Title: Great Premise...
Product review: It's hard to argue with the set up. Bruce Campbell is Elvis who has broken his hip and is in a retirement home. His friend, former President John F Kennedy, is a black man. They are about to square off with Bubba Ho-Tep - a mummy who sucks the souls out of people to stay alive. Sounds great! Seriously, as far as these kinds of movies go, I was on board. But after watching it, I'm having a hard time recommending it because the pace of the movie is too slow. More specifically, too much time is spent developing the Elvis character. Now I love Bruce Campbell, and he absolutely shines here. But if a bit more of the movie had been devoted to mummy (...)kicking, with less time spent harping on Elvis in bed, then I think this would have been excellent. As it stands, I was a bit bored by the end and think many who see it will be too. Don't agree? Great! I'm glad you enjoyed it more than me.
