English The first movie was a reasonably transparent but cute and funny parody of Indiana Jones with various allusions to other well-known movies. However, the second installment is just an ordinary and mediocre spectacle that is not even that funny. The narrative is by no means surprising. Most of the jokes revolve around the Mummy, which only pushes some of the other characters (who were, in my opinion, funnier in the first movie) further into the background, which did not really work for me. 5.5/10.
