    A pleasant surprise that is faithful to the movie without compromising the game.

    By far the best video game based on The Mummy franchise, but it still isn’t great.

    Proves once again that the name of a popular movie and even the likeness and voice talent of its star aren't nearly enough to make an otherwise bland and uninteresting game seem enjoyable.
