Title: For the brain dead only
Review: The fact that this movie has been compared to Raiders of the Lost Ark is sacrilege. This is a pale imitation of several different (and better) films made by people who seem to think that special effects make a good substitute for an original story and decent characterisation. The stereotyping of the characters is annoying and offensive. The Egyptians are all dirty and rude, the Americans are gun-crazy rambo's, the English are bumbling idiots (we're not all librarians you know!). Rachel Weisz and John Hannah were painful to watch at times. The most interesting character was Ardeth Bey who only had a small supporting role. Completely disappointing - it could've been so much better.
