The Mummy marks the start of the so-called Dark Universe (we'll just forget about Dracula Untold, shall we?) but it gets off to a mediocre start. Tom Cruise is Tom Cruise, Sofia Boutella is like that crazy ex-girlfriend you hope will go away - but with more unmitigated power and Russell Crowe is Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde (with a different accent!). There is action and humor, but it never really engaged me - and they try way too hard to push this franchise.
