Even If 'The Mummy' Is Not Your Thing, the Dark Universe Could Still Be OK

I come here not to praise The Mummy but to re-bury it. Tom Cruise remains a movie star no matter what kind of nonsense tries to bring him down. If he can survive that thing with the couch, he can survive anything. But the failure-to-launch of The Mummy would jeopardize more than careers and studio marketing budgets. The movie is supposed to start up the Dark Universe, Universal Studios' multi-movie franchise starring its monsters of yore.
