- With the new Tom Cruise Mummy movie hitting theaters, we figured it was finally time to go back to the Brendan Fraser Mummy movies and look for sins. So that's what we did! And there were A LOT!
May is Mental Health Month, and even though it's June now, it's still a subject that means a lot to us here at CinemaSins. Yes, it's June now technically, but we are still honoring Mental Health Month for a bit longer.
In fact, we’re partnering with Mental Health America (MHA) to not only to raise awareness of mental health issues - but also to raise a little money, too. We’ve got a brand-new Cinema Sins t-shirt in the shop, and all of the profits from the sale of the shirt will be donated to our friends at MHA.

Thursday: A movie not nearly as much fun as this one.
Remember, no movie is without sin! Which movie's sins should we expose next?!

"Terrible CGI"
boy this came out in 1999
Nitpicky
And T2 was released in 1991 and it had better CG
@@specialunit0428 nitpicky
@@mogensl.g.schmidt1808 How is this nitpicky? lol
@@specialunit0428 nitpicking The mummy i mean
*Beni:* HEY O'CONNELL! IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE I'VE GOT ALL THE HORSES!
*Rick:* HEY BENI! LOOKS TO ME LIKE YOU'RE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE RI-VER!!
InBedGamer funniest scene 😂
Beni: He's right again..
DAMMIT!!
InBedGamer lol fav part
EldersMoVX here's a list of the things that Cinema sins requires to not exist in the movie to avoid Sins: narration ads of the companies involved in the movie plot twists awkward situations reused lines and practically every single thing of every movie we watch practically meaning in order for a movie to not be sined it basically can't exist at all
Because practically everything can get your movie sinned
"And the mummy lost interest in him when he saw rachel weisz.. as one does,"
Im taking ten sins off for that
🌋 *= erupting volcanoes,* 🦗 *= locusts,* 💉 *= pestilences,* ☠ *= death angel,* ☄ *= meteors hitting the Earth, global unrest & problems etc is some of the many signs you are existing in THE LAST DAYS [] THE END TIMES as it is written down within the Hebrew Yisraelite scriptures*
the best
Ya id make it more like 15 20 sins removed because she was a 10 in these older movies and then in black widow she's still a 8 or a 9 100%
Ok but you can't call the scene with Beni going through all the major religions a sin, because it makes perfect sense for his cowardly character to practice all the religions so that he is bound to be right with one of them and get into heaven, and Imhotep is being slow to kill him because he is having a "wtf" moment watching Beni. That scene is gold and you can never convince me otherwise.
I truly thought it would be a sin removal
Exactly his character great scene
Sure it's a dumb movie, but it's a FUN dumb movie. I got a huge kick out of it.
Me too.
Fun dumb movies ftw.
That's exactly it, it's a fun dumb movie. I loved it when I first saw it a couple years ago.
Nothing wrong with a good fun dumb movie. Especially a good fun dumb movie with a lot of charm.
Well said,I love it exactly for that reason.
Honestly, Beni cycling through religions to convince the mummy should get a sin off.
I really thought he would, because that was the best joke of the movie
scockery but it's a genius bonus because the motherfucker went, did it, and it worked.
Lucas Barcellos that scene was hilarious
i'm pretty sure magical mummies are also debatable
He's saying that an Egyptian shouldn't be able to recongise the Star of David nor should he be able to understand the language. Also the Egyptian use of Hebrew slavery was very short like three generations max and apparently Egyptian use of slaves wasn't the norm for them, most ancient Egyptians probably didn't even know their empire used slaves.
To be fair the special effects in this movie are pretty good, especially when you take into account that this movie is over 20 years old now
Unlike Mummy 2.
Think about it , only films like The Abyss, T2, Jurassic Park, the lost world, Toy Story, Titanic used cgi before this
@@Njbear7453 They been using cgi for a lot longer than ya think. Just a random example but the first that came to mind is the dream demons from the nightmare on elm street series. But it really gotten quite refined with your examples without question!
@@peeko_luxx2873 ChatGPT: No, that statement is not accurate. The dream demons in the "Nightmare on Elm Street" series were not created using CGI. The original films primarily relied on practical effects, makeup, and prosthetics to bring Freddy Krueger and his nightmarish world to life.
The dream demons, which are entities referenced in the mythology of the "Nightmare on Elm Street" series, were typically depicted through practical effects, such as puppetry or animatronics, if they were shown on screen at all. CGI was not commonly used for special effects in horror films during the 1980s and early 1990s when the original "Nightmare on Elm Street" movies were released.
While CGI may have been employed in later adaptations or iterations of the franchise, such as remakes or reboots produced after the widespread adoption of CGI in filmmaking, it was not used for the dream demons in the original films.
