The Mummy Returns (2001)

Happy Birthday to "The Rock"
I got a chance to see Rachel Weisz in a dark movie last night, but she really shines in this film. I continue to be impressed by her range. It's not a great film by any measure, but it is good fun. Weisz's duel with Patricia Velasquez as the reincarnated Anck-su-Namun was incredible.
This is, in one sense, a family movie, al la "True Lies." Dad (Brendon Frazier), mom (Weisz) and son (Freddie Boath) all fight together to defeat Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo). There is even a kooky brother-in-law (John Hannah) - a real family adventure.
This is the second film for "The Rock." He was in "Longshot," but way down on the billing as a mugger. Here he rises to prominence in a cast, but his character is quite ridiculous. It's something out of a "B" movie.
All in all, if you are looking for some mindless entertainment on a Saturday night, this film can frequently be found on USA. Check it out if, for no other reason, another chance to see the incredibly sexy Rachel Weisz.
