Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Ksenia Barnes (cresmix) Yes, guys, this show is worth watching if only for the fabulous young actor who just dominates it from the first episode to the last. The story lines and plot can be sometimes poor, sometimes more or less funny but wherever there is Elyes Gabel on screen you just can't get your eyes off him. And you shouldn't. His mummy is really crazy and fantastically anti-social but the actor is very skillful in not making it a cliché and also adding something fresh to the sitcom genre. Give it a chance, guys, you'll fall in love with Nuff and it'll make your watching a bit more pleasant.
paddygarcia73 Not a bad show, but not a good one either. It was just lukewarm; not awful enough to be remembered, which was its biggest crime. There were, in fact, some good episodes (the one with the resurrected palace slave stands out), but the scattered bits of wit and clever ideas are buried under some ultra-low cheap production values (especially for Canadian TV, which isn't exactly known for its spit and polish) and overly broad comedy and acting.If they'd gone for a "Big Wolf On Campus" approach (no laugh track, some actual production value) it could have had a longer and possibly more successful run. There were solid ideas and the fish out of water approach is a TV staple, but I LOVE MUMMY remains a missed opportunity.
carrie-108 I love 'I Love Mummy'!! I think it's hilarious!! And the mummy (Nuff) speaking in a 'proper' English accent is genius!! It really made me smile in the morning!! Elyes Gabel is fantastic as Nuff, and is currently starring in BBC's Casualty, where I can assure you, he plays a very gorgeous character (I especially like his hair!)!! A lot of people find this show extremely unfunny but I think quite the opposite!! The actors act very well the parts of the family who Nuff stays with and it's especially funny when they dress up for a special occasion. The little guy who befriends Nuff is very talented for a young actor and his big sister is a typical teen girl!!
IvoryTower Remember when YTV used to show actual good television? I'm talking about the old school stuff here: Are You Afraid of the Dark, My Hometown, Reboot, Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat, The Hit List (I'm talking about the "Tarzan Dan" version, not the bubblegum ish with Exan, Leslie and Aashna) and even Squawk Box? Now, the viewers are stuck with over the top, cream of the crap: Radio Active, System Crash, The Olsen Twins Special #263475588 and now, this comedic genius of a show, "I Love Mummy." I came across this show one day, and immediately got an eyeful of Nuff, the ancient Egyptian mummy living with the conventional, modern-day family. I stuck around, because I love the mystique of the ancient Egyptian civilization. But this show was just plain ridiculous. The acting is poor. The dialogue is garbage; my friends and I could come up with better dialogue when we're fighting over the remote control. The mummy has an annoying British accent. I'm pretty sure pharaohs did not have Brit accents. The show in general looks like it was filmed in the 1980s. This show is terrible. Nuff is cute, but the show, and the awkward laugh track is BAD!