I love Benni’s Rolodex of gods so much, just the emphasis on him being such a self-serving asshole that he will pretend to be loyal to absolutely anyone if they can serve some purpose to him, pay him, etc, and then at the first sign of trouble will abandon that shit so fast. It’s “I don’t believe in any of these gods but if I pray to ALL of them I’m bound to pick the right one”
Weirdly enough, I rather liked Benni (maybe because I have a soft spot for the actor), even his attitude to religion. Maybe because it is classic religious attitude: you pray and sacrifice to gods, and they protect you, or at least not squash you. You neglect them or make the mistake of comparing your beautiful daughter with the Queen Bee deity, and suddenly what's left of your city is on the bottom of the ocean.
It's like knowing how to say "Hail, you overlord" in Chinese just to not get killed in WW3.
Its so crazy how they make such a skeeezy character actually likeable
@@slippytrippy8122 Because he's the kind of skeeezy character that we laugh at for all the slapstick and dumb jokes they give.
@@Julia-lk8jn Yeah, and you can't blame a guy for not wanting to be on the side that seems likely to involve being horribly killed by a supernatural monster. And quite frankly we should have had a sin for Benni translating something as 'forever' and Evie correcting him with 'for all eternity, idiot'. I mean that is literally the same thing so she's definitely being a dick to Benni's translation skills right there.
i know you have to sin this movie, but can we all appreciate how fun this movie is and how brendan frasier just kills it in every scene?
Also, a lot of the sins he makes are big assumptions of "maybe this though..."
I think everybody loves the Mummy. It's cheesy as hell, but I fucking love this movie.
Yeah, the cheese doesn't make it any less enjoyable.
Thomas Jenkins I
Well, the movie is all kinds of sinful... but it doesn't stop me from loving it anyway. Same with Returns and the 1st Scorpion King for that matter. I thought the whole cast pretty much killed it, Rachael Weisz, John Hannah, Arnold Vosloo, and Oded Fehr especially.
Ah c'mon! Brenden Fraser screaming at the mummy wasn't worth a sin off? C'maaaan your killing me here! That scene is like cinematic gold!
"I will give you £100 to save this mans life"
"I would pay £100 to see him die"
"...and all we found there was sand. and blood. Let me get your bags."
Brendan Fraser was the reason this movie was so damn good.
there are so many of his scenes that deserve a sin taken off. like when the mummy yells at him and he yells back and blows the mummy's head off. He's just pure gold.
Hey O'Connell, looks to me like I got all the horses!
Hey Bennie, looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the river!!
Nathaniel Bowling 😂😂😂😂
Nathaniel Bowling that was pure gold. I still laught at that joke :)
I like the bit when the camp fire blows about from a gust of wind after something relevant is said, and O'Connell says that happens a lot round here. :D The film has some nice light comedic touches like this.
My favorite line.
As dumb and full of sins as this movie is, it's actually pretty good and fun to watch.
Say what you want about these movies, but Brendan Fraser makes these movies. Just doesn't feel like the Mummy without him.
The Mummy movies existed even before Brendan Fraser was born.
We know, can you just let us have this?
+Ukaran
So did George of the Jungle, but that movie wouldn't have been half as successful without Brendan Fraser in the lead either, so stuff it.
We know The Mummy is older than dirt (hah! No pun intended...) but this particular series of movies called "The Mummy" (hence why Kyle said, "Say what you want about *these* movies) were only successful because of Fraser's involvement.
+Dargonhuman
There are many movies without Fraser called "The Mummy". The one from 1932, the one from 1959, etc. Brendan Fraser was just an actor who appeared in ONE iteration of the story/movie. This is like whining about a new actor playing James Bond. Those stories/movies are bigger than their actors. So stop whining like a kid, and stuff it!
Ukaran wait? There were I legit thought this was an original movie...are the others actually connected in some way?
Man I miss the early 2000s/late 1990s movies like these.
Sure they're not cinematic masterpieces or oscar worthy but somehow, they're still fun. Right combination of adventure and tickling your imagination with mystic stuff. Good for a Friday night.
Plus a good amount of folklore and a raw, gritty charm.
I'm comfortable calling this movie a masterpiece. It knows exactly what it wants to be and nails it perfectly.
I feel the same way I did enjoy my early teenage years of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
3:49 Not just Rick, Fraser must have strengthened his neck muscles too, because he actually WAS hanged in that scene. I don't know if they neglected safety or if the camera was already rolling and the ground beneath him just happened to give out at that exact moment, but Fraser passed out after that scene. He straight-up almost DIED for his movie. Another reason to appresciate it despite its problems.
i think you mean passed out as passed away means died😅😅
@@roshmimukherjee3733 My bad
The story goes that Brendan kept telling them to tighten the rope, because he wanted to really get the look of someone strangling
That sounds like the kind of BS someone says on a talk-show while plugging their upcoming movie.
