And here's a question I'm going to throw out there: what, exactly, is it that turns this ridiculous B-movie with a less intelligent plot than most Bond movies into such a big classic with a 8.7 rating on IMDB? The similarly themed The Mummy is probably actually the better movie, and that one is just considered an average action movie that happens to star Rachel Weisz, as far as I'm aware.

Probably the difference between being a great example of the genre and pioneering it. *NM*

I love the Mummy, but one reason why you shouldn't compare the two movies

The latter is debatable, actually. As for the former: yeah, right. *NM*

It's just an illustration of how things can be more than the sum of their parts.
