Why all the hate?

So even you admit that there were problems.

Why does everyone hate it? Because it's not set in Egypt, cast changes, bad writing, and an excuse for a sequel.

Maybe it is more entertaining than those movies you mentioned, but action doesn't cover up a forced story.

That's my opinion. I didn't like and I really tried to. It should've been a spin-off like The Scorpion King or shouldn't have been made at all.

I really liked the movie, a good move away from the first two Egypt based movies

Maybe because not everyone has the same low standards as you? Just saying...

5.2 is modest. I am a die hard Mummy fan and I was mortified by the sequel. It practically destroyed Brendan Fraser's career indefinitely. I would say maybe a 4.9

Just because it's not as low as other craps doesn't mean it's any good itself. To me it's pretty close to Twilight saga, yeah that low. The entire idea is downright ridiculous. Ancient China could be involved in certain concepts of witchcraft and magic and that would be good. But a mummy film set in China? You gotta be kidding me.

because other people are not as blind as you and can see it for what it is. just a bad low quality cash grab.

nothing about this movie was necessary, Nothing about it at all was needed. The story makes no sense.

You gave the Happening a 7 and stay alive a 6.

CLEARLY you have extremely low standards. you are easily entertained and you don't mind dumb cash grabs.

right....

Are you freaking serious? A 5.2? How stupid and *beep* retarded is everyone nowadays!? Yes, this movie was the least impressive of the series (due to Maria Bello being cast instead of waiting for Rachel to be free, and some poor writing) but the movie was still pretty damn fun! Better than the entire Twilight saga, the second Transformers film, the Bad Boys movies, the G.I. Joe movies and a whole slew of other films. It's like The Scorpion King (which is purely entertaining); it's a little stupid, but it's completely fun. I'd LOVE to see another sequel, but ONLY if Stephen Sommers returns as director/writer, or co-writer, and Rachel Weisz brought back as Evelyn. Oh, and get a different actor for their son, because his acting was decent overall, and poor in a few places.

But this movie deserves a higher rating than 5.2; at LEAST a 6.0 or 5.9