@@BatCaveOz absolutely lol
"He saw his soul being dragged away by Santa a few minutes ago!"
My favourite quote on this channel.
Hey Derek Landy I love your work
When was the last time a terrifying monster roared at our hero and his response was to just yell back and shoot it? Badass man
Gabriel Martinez I can remember The Thing. "Well, Fuck you too!"
Ripley: "Get away from her you *BITCH!*"
Gabriel Martinez Willow, troll screams at madmartigan, he screams back and boots the troll off the bridge.
You ae absolutely right.
There are no MEN like that in Hollywood anymore.
Dargonhuman Ahhh good times, keep em comin people these are all fuckin great!
Yep, it is a PERFECT movie. You realize that, right?
It seriously is. It ticks every box and even holds up with 30 year old CGI. Well spotted.
So whats a ''Perfect'' Movie for you? Mr perfect ^^
I am so happy this is the first comment to be seen. Because it is TRUE 😂
My wife never watched this movie. Ended up buying all 3 movies so we can watch. She says the 2nd movie is her favorite one. She would have never imagine how good they were. d: mission accomplished.
I love this movie, soundtrack is amazing, good amount of humor. I can't even think of how many times i made my parents rent this movie back in the day, and afterwards they even bought the dvd lol.
"Some American guy is second in command." The entire purpose of the French Foreign Legion is to recruit and field soldiers who are not French. Given O'Connell's age (and the fact his backstory is not fleshed out) along with the medal bar on his chest, it would be imagined that he joined in early WWI, served with distinction, and by 1923 had earned the rank of Captain (the rank bars on his sleeves). This appears to be roughly a regiment sized unit (300-500 men), which is comparatively small to the fact that the French Foreign Legion was about 40,000 strong at this point in history. So, an American making the rank of Captain and being second in command of a relatively small unit, consisting of primarily foreign nationality soldiers is entirely accurate.
The only unrealistic thing here is that the closest French Foreign Legion units in 1923 were in Algeria and Syria.
I'm glad I was not the only one to notice this. French FOREIGN Legion.....
They say in the movie that they were stationed in Algeria but went to Egypt (against orders?) to find Hamunaptra. The movie gets too much shit for being ahistorical, they put in more effort than most people would care about.
@@skeliton11211 Truly... One of the absolutely minute details is the way they load the M1886 Lebel rifles. They hold 8 rounds in the tubular magazine but doctrine was to load single shots on the ramp until it was necessary to fire 8 rounds quickly (ie, exactly how they were doing slow "by command" fire early in the charge and switch to rapid fire as the cavalry gets close). That's a detail even many firearms historians would excuse if excluded, but they got it right.
YES!!!! I was praying I would find this comment. That is a CinemaSins sin!
There enough great lines in this movie to warrant a lot of reversed points. Also that scene with Bennie flashing any and every religious symbol he can find is a fantastic character defining moment. He's not wearing them because he's religious or largely superstitious. Its not like he thought he'd wear these just in case he encountered some demigod. Its just demonstrating that he's a man with no real loyalty or faith, with no dignity or qualms with doing whatever it takes to save himself in the end.
Awesome explanation!!!
Naota Kenichi "Hey benny!! Looks like you're on the wrong side of the riiiiiverr!!!!" Lol
Naota Kenichi definitely should have been a sin off, not a sin. I think he must have rushed through this one.
That's nice and all but logically doesnt make sense. The fact you wear all that immediately shows you are full of shit.
I always thought it was Beni seeing them as potential "get out of jail free" cards, because he's seen others wearing them. As the OP says, despite zero faith or belief, he's still covering all the bases to give him any possible advantage, just in case one of them somehow turns out to be real, or helpful. He's probably got a pouch with thirty master keys in it as well.
_"I loved the whole sand wall trick. It was beautiful. Bastard."_
Watching this made me realize how much charisma Brendan Fraser had, sad to see how he went through so much trouble since then
He really went down hill, after Center of the Earth. He was a Greek God in George of the Jungle.
He's going to be a lead in "Trust" on FX.
Then Furry Vengeance happened.
Personally I feel the opposite way, but I can certainly see someone feeling that way, and I respect your opinion.
Anyone ever see "Journey to the End of the Night"? Pretty good Fraser movie from 2006...he plays a WAY more serious role. Really entertaining.
For some reason, this movie just hits different.
It's everything you want it to be.
In the end, it was one of the rare Remake films that was great.... all because they DIDN'T fall for the trap of repeating everything from the original movie.
