What Parents Need to Know
About The Mummy
Parents need to know that this film is extremely violent. Men are killed by gunfire, sword wounds, fatal acid, insect bites, and numerous magical plagues. There is virtually no blood or gore and much of the violence is directed toward the "undead," whose bones shatter when struck with swords or fists. In a series of scenes, many characters (including the lead) drink shots of bourbon whiskey. A man stumbles drunk throughout the film and another vocally lusts after the whiskey. Parents should know this film fully deserves a PG-13 rating. It's inappropriate for young children.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the way women and indigenous people are portrayed in this film. How does Evie's strength as a scholarly, cultured, bi-racial librarian compare to other lead female roles in cinema today? How are people of different races depicted? Are they respectful of their cultures?

Spectacular action movie that any teen will love!!
THis is an amazing movie, despite what people say IT IS NOT A HOROR MOVIE!!!! It is an icrediably well done action movie, there is no horor here! It dose however, have issues: 1. lots of gunfire against mortal and imortal charecters, a betele eats people from the inside out, The mummy himself may scare young audinces. 2. Revealing outfits and kissing. 3.Mild language including D--n, and H--l. 4.Drinking, carecters apear to be drunk. Overall, this is a spectacular action movie for any and all teens should see!

AAAAAAAHHH!!!
I LOVED THIS MOVIE! There is some swearing, a bit of violence, though nothing very explicit, and the princess comes out in the beginning of the movie basically wearing a net and we see her bare backside a few times as well. Basically, you really need to know your kid (if that is who is watching it : )

Scary, Suspensful, Scary, Action-Packed, and did I say Scary?
THE MUMMY is well worth viewing. The spectacular special effects and so-so (closer to the good side) acting keep you on the edge of your seat. Rachel Weisz is the best as the heroine. But it's not for the sensitive. Flesh-eating bugs, mummified corpses, and stringy flesh await you in this flick. But the good news: no sex, besides for some mildly revealing Egyptian outfits. Mild langauge like scattered "d**n"s. Violence is huge, with guns, swords, spears, and bug-spitting mummies. But none of it's very graphic. Worth watching, but not for all. Recommended.

Not a "family" movie!
I was surprised at the amount of violence, especially the death of minor characters, in this film. In addition to the violence, there were many gross/gory images that don't seem appropriate for kids. Some occultic elements too. Brendan Fraiser is great and there are some fun moments in the movie but I'm sure not interested in seeing the sequel.

lots of people killed in battles from both gunfire and soards can be gross at points(dead boddies seen/bug cralling around under skinn seen twice/ kife stuck into guys sholder to remove shoulder)may be scarry at points otherwise it was a great movie

a good exciting film for cheap thrills
this was a pretty good movie. I mean it's your typical action movie, kinda typical but fun. I gotta say though i was kinda surprised cause it grossed me out a little. And it's a big deal for me to get grossed out by this because I've seen all your typical slasher movies like "Halloween" and "Scream" and didn't flinch. It's not good for kids though actually even though you feel like your watching a movie meant for kids. the mummy kills it's victems by sucking off thier skin and theres carniverous beetles that get inside your body and eat out your insides. Ugh i still can't shake the image of that beetle from my mind.

Fun for older teens/adults
A great mix of adventure, comedy and just enough to scare you. Fun and harmless.

Um...its not evil
I don't really know what the other person is saying, there's nothing evil about the Mummy. Anyways, its a moderately thrilling fantasy horror/adventure. It's pretty cheesy and isn't very scary, but was a fun movie to watch for some cheap thrills. Good for a rental. Good for kids: 11+
