The Fallen Ones (2005 TV Movie)
5/10
Casper Fletcher, Giant Mummy Slayer.
1 September 2010
More demanding viewers will certainly find this a disappointing or even ridiculous watch. Indeed, the silly plot might cause one to chuckle every now and then, and most events or aspects in it, don't really lead to anything. It does feel somewhat ambitious, and the cinematography, camera-work & musical score all are decent enough. But the poorly drawn-out characters and the lack of many extra's (for the evil clan, for example), makes you think twice about what it is this movie might succeed in on other levels, if any. The (fist)fight scenes are extremely lame and poorly staged. But all the rest of the movie (including the effects) looks okay. AND... it's got a giant mummy, on a rampage, snatching helicopters out of the air and smashing them against a mountain and stuff and all... A GIANT MUMMY, I tell you! Everybody loves giant mummies, no? So switch off the lights (and don't forget to put your brain to bed first) and have some fun with it. Even if only for seeing Casper Van Dien as a third rate Indiana Jones incarnated.