Still Karloff's 32 film is a damn masterpiece.
This movie will forever be amazing. Hilarious, action packed, the chemistry! It’s a true gem of a movie.
For every sin you gave, there was something else in the movie that was amazing enough to take it away.
And, CGI is still better than Beauty and the Beast (2017).
The problem with "The Mummy?"?
It inspired Alex Kurtzman to redo it in 2017 with a really weak... everything.
My Cringe-o-meter went nuts everytime I hear of that abomination.
Tom Cruise didn't help the film.
Guess you can say that Tom Cruise was the reason the remake... "came up short".
I'll see myself out.
PantyLunatic I don’t get it
@@LegendOfKhaos12 Tom Cruise is basically 5' 4". He's a short man. Hence the joke "came up short".
No matter how many sins you find, i still love this movie so damn much xP
True, nothing was wrong with this movie. It was awesomely bad at worst.
Amen
Mummy returns was better
agreed
Me too
It's weird, I'm normally a terrible nit-pick about movies, _especially_ with historical sets, but this one was so tongue-in-cheek and with the actors giving their all that it was just too much fun to mind. Eve haggling over Rick while he's still dangling and insulting Beni for a bad translation job is just delicious.
this movie is a treasure and no amounts of sins can change that
Dear Gods, but Rachel Weisz is as perfect as I remember her. Which is to say, perfect.
Her role in this movie harkens back to the time when films didn't call for overpriced bombshells like ScarJoh to have a really beautiful woman in a role. I find her more attractive in this film than a lot of stars today. Might be the accent :D
I want Brendan Fraser back.
Go talk to his bitch of an ex who sucked the life out of him for 900k/year alimony.
Brendan Fraser is a national treasure and has been mistreated so badly. I hope she gets what's coming to her for taking everything from him.
Yeah, I heard about the prison guard thing. He seems to be heading for entirely for tv, but at least his career is breathing again. I really hope he shines in Trust, because he needs and deserves a little comeback.
Fenryr Greyback who's going to clean my pool then ?
Fenryr Greyback Sammme! I loved these movies and it sucks he doesn't get rolls anymore.
"The mummy loses interest when he sees Rachel Weiss, as one does" Hahaha that is accurate💚😂😂😂😂
Just rewatched The Mummy yesterday. I have a theory on why Imhotep was cursed instead of just killed. Because if he was just killed he could have been resurrected by other means since his soul would've been in the underworld, but by doing this they ensured (or tried to ensure) that no one would be able to bring him back unless they were all killed to prevent it.
He was cursed thats true but the curse was that he cant enter the underwold (and with that cant see his love) and is stuck in an eternity of being kind of alive but also not + the fact that he will forever be eaten alive by the scarabs which is fucking terrifying and I had nightmares of those scarabs since forever
"and the mummy lost interest in him when he saw rachel weisz... as well all do..."
damn straight :P
"as one does" *
tomayto tomahto
I was hoping The Mummy would lose interest in Aniku (forget her name) and would instead want Rachel Weisz, let's face it she's better looking then his dead girlfriend.
Amen!
I was hoping for a "I don't like sand" from Anakin in the end quoting section.
Too easy. Everyone has done that one to death. :)
When TF Will He Do Rogue One?!
+Chris McWilliams but darude sandstorm wasnt too easy and hasnt been done to death...
Honestly, I'm not sure what that is exactly.
This movie is a treasure. It's aged beautifully and is basically perfect. Returns was pretty great too (aside from the Scorpion King CGI) but this is now a classic.
There's a lot of sins.
“Imhotep literally pulls gold out of his ass.”😂😂😂😂😂
At the beginning he said “Imhotep was a cool dude!” Imhotep was a ruthless slaver, brutal tyrant king, raper of women… George Washington and Thomas Jefferson gave more to humanity than possibly anyone else in the history of the world, but the pieces of shit at CS would completely ignore all of their accomplishments and focus on the fact that they owned slaves… But this dude gets to be a cool dude because he built pyramids with a million slaves?
I love this movie. And the second one. The third never should have happened without Rachel, or the little boy in #2. Brendan Frasier doesn't look nearly old enough to have a 20 something year old kid. I hope you do #2 eventually too. Keep in mind, this is from 1999. 18 years old. The cats only worked while he wasn't fully regenerated. Also this came out about 4 years before Bruce Almighty did.
charmedfan7704 I completely agree with you! I didn't like the third installment bc Rachel weiz wasn't in it :/ plus I felt like they couldn't come up with anything new! Either way, I love the first two movies! I wish they could have continued with the story in the new 2017 but I guess it was cancelled and they started a new story
GJ Allure I agree; why make the movie if you don't have Rachel? Basically when "Evie" said "you remember how you saved me from the mummies?" and I'm thinking "Actually that was the other Evie."; she doesn't compare.
