6/10
Silly, but fairly fun

Warning: Spoilers
Two fortune hunters come across a sealed tomb that contains an evil and powerful mummy who gets awakened. The pair must stop said mummy before it brings about the end of mankind.

Directors Khu and Justin Price relate the enjoyably hokey'n'dopey story at a constant pace, maintain a generally serious tone throughout, and stage the action and mummy attack scenes with some flair. Moreover, Carter and Brittany Goodwin make for likeable leads; their frequent bickering is a solid source of amusement and they display a charming natural chemistry. The cruddy cheapo (far from) special CGI effects are good for a few unintentional laughs. However, the climax totally fizzles with a limp noodle ending that's an obvious set-up for a possible sequel. That said, this flick has a certain clunky sincerity to it that's hard to dislike. A pretty decent diversion.
