I finally saw this last night. I loved The Mummy and The Mummy Returns but this did not feel like a Mummy to me.
First of all I did not like that Rachel Weisz was not back in her role of "Evelyn". Maria Bello just didn't have the same chemistry with the rest of the cast as she had.
Brendan Frasier "Rick" and John Hannah "Jonathan" were so underused in this movie. Their jokes were not in the same calaber as in the 2 previous installments.
Playing "Alex O'Connell" was Luke Ford. Brendan Frasier and Maria Bello looked like they could pass for an older brother and sister of "Alex"; not the parents. In real life they are 13 years apart in age. This did not work at all.
I love Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh but I have no idea why they bothered with this movie. I understand this is not a "martial arts" movie but Jet Li's actual fight scenes could have been better than what he did in here.
This did not feel like a Mummy film at all and it was unnecessary.