Monster Hanna exactly!!!!
charmedfan7704
2017-1999=17 years? Nope.
2017-1999=18 years
Renegade Richard Grayson They were close.
No matter how sins are found, this is still one of the best popcorn-action movies of all time. Also, Brendan Fraser was the best part out of the whole movie. Back before he got his shit fucked up by the marriage meme...
Marriage Meme?
He lost a court case when his wife divorced him and the alimony payments basically guzzled all of his fortune from films because of how ridiculous the amount was. Pretty sure it was a few million a year.
Hence, he fell for the marriage meme and it backfired.
That sucks.
He should've signed a prenuptial agreement
Despite the part with the scorpion king, The Second one IS STILL THE COOLEST out of all of them
“Reach deep into his bag of tricks and... push him really hard” that got me ngl 😭
I've watched this movie probably 50 times lol... it was one of my favorites when I was younger. I can understand a lot of the criticism for it but it's a lot of fun and I'll always love it.
I think by “Blue gold” he meant lapis lazuli, which often has gold flecks in it. The Egyptians were fond of it
Don't forget that there's also 2 kinds of Blue Gold
I get excited when I find that stuff in Minecraft.
@@logantirs9546 whats the other kind
Of course
@@logantirs9546 whats the other kind
I recently rewatched this movie for the first time in probably a decade. Honestly, I was so happy seeing it. Some parts of it are dated, yes, but they.... really don't make movies like this anymore. Adventure movies seem to have fallen out of grace and the ones that still come out are not as good as adventure movies of the past and they also don't feel even remotely the same.
Which adventure movies are your faves?
It's still hilarious
If this movie came out now many people would be offended and discriminated by portrayal of ancient Egyptians as mummies, like its too stereotypical. I would not be surprised at this point. So, flawless or not flawless, I just enjoy old movies. They had authenticity and were fun to watch
@@sabotaje4174 not everything is a social justice issue. Stop trying to turn it into one.
@@LazzyVamples bruh. Every movie now is artificial extra tolerant shit, you can see in every movie scene how producer tries his best to show that he is not discriminating anyone.
For some reason we owned this movie on DVD as a kid and I watched it ALL THE TIME - my favorite movie for nostalgia alone.
Despite the fact I adore your channel, I also absolutely adore this movie in it's cheesy, action-y entirety. One sin point to CinemaSins.
You forget to remove a sin for Hey O'Connell! We got all the horses!
Hey Benny! You're on the wrong side of the Riiii-veeeer!

srpntcls HEY O'CONNELL!! LOOKS TO ME LIKE I GOT ALL THE HORSE'S!!! 😂😂😂
srpntcls: While Jeremy still does a fantastic job with this episode, it's not exactly devoid of lost opportunities more generally; I totally wanted to see him play up the fact that the actor that plays the Captain of the Medjai also portrays the antagonist of "Deuce Bigelow, Male Gigolo"!
Know how they could have stopped Imhotep from getting out? Have the Medjai keep the key with them at all times. Even if someone found Imhotep's tomb and the book of life and dead, they couldn't bring Imhotep back to life since the incantation was inside the book.
What's funny is after the opening battle they could have just frisked Rick for the key and map. They assume the desert will kill him but those artifacts would be just laying on the ground somewhere?
anything brendon fraser does is gold
Best mummy movie of all time, IMO. Anyone else?
Osvaldo Castanon no contest
The original 1932 classic is a contender as well.
not you---Gotta agree with you there. One should never forget the classics.
Osvaldo Castanon I agree with u but I also liked the ones after this Mummy movie as well
Kevin O'campo--- Mummy returns was ok, I guess, but I wish I could erase Tomb of the Dragon Emperor from my memory.
I mean Rachel Weisz didn’t equal an automatic -50 sins?
I mean damn, just the outfit she was wearing in the last few scenes was worth -50 on it’s own.
She really was beautiful
General St. George Amen!
Why would it get a sin for a beautiful actor
She is beautiful and has a hunky husband.
Deviant "-50" as in negative 50
General St. George oh for some reason I missed the -
“This is the French foreign legion”
Emphasis on foreign.
Officers are all French
Dude, this and the second movie are my childhood. I used to rewatch them all the time when I was a toddler...
Nothing wrong with 1999 The Mummy. It was incredible. The characters were likable. the movie was a rollercoaster of action. Couldn't ask for a better movie.
It was OK, it wasn't amazing - more like a 7 out of 10.
and you were a kid when it came out. Ah, nostalgia.
@harrylongbaugh1 You seem to forget that not everyone likes brendan fraser... More people dislike him than there are people that like him. He got out of the picture for a reason...
