With Universal being Dracula Untold out of the project, The Mummy becomes the name on the shoulders of aspiring starters and establishes the company's Dark Universe.
This succession inherited many things from the 1999 movie, as it began with the story of an ancient Egypt and the cause of the movie's mummies. Next is the familiar character of the set of 3 finds the mummy of a handsome charming soldier (Nick Morton played by Tom Cruise), a scholar who has a passion for studying ancient Egyptian history ( Jenny Halsey played by Annabelle Wallis) and a joker (Chris Vail played by Jake Johnson).

If librarian Evelynn views finding a mummy as a lifelong dream, historian Jenny Halsey sees the finding of Ahmamet's coffin as a work of art. There are still a lot of similar details.
On these old foundations, filmmakers have also boldly made many interesting changes. The first is the sex change of the mummy into an ancient Egyptian princess named Ahmanet played by Sofia Boutella. In order to win the throne, Ahmanet borrowed the power from the devil to kill his father and brother, and attempted to help Seth die for humanity. But the plot was blocked in time, Ahmanet was marred and imprisoned for 5000 years until the day Nick Morton took her out of the crypt. Changing mummy from male to female is probably a logical calculation step to easily bring Tom Cruise's character to the Dark Universe, and also blow a new breath for this reboot version.
The second change is where the story takes place. Moving to London instead of taking place in the crypt as the previous film was a calculated step to bring the characters to Dr. Jekyll as well as prodigium hunting organization headed by him. From there, it is easy to conjure up a world full of hidden differences in human society, the same is true of the Dark Universe. Europe is also the birthplace of the legend of the werewolf, Dracula, Frankenstein ... The Mummy takes place in London would be convenient for linking events later.
The movie combines very well between action and horror elements and also has a lot of funny scenes. There are not too many gun interventions in the film, most of the battle scenes are fungus, it sounds simple but very eyes. Let's forget about a guy with a gun all over him and ready to fire on any enemy, now we have a character character Tom Cruise with the steps that have become brand. Only when pressed to the end he rushed to fight. Besides, the film also invested a lot for the horror. Fear is a necessity for a movie about the Devil, but unfortunately the previous parts did not leave much impression. Adding a lot of horror elements can be seen as a big step forward for this reboot, as well as adding darkness and gloom, in line with the purpose of the movie. In terms of content, the film attempts to naturally incorporate the introduction of the Dark Universe into the battle with the mummies. This is good, but will make many fans of this film feel the new version has lost the substance of the series.
The Mummy 2017 has many great names such as Tom Cruise, Russell Crowe, Annabelle Wallis ... but the brightest is the lesser-known name: Sofia Boutella. The beautiful Egyptian princess and immersive role. Every gesture, even when acting as a human or as a mummy, was shown very well. As for the big stars, it looks like Tom Cruise is a roundabout. Annabelle Wallis's performance and his portrayal of Dr. Jekyll and Mr.Hype of Russel Crowe are really disappointed. Many scenes show the same emotion. Vail did not have much land. If it was a movie that focused on the mummy like the previous ones, then he would have been more active, but now Vail must give way to so many other characters, and the writer felt rather unfortunate when the movie No more exploits on this character.
The film is dark in color, matching the film's content as well as the Dark Universe it opens. The most important scenes take place during the night, in the crypts or in foggy areas. So it may be a little difficult to experience in 3D.
Like the other blockbuster movies, The Mummy also focuses on the technique, combined with the relatively good sound, but generally nothing outstanding. Actually, the performance of The Mummy is disappointing compared to what people expected, but in the end it is not a bad movie, can be considered as an attractive option when the theater. this summer
