Dr.Jeckyl and Mr.Hyde they have Bruce Banner & The Hulk lolz
A group of ravens is called an "unkindness" or a "conspiracy". Both are apt to describe this movie as well
MikeThepiper I thought it was a murder?
A group of ravens can be a murder, congress, horde, or unkindness.
Doesn't really matter, though.
Who in the absolute crap came up with these names? Who sees a group of birds and thinks "boy! What a murder or unkindness!"
Maybe they just hated ravens. We all know Poe did...
Do you know how dumb that would sound? What was this person thinking when they came up with that?
"Look, it's a flock of ravens!"
"No, that's a _conspiracy_ of ravens."
"What's the conspiracy about them?"
Unkindness sounds even more dumber. Ravens aren't even unkind.
Well the way groups of birds are named is likely because of what they did or were used for:
A murder of Crows: Crows would destroy crops which could lead to starvation for a town or village so the Crows would be directly responsible for the death of humans thus murderers.
A conspiracy/unkindness of Ravens: Ravens would be used as messengers both by Humans and the God Odin so if a lot of Ravens are seen then it could be considered trouble because of the saying of "No News Is Good News".
This is just my personal thoughts on the matter.
"I swear to God if this movie flashes back to this same desert scene one more time I may have to shove its obelisk so far up its sarcophagus you won't even be able to read the hieroglyphs."

England still uses miles and other imperial units
In England we use both styles of measuring system.

Another sin that's actually a sin in the 1999 Mummy as well, is that they say they mummified them alive. They remove the internal organs and remove the brain during Mummification, only leaving the heart, they should be long dead before being wrapped up and put in the coffin. So technically they weren't mummified alive, they were buried alive.
In the 1999 movie, they actually do remove his organs. He doesn't die because he was cursed to be immortal.
lol. it was literally a big partof the movie that imhotep was actually cursed to never die, and then they took his eyes, his organs etc etc, placed it inside the little boxes the americans took. thats why he was killing all of the americans,, he had to retake his organs and was slowly reforming himself.
So most of the hollywood writers are mummys and underwent the brain removal ... check
Wait, I thought that the jars were needed for his girlfriend, since the mummy got his tongue cut off, then he was placed in the coffin, and the scarabs ate his body, including the organs.
Tutenstien the best movie where a mummy comes alive, also educational about the Ancient Egypt
and his organs still in place, in jars. :D
Tom Cruise is 55? I am thinking there is mummy stuff going on in scientology central.
As puffy as his face is looking, I would guess it is more plastic surgery than dianetic power.
@@nealm6764 what are you talking about Tom never had plastic surgery
I don't know if he's ever had plastic surgery but I've always wondered what his secret is because it's almost like he's aging in reverse.
It’s hearsay, but I’ve heard Tom Cruise totally hijacked the script on this one and basically turned it into one of his stupid action movies.

You forgot to mention, during the scene where they supposedly mummified her, you talked about the eye holes but mumification was actually removing the body organs and drying out the body and separating the organs; simply wrapping her in a cloth and putting her in a casket alive is not mummifying.

A Female Mummy could have been sooooo great. This was a tired effort with no heart--or other worthy organs.
why would a female mummy be 'sooooo great'? seems to me the only reason the mummy was female was to appease SJWs. if they want to make her female because they think it brings something to the character or story, okay, great, but don't do it for woke points, that shit always backfires.
@@ryanbarker5217 There's been lots of female mummies before in books and films ... Including two Hammer horrors and that film with Charlton Heston form 1980. Plus Anack san-ah Mun was both a mummy for two seconds in the 1999 film and a reincarnated mummy in the 2001 sequel.
And she had heart and other worthy organs ... inside of Sophia Boutella's small but perfectly formed ribcage. And, a North African playing an ancient Egyptian for perhaps the first time ever? (1999/2001 were played by a South African and a Puerto Rican)
@@sergiocampanale3882 the problem is these studios race and gender swap to appease an audience that doesn't even watch this stuff. then the fans are screwed in the process by being given an I-gendized piece of sub-par wokery unfit for prisoner movie night.
it's crass marketing that even the alphabet communities seem to be wising up to. if you're going to get woke, you'll probably go broke, but the least they can do is appease the cinematic gawds by making a watchable flick.
let me put it another way: if making bad movies were a crime that landed those responsible in actual jail, wokeness in movies wouldn't exist as main propulsion units. it might be some obscured background commentary easily shrugged off, but it wouldn't be the consuming impetus for how characters are structured (if you call a mary sue character a structure) and how the relationships are handled particularly between male and female characters.
the *only* difference we have here is the villain isn't a white male, but i guess that would be a hard thing to get around in this case.
so, when someone says a female mummy could have been so great it begs the question, in this era, why exactly would a female mummy be awesome? just because she was female? that's pointless unless it's backed up with a good character. if you change the gender of a character that means you have some fairly inherent differences, otherwise all you have is a male character with tits, and therein lies your creative, intellectual and ethical failure.
These comments make good points, but the gender of that character, or any other, is the very least of this movie’s problems. It’s more the cliché action movie tropes, poorly written characters, lack of real lore or history, and putting too much weight or value on action set pieces.
you would be a great movie critic_-- but, DON'T! i please beg, dont!

