"After being unexpectedly dumped by her dream boyfriend, Lucy (Monica Potter, Along Came a Spider) wants to hide away in her apartment--but her friends set her up with a series of blind dates: a shy entomologist (John Hannah, Sliding Doors), a sensual playwright (Gael Garcia Bernal, Y Tu Mamá También), a hunky doctor (David Boreanaz, Angel), a self-centered baseball player (Anthony LaPaglia, Lantana), and a bickering businessman (Henry T ..."
"Egyptologist and general mess Evelyn (Rachel Weisz) discovers a map to the lost city of Hamunaptra, and so she hires rogue Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) to lead her there. Once there, Evelyn accidentally unlocks the tomb of Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo), a man who had been buried alive a couple of millennia ago with flesh-eating bugs as punishment for sleeping with the pharaoh's girlfriend. The ancient mummy is revived, and he is determined ..."
"Eines der immer wieder gerne propagierten Kino-Vorurteile lautet: Sequels sind grundsätzlich schlechter als das Original. Eine gewisse Wahrheit liegt natürlich schon in dieser Behauptung -- dafür sind die Produzenten viel zu schnell dabei, wenn es darum geht, einen großen Erfolg so weit wie möglich auszuschlachten --, aber eben nicht die ganze. Star Wars -- Das Imperium schlägt zurück und Indiana Jones und der Tempel des Todes sind nich ..."
"The box office success of Disney's 1969 classic The Love Bug inspired a slew of Herbie sequels, and, ultimately, this 1997 remake. Though remakes occasionally best the original (consider Disney's The Parent Trap), this one does not. It is difficult to match the talents of the original cast--namely Dean Jones, Buddy Hackett, and David Tomlinson. At least the car hasn't diminished during its 30-year absence. Herbie is still the smart, qui ..."

(Seattle Post Intelligencer) An ancient legacy of terror is unleashed when the accursed mummy, Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo), is resurrected - along with a force even more powerful: The Scorpion King (The Rock). Now, as the fate of all ..."
"Film-Veteran Norman Jewison hat als einer der wenigen Filmemacher verstanden, dass eine überzeugende Film-Biografie oft nur entstehen kann, wenn man sich nicht sklavisch an die Fakten hält, sondern im Sinne der Geschichte Dinge vielleicht vereinfacht oder aus dem Plot verbannt. Wenn die Essenz der Geschichte dabei nicht verloren geht, hat dies nichts mit Verfälschung zu tun. Ein eindrucksvolles Beispiel dafür stellt seine Filmbiografie ..."
"In his direction of The Hurricane, veteran filmmaker Norman Jewison understands that slavish loyalty to factual detail is no guarantee of compelling screen biography. In telling the story of boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter--who was wrongly convicted of murder in 1967 and spent nearly two decades in jail--Jewison and his screenwriters compress time, combine characters, and rearrange events with a nonchalance that would be galling if they ..."
"From director Stephen Sommers (producer of The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor) comes an epic filled with intense action, incredible excitement and stunning special effects. Inspired by the timeless 1932 Universal horror film, this breathtaking journey unearths a 3,000-year-old legacy of terror. Follow two explorers (Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz) as they search for long-lost treasure in the sun-baked Egyptian desert. The time has c ..."
"Wenn Sie eine in Bandagen gewickelte, herumtorkelnde Mumie vom Typus eines Boris-Karloff-Bösewichts zu sehen erwarten, haben Sie die falsche Kassette in den Videorekorder geschoben! Wenn Sie jedoch tolle Effekte, einen coolen Helden und einige wirklich gute Gags sehen möchten, wird Ihnen die 1999er Version des Klassikers Die Mumie verdammt gut gefallen. Die Kritiken nannten den Film billig, wertlos und blass. Doch diese Bewertung ist un ..."
"If you're expecting bandaged-wrapped corpses and a lurching Boris Karloff-type villain, then you've come to the wrong movie. But if outrageous effects, a hunky hero, and some hearty laughs are what you're looking for, the 1999 version of The Mummy is spectacularly good fun. Yes, the critics called it "hokey," "cheesy," and "pallid." Well, the critics are unjust. Granted, the plot tends to stray, the acting is a bit of a stretch, and the ..."

"Circus is an appropriate title for this busy British three-ring caper film. John Hannah is the amiable ringmaster, a gambling junkie and "the smartest man I know" according to all his acquaintances. Which doesn't quite explain why everyone targets him as a patsy in their elaborate scams and schemes. There are plots aplenty here: frumpy accountant Peter Stormare hires Hannah to murder his wife and then videotapes the deed for collateral ..."
