It shot the movie with a handy cam. It's constantly shaking and it makes me dizzy from the beginning to the end. All my 3 kids and my wife and I vomited. The movie has basically no plot, but full of dumb cheesy conversations. About 10 minutes before the end, a couple of mummies showed up a bit and they were all played by humans in cheap Halloween costume. Not scary at all! It'd be nicer if it could use computer-aided scenes. Waste of my time and money and physically made me uncomfortable. I feel the director has stolen money (a few dollars) from me.I strongly suggest you not rent this movie. It borrows the name Mummy and has similar scenes on its DVD cover and hence makes you think it is a sequel to the wonderful movie -- The Mummy.

I don't think I've ever seen a more bored group of actors pretending to be actors. The characters are completely devoid of any sort of personality, charming or otherwise. They have no notable growth as people to make it interesting. Oh sure, the hero is a sleazy, greedy jerk who also believes that people's lives are worth more than money, but that doesn't make him heroic now does it? No, it makes him pretty normal I'd say. I've known more than a few people who behave like degenerates when left to their own devices, but will still go through heck to be there for a friend in need. People are funny like that, but I can't call them heroic.And what's with the strong lady who is hired for "security"? Looks to me like she was hired because she's hot. Not to be rude, but she seriously didn't do anything useful in this movie except drop the tough guy act and crawl into the hero's sleeping bag before the first half hour was through.The storyline is like being fed spoonfuls of dusty Egyptian fairy tales that are obviously garbage. It sounded fake even to me, a guy who knows next to nothing about Egyptian history.Fortunately, special effects were limited in this feature. I'm not a big fan of overdone special effects, but having the camera blink out when anything exciting happens has never been a convincing method of building the tension to me. Especially when there isn't a reason for the camera to be blinking out.But of course the biggest weakness this movie has is the "found footage" style of filming. I don't care how clever the writers think they are. "We thought up YET ANOTHER way to explain having a convenient camera to film everything in our movie! Yay!" It feels more like a ripoff of popular video games like "Metal Gear", with the boss routinely appearing in the corner every few seconds to bark an order, and the hero's voice coming in smoothly crystal clear, like it was recorded in a studio (it was, by the way).Are there any good bits? I feel like I should mention some, but to be honest I'm having trouble thinking of any. The performance was very dry and honestly fairly dispassionate. Sure the actors ACTED angry, sad, in pain and the like, but it just still felt.. distant. Like you didn't have to care. Somewhere along the way the movie just got so cheesy that the viewer feels removed rather than involved. It fails to pull you in.It's not the worst movie I've ever seen, but it really just feels completely unexceptional and easily forgotten. In my mind, this is the greatest failure any movie can have, to be unmemorable. So I'm giving it a 2 to be generous.

For goodness sake, do yourself a favor and close your eyes for 80 minutes instead of watching this, you will be more entertained.After having sat through 80 minutes of the worst movie I have ever seen, I spent the next almost 4 hours with self torture techniques trying to remove any recollection of having watched it.I must admit it was only because Danny Glover was cast I watched it, but never has he acted so poorly. I have been a long time fan of his, but how he was directed to be so bad, I will now question any future movies he is in.The directing was pathetic. I thought this was his first, so willing to cut some slack, but nope, he has done this before. One thing for sure he will never see red carpet in his life.All in all this movie might have been made on a McDonalds meal budget, but directing could have made this acceptable.Johnny Tabor failed. He is now Johnny Ta-boring..........

if it wasn't for Glover being in it i would never have watched it. even the mummy which you don't see till near the end just looks like a bloke quickly wrapped up pretty sure anyone could recreate this with a cheap camera. no idea why i watched it to the end, nothing really happens in the hole film. have no idea how much profit these low budget movies make, only assuming just enough to make there next.Danny Glover is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between November 2013 and November 2014, a nearly $60 million lead over his closest competition.maybe this film was a bigger hit then i realize???with the amount he was in this film im sure he spent the morning in the studio and then on to the next movie. making 22 movies in 2 years im sure that's a pretty busy scheduled. funny how some actors say yes to everything and some cherry pick the better ones, but then i guess hes doing something right.hoping the other 21 movies are better then day of the mummy
