I’m not sure that this aimless, lukewarm take on The Mummy is how the studio dreamed that its Dark Universe would begin. But it’s just good enough to keep you curious about what comes next. - 63
Movie Nation
Action-packed and patently ridiculous, it’s all in good fun. - 55
IGN
There are moments where it reaches out for horror and produces something interesting and distinct from Hollywood’s other blockbusters, but those moments are buried beneath unremarkable and, by the end, tedious action sequences. - 40
New York Daily News
Sure it’s got big, blurry action scenes, a plane crash, and an army of dusty, mindless zombies. But I think some of them may have been the screenwriters, because the movie’s practically lifeless. - 40
The Guardian
It’s a ragbag of action scenes which needed to be bandaged more tightly. - 40
New Orleans Times-Picayune
The core of The Mummy is built around a mostly fun, fast-moving vibe, while its malformed midsection seeks to undermine anything good it has accomplished. - 40
The Hollywood Reporter
Weirdly out of place here, Cruise brings little daring and less charm to the film, though to be fair to the actor, his character's a stiff. - 40
Screen Daily
Everything about The Mummy strains solely towards setting up a franchise in a world which only makes sense to its writers.