Brendan Frasier is the one I'm reffering to. Might not be the original. But probably for most people reading this, the first The Mummy movie they've seen, if they've seen others.
Schmidteren it's not related to the Brendan Frasier franchise, which is a relief.
So not the original then. Just a silly action film remake of a classic horror film staring a great actor
Aaron Smith At least the Brandon Fraser remakes were fun. This movie was like having nails driven into your eyes 1mm at a time.
In the part where he first meets her in the desert vision I half expected her to turn, smile at the camera and say, "L'Oreal. Because you're worth it."
I want to thank you, Jeremy, for indirectly warning me which movies _not_ to watch. *-1 sin reverse ding sound*
The "Aziz, lights!" reference was amazing.
5:34 A group of ravens is called an unkindness, not a murder as this collective noun only applies to crows.
so a group of crows is a murder, a group of ravens is Unkindness... man, someone really hated those bird.
TheTrueLeafless Really? I didn't know that, that's pretty interesting
(No sarcasm)
The image of birds from the genus 'corvus' is extremely divided amongst cultures. Cultures that revered deities that were associated with nature had a mostly positive image of them, while cultures with gods, that represent rather human qualities saw them in a bad light.
l cannot help myself - just went to check it. And you're right!
Btw, can l add this to point that english is very complicated language. Screw-me-all-over complicated.
“Honey, you don’t need a man to make you whole. You good girl.” I AM DEAD
Sin Counter OG is back?!
Uriah Siner HELL YA
WOOOOOOOOOO
Let's be real here, sin counter 2.0 sucked.
PurpleIsALetter What's wrong with 2.0? What's the difference?
It was ugly as hell?
Uriah Siner I know
"You good girl"
As someone with a passion for Archeology and Egyptology I could already spot two extra sins from the clips alone here, did none of these guys read beyond a Wikipedia page?
-Set was not the god of death! That's either Anubis or Osiris, depending on time period, bu never Set!
-Mummified... alive... Are we to assume she remained alive while her internal organs were removed and her body was salted and balmed? Muffication isn't just wrapping someone in strips of cloth like some office prank! That's just the last and least important step in the process.
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING. I did a project on mummification in 6th grade, but even i remembered that mummification is not just wrap someone in bandages and put them in a coffin! That is basic background research for a movie called THE MUMMY, but evidently they just wrote down whatever they thought of while drunk on a napkin on a Tuesday....
At least in the Brendon Frasier movie, Imhotep's priests were ACTUALLY mummified while alive, removal of internal organs and all. As for Imhotep himself, I can only assume the scarabs buried with him did a lot of the work over time.
the mummification part made me facepalm as well
Osiris never was the god of death, he is the god of THE DEAD.
It's easy, Holywood knows only the christian religion where the "God of Death" is the evil one (even if that's only partially true). They do it everytime, remember the Disney Hercules movie? There Hades was the bad guy, because he is the god of the dead...even when in greek mythology, there isn't even a "bad" god, only titans could be bad. Except this one time, where Poseidon and Hera were the bad guys, but they suffered for it.
"Always make sure your mummy jr. is wrapped before burial kids."
THat was noice!
At around 5:22, CinemaSins missed the part where they showed his left eye turning white when he was lying on the bed but when he got up, his right eye was white and his left eye was fine.
Hyde-abetes, absolutely genius
Hey Jeremy, this movie really Jacked you up. I do want to thank you for suffering through this, so I don't have to.
Why would the mummy choose a 55 year old man as her champion? The average life expectany for ancient Egypt was 30-34. It would be like dating her great grandfather.
Tom Cruise refuses to recognize he shouldn't take roles that are written for 35 year olds. I would perfer he didn't take roles at all.
"Fuck you" says the movie.
@@ingriddubbel8468 Well said.I couldn't have described it better.
Tom Cruise is almost 60 years old and at some point,he's going to have leave the action genre alone(whether he wants to or not). I think one option for him is to do what Clint Eastwood did and gracefully segue out of action-oriented roles and into directing.
@@JR-ju3kj so true, he needs to retire.
Plus Tommy Boy hijacked the movie and made it all about him.
