Viewing Notes

Hope there’s a mummy… there is. Sorta.

This had the potential to be one of the all-timers w/the Egyptian backdrop and mystery around discovering a pharaoh’s tomb. Sadly (outside of a creative murder/hide the body bit) it’s rather flat overall. Also bc of the change of location Chan is on his own. No Keye Luke.