And he's nowhere near good actors, like Hopkins, Brando, Freeman, Nicholson, Ledger, Dench, Pacino, Eastwood, Hanks, Streep, Bale, Cranston... etc. Not even close.
He's crap, like Brad Pitt, very 1-dimensional with very poor acting range - basically just sort of good looking.
But then again, it's your cup of tea, I don't have to drink it. Just don't imply it's the best tea ever because you like it. Especially when you're the minority opinion.
Don't forget that the CGI was incredible for its time!
@@corbeau-_- youre the minority opinion here lol
"I love the whole sand wall trick, it was beautiful. Bastard." - Beni
That sigh directly after he hears Rachel "mess up her line" while drunk was aimed at my soul considering that I do that without being drunk. also yes this is old and basically pre-written for these people to succeed it is still 100 times better than a lot of movies from nowadays
My biggest issue with this movie as a kid was that the mummy didn't look like a normal bandaged up mummy, but rather a skeleton that slowly turns into a human
I'm a simple man. I see "The Mummy (1999)", and I click.
You are bored like the rest of us...TH-cam dregs...Why do you think any of us "present" are here??
lol same, I'm 14 and I love this movie

Lost it at voldemummy!! One of my favourite films ever, and I have absolutely no reason to defend that!!
Don’t care how many sins you give this one, it’s a classic and I love it 🥰
One of my fondest memories of when I was traveling in europe, and while in Spain put this movie on in the hostel rec room and within 30min there were about 14 people from across the globe all watching and enjoying the shit out of this movie. (It was a hostel specifically for english speakers so deapite coming from 7 different countries we all spoke english) and there was just something so magical about that silly bit of international nerding over this movie
I know exactly what you mean, very glad you had such an experience, doubtless a treasured memory for years to come. 8)
Btw, I found a cool Weisz tribute vid earlier: th-cam.com/video/EdPks-n6XWA/w-d-xo.html
''Voldemummy'' lol
The Mummy is 1999, the Philosopher's Stone book is 97, but the movie is 2001
When an immortal mummy screams at you in a threatening way just scream back and shoot it. Best part out of the entire movie.
Say what you like about the movie as a whole, Arnold Vosloo in a loincloth was fit as f...
Oh hell yeah! Everyone is always all over Brendan and I'm here like "fine, I'll take Arnold, if you insist" XD
One great thing about being as old a film geek as I am, I easily recall earlier inspirations like how "The Mummy" with Brendon Fraser took a tremendous amount of material, including the lead's motivation and the exact same ending, from a fantasy western starring Gregory Peck called "MacKenna's Gold". Check it out.
This movie is a masterpiece - unique blend of comedy, action, cinematography, incredible music, outstanding acting and performances, effects still look great.

The CGI still looks quite good and I think it must have been one of the first films to use full CGI characters.
SAVEBRENDAN
Yeah, Jeremy kind of ignores the fact that this CGI is _pre-21st century._ I think it's fantastic, considering.
matrixphijr jurassic parks cgi makes this movies looks like poor quality claymation
Why would you need kitty litter in the desert?
ding
best comment ever
Kitties are pretty pickey about their litter. You have get the right sand and salt (sand does not catch much fluids) and replace it daily, for thousands of years. Riding horses with weapons is more fun.
But actually, cats would only have trapped the mummy inside, but not kept any humans outside.
@@Halberdin Well, what about tigers? I mean, they ARE cats, and nowhere it was stated that Imhotep fears only our domesticated kitties. So, get a bunch of tigers or other big cats and they will keep the mummy in AND robbers out. Win-win!
"the mummy lost interest in him when he saw saw Rachel Weisz, as one does" She makes great demands on my interest as well.
I usually try to avoid doing this, but...
Quicksand in the desert is a real thing. Air pockets get stuck under blowing sand dunes and can collapse. That scene is pretty accurate.
It's also fitting for his character. An old war vet who has lived out his glory days goes out with one last flair. He becomes part of the desert that has defined a significant part of his life.
Please remove one sin every time Brendan Fraser is on screen for accuracy please.
Okay.

Brendan who ?
"A Hard Day's Night" playing while they're all running from a swarm of scarabs is funny on so many levels. Just saying "Beetle-Mania" is so many levels of why it's so funny.
9:00 Thank you! She says earlier in the movie "they eat people very slowly" so this guy being devoured in 2 seconds made no sense to me at all!
