Really enjoyed this movie! Was funny, good story and had a lovely romantic element. There was a great sci-fi theme which even involved Ancient Egyptian culture, really cool. A twist made it exciting and fun to watch. This movie proves once again that good story and great actors are better than modern day spectacular special effects.
