The Mummy (1999) Review


Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Reviews! So, because there is a new "Mummy" movie coming out this week, I've decided to revisit the Brendan Fraser trilogy that involves a mummy and things that don't really make sense. We kick things off with the first one, a movie that it is forgettable but it's so much fun to watch. There are mostly negatives like the movie is not historically accurate, some of the things in this movie don't make sense or have any logic, it's not that scary and the story is predictable and unoriginal. Another aspect of this movie is the CGI, which sometimes works and other times doesn't. It's funny, it has some genuine humor and most of the time it plays well into the story. What makes the movie good is that you kinda don't care that it's not historically accurate or anything else. You just wanna have a good time and the movie delivers on that. It has some good action, characters that make very poor and unwise decisions which lead to some fun and tense situations. It has good performances, Brendan Fraser is likable and the chemistry between him and Rachel Weisz was really nice. Plus, Rachel Weisz looks incredible. And John Hanna is a good comic relief. Overall, this movie is not good and it has some flaws but it's a fun ride that you can enjoy every time. 7/10

OK guys, that is my review for today. Next up, "The Mummy Returns". Until then, take care and keep on reviewing!

Wind River (2017) Movie Review

Wind River (2017) Review Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Talks with Tudor! For today, I have prepared three new reviews for three movies, one was good and the other two not so much. So let's start with the good one and I mean this one, of course. If you have seen "Sicario" and "Hell or High Water" and you enjoy watching those movies you will certainly enjoy this one as well. And it is based on real events so it has that reality based element, which is going to make you appreciate this movie even more. It's smartly written, beautifully executed, with the environment playing a big part in inducing the viewer into the chilling atmosphere of the story. It's dramatic, filled with emotions, suspense and thrills and it will keep you invested from beginning to end. It has a fast pace and, although it has it slower moments, it does not get boring. On the contrary, it becomes more interesting. Love the cast, great cast and, of course, great performances ...

Escape Room (2019) Movie Review

Escape Room (2019) Review Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Reviews #100%, the place where you can be nerdy about movies! So, just to be clear, this is not the ''A Star Is Born'' review as I promised and it is unlikely that I will still make that review. Instead of that, I have a review about a movie with an escape room, which, I guess, is more entertaining than a dramatic musical. Don't get me wrong, ''A Star Is Born'' is a very good movie, very emotional, dramatic and gripping, with some very good performances and beautiful songs. But we are here to talk about ''Escape Room''. Ever thought what would come out if you mix the style of the ''Saw'' franchise with the plot of an escape room? Well, we have the end result with this movie. The plot is as simple as it gets: six strangers find themselves in circumstances beyond their control, and must use their wits to survive. Which is what you have ...

Mission Impossible 3 (2006) Movie Review

Mission Impossible 3 (2006) Review Hello guys and welcome back to Movie Talks with Tudor! Well, this is what I am talking about, if you want to make a great action movie but still keep the style and panache of the original. J.J. Abrams did it. He combined, successfully I might add, the stunts and special effects with the style that made the first MI so good. It does suffer in some departments, especially the script and character development but that is just nitpicking at this point. The visual effects are awesome, the action is great and fast paced giving you the right amount of time to breathe before it chuckles you again into the action. The acting is top notch with a very good villainy performance from P.S. Hoffman. There are some twists but, sadly, are predictable and a bit similar to the one from the first movie.  However, looking past the little flaws, there is no denying that this movie was a step up, a huge step up from the previous one, setting the bar for wha...
