VIDEO – 4½/5

Warner Bros. digs up Lee Cornin’s The Mummy onto 4K Ultra HD, presented with a 2160p high-definition transfer and shown in the original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio. No surprise but this Mummy movie is very dark both in tone and look, with nary much of color to be seen save a scene or two. Black levels though looked quite good and detail was sharp and well defined throughout.

AUDIO – 4¾/5

The movie comes equipped with a strong Dolby Atmos track that has a good range from the more quiet scenes to ones when the mummy attacks, in addition to the blood and guts being splattered all over the channels.
