‘The Mummy’: That’s a wrap, folks

Oh, man, the advance reviews are out for "The Mummy" and they are … well, read for yourself.

Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune: "The movie is a pain in the sarcophagus. I fear that it will anger the gods."

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone: "How meh is The Mummy? Let me count the ways. For all the digital desperation from overworked computers, this Tom Cruise reboot lands onscreen with a resounding thud. Epic fail."

Katie Walsh, Tribune News Service: "Falls apart at the end, rattling its bones through a series of shockingly violent clashes with Ahmanet. Ultimately, despite her awesome powers, this goddess is reduced to participating in a love triangle with mere mortals. How pedestrian."

David Erlich, Indiewire: "Obviously the worst movie that Tom Cruise has ever made."

Ouch.