The scene where evie's bro actually pretended to be a zombie made me scream FINALLY A LOGICAL ZOMBIE REACTION
michal sherman I jumped at that scene for years and I've seen the movie countless times; even my cat jumped at it. 😂
I jumped at the part where the scarab beetle crawled in him
Hell they aren’t even zombies. Aren’t they like brain-washed citizens or cult members of Imotep?
would anyone else be down to watch a movie where Leonardo Di Vinci was a witch doctor secretly in love with Princess Diana??
It's as good a movie pitch as anything else. My dream movie would be Dracula fighting off time traveling machines that had conquered the future with the help of genetically engineered dinosaurs.
Preferably played by Leonardo Dicaprio
Watch the trailer for iron sky 2
Reminds me of Nobunaga The Fool, an anime where among other thing: Oda Nobunaga pilots a giant robot and his girlfriend is Joan of Arc, Leonardo da Vinci build giant robots, Magellan flies spaceships, King Arthur rules an entire planet, and Hannibal and Machiavelli are women.
Sign me up. I'm also in for the movie where Socrates was the chief enchanter by whom Don Quixote was plagued, via the use of a time portal generated by the Ark of the Covenant.
This is honestly one of my favorite movies. Acting is great. Effects are great considering its age. The story is campy as hell. Brendan Frasier. Perfect.
This was an amazing amusement park ride! Wish i could go back to my childhood just for it.
"They could have just set up a colony of cats around the tomb and supplied them with food and kitty litter." Food, yes. Water, yes. But litter? It's the DESERT, man. EVERYWHERE is a litter box! X'D
PiranhaCupcake mann voldemummy gonna be smelling like kitty piss and shit 😂😭😂
I used to love this movie as a kid. my dad used to cover my eyes at the bug parts though. I watched it again recently and saw the bug scenes for the first time. I want to take this comment to say. Thank you dad.
You have a good father.
shut up weeb
Hehe. Of course.
River Ramos lol my dad did the exact opposite of this when I was little. It was his favorite part of the movie he was always teasing me with the noise
They weren't even that bad.
One of the best movies ever watched over a hundred times
1932 version is a goddamn horror masterpiece with Karloff at his absolute terrific peak as Imhotep.
And yet the 1999 remake unexpectedly justified it's existence with how fun, suprisingly epic and action packed the film was. Universal really missed an opportunity to do Frankenstein and Dracula in this style next.
How could you forget the part where Rick yeets a chair when Beni is running away?
Kyra V. word
He does what with a chair? Wth is yeets?
angelicone181 it means throw
This part in the movie makes me laugh so much it's so good.
Probably my favorite comment
Imhotep stole the eyes of a guy with really compromised eyesight. Why didn't he keep running into walls and trampling on shit the whole movie?
Luciano Garcia smart
His eyes were regenerated.
because he could still technically see his vision was just extremely blurred but when they switch the camera to mimic his blurry eye sight you can see that you can still easily make out what are the walls and what is the ground. They do play on that bad eyesight though which is why he could mistake evie for anucksunamun when later on clearly can tell it is not her and chooses her to be the sacrifice.
@@guitarman0365 -- Good on you, dude. I've been driving my kids crazy; inadvertently blurting out CinamaSins for years, and I never caught that bit with the eyesight. ✌ and Merry Christmas.
I thought the same thing when I saw this flick.
This movie inarguably has its flaws. Having said that it will always have a special place in my heart. I was in my early teens when this came out and I loved it then!
I'll argue with you, I think this movie is flawless. I wouldn't change a frame.
@@davidward2651 it's definitely a great movie.
When I said it has flaws I was mostly acknowledging that the characters are a little trope-ish.
Having said that I think this is one of the best adventure movies ever made. Just to be clear.
It's only flaw is that it's a remake and the 1932 Karloff film is still easily the best.... but this Mummy was also amazing.
When I was young I wanted to be Evie so damn bad, I studied Egyptology for a spell but then realized it wasn't nearly as exciting as these films made it 😆
it's like defending your cookie jar from cookie monster with your two most delicious cookies
Logan movi
Is it perfect? Hell no. Is it flawless? Again, absolutely not. Is it a helluva fun ride? You better believe it! Love this movie. And not in a 'so bad it's good' kinda way, but a genuine 'this is pretty damn awesome!' kinda way!
true but come on, the first 14 or so sins was kind of nitpicky...and that blue gold thing...that exists.
not to mention that the whole point of the french foreign legion is that they are non french citizens serving france in exchange for either citizenship or a paycheck
Emperor Reign: I have the exact same feelings about "Con Air"!
Todd Ferguson: ...at least the enlisted ranks are, anyway. I'm not 100% certain, but I believe French nationality is still required for commissioned officers. I believe Poland's foreign legion has the same requirements. That still doesn't detract from your point though, lmfao!
This was the first "scary" movie I saw. Really liked it. Watched the sequels. Enjoyed the cartoon. Overall really liked these.
I love both of these, THE MUMMY AND THE MUMMY RETURNS. Also, the black and white BORIS KARLOFF, IS SENSATIONAL.
No matter how old I get, this will always be one of my favourite movies in my childhood 😁
you forgot a sin. the mummy gets his arm cut off and literally screws it back on like a cartoon character.
Great movie, Rachel Weisz is a beauty and John Hannah is a legend.
Omg I just realized he's from Agents of Shield!
Oh my god, how did I not notice? :o
Just saw My Cousin Rachel today. Didn't know where I recognized the character from. Yes I know the movie hasn't come out yet, saw a screening.
Who, in 1999, would've thought the two leads in this movie would eventually have Oscars?
8:58- I wondered the same thing! Also, kudos for the soundbite at 15:56- such a heartbreaking episode.
Also, Imhotep must have pretty strong fingernails in order to carve out these signs on a granite sarcophagus.
When your in a vox veing eaten alive weather your dead pr undead ypur gonna fight or inthis case scratch as hard as you will
Frisbee 'n' Cookies He was mummified alive so I don’t think they actually did the whole process lol. He’d be dead several times over if they did that.
Also, in the movie this is a remake of, they actually did in that one state his organs had been left and that was how they guessed he had been mummified alive.
You forgot to remove sins for every good part. The part where Evie steps over her punched brother, "You're on the wrong side of the RIIIVERRRR", the part where Brendan screams at the mummy, and the part where he shows the cat to Imotep. This movie is campy and awesome.
The part where Brendan screams at the mummy might be my favorite part of anything. Ever. ;)
+Leland Dyer you left out the part with Evie in it, and the other part with Evie in it, and all the other parts with Evie in them.... ♥
Also, my wife's (who is a librarian)favorite part: Evie drunkenly complaining about Rick being so masculine and manly and looking down on her for what she does. Rick then asks: And what is that? Evie drunkenly replies: "I.... am a Librarian! And I am going to kiss you.... *falls over and passes out in Rick's lap*"
Can someone explain the "wrong side of the river" to me? I never could get it - like, they crawled out of the same river, and they are actually shown being able to yell over it, so we know how narrow the river is - so what does the side matter?? Can't the Americans just cross it then and there?? Am I overanalysing it??
I thought for sure that'd get a sin off. I still quote that all the freakin time!
As a kid i was always TERRIFIED of this movie. Like, i couldn't even talk about it without crying. Yeah... wimp. So i never got past about halfway through, too scared to see what was happening.
So now, about 12 years later, i am watching it on Cinema Syns because it takes the edge of the fear which i have just about got over.
And its just like... bad lol.
I must've watched this movie like 50 times from when i was little, such fun times.
Also what I didn't get: Burns didn't see shit without his glasses, so shouldn't Imhotep be like "I can't fucking see"
@Bella Cullen, Exactly what I was thinking!
I always thought that's why he thinks that Evie looks like Ankh Su Namun. Bad eyesight.
Great, now I’m going to be laughing at that scene now.
Always my first thought seeing that scene: "Why did Imhotep take HIS eyes?"
He doesn't use the eyes he takes, he regenerates his own eyes.. It says that in the movie.
9:40 I gotta disagree about Benny. He didn't have all those religious symbols just in case his life is threatened by an otherworldly being who may be persuaded by one of those religions; he doesn't know which (if any) deities really exist and which religion's afterlife is real, so he tries to cover his ass by subscribing to all religions in the hopes that he won't be sent to that religion's concept of hell when he dies. He starts reciting various prayers and invocations as Imhotep walks towards him desperately hoping that at least ONE of those prayers can ward off what he clearly assumes to be a demon.
Dave Redacted it’s funny cuz Judaism was the one that helped, and it’s even more hilarious Benny had no idea Jews in ancient Egypt were slaves and he was totally okay with Imhotep looking at him as such. Benny is the symbol of a submissive person 😂😂
Scammers gonna scam.
@@TheRelatableGamer Nah, Benny's a survivor. Respect.
Guano Guy until he died
@@dillonxubritton8449 He's still scamming his way through in the afterlife.
I laughed so hard!! I always laugh cuz you make such a comedy out of every movie scary or not and it's awesome. Btw I love the mummy movies and there's nothing anyone can say that can change my mind. Other then that great vid.
You’ve actually made me love this movie more LOL 😘😘
Anck-Su-Namun isnt my girlfriend in like every scene DING
Granted, she's a psycho-crazy bitch who abandons the guy who rezed her in the 2nd movie, only to get killed by scorpions.
Including the scenes where she's shriveled, desicated zombie monster? I'd hit that.
Thhaaatts sexist !! (Ding)
