Under Wraps

I've seen the 2021 movie "Under Wraps", which apparently was a remake of this 1997 movie, though I didn't know that, as I haven't watched the 1997 version before now in 2024.

Writer Don Rhymer put together an enjoyable script which actually proves wholesome for the entire family. So there is something for everyone to enjoy here, and that made the movie rather enjoyable. I was genuinely entertained throughout the course of the 95 minutes that the movie ran for.

The movie has a good cast, and there are some familiar faces on the cast list, with the likes of Corinne Bohrer, Ken Hudson Campbell, Ed Lauter and Bill Fagerbakke. The young leading cast, which was Adam Wylie, Mario Yedidia and Clara Bryant definitely carried the movie quite well.

Visually then the movie was actually fair. Keep in mind that it is a family movie, so you're not in for a spectacle of ghastly effects. But the mummy was actually quite nicely made.

"Under Wraps" is well-worth sitting down to watch, and it still holds up today. And it could very easy be a movie that the family could sit down and enjoy for Halloween.

My rating of director Greg Beeman's 1997 movie "Under Wraps" lands on a six out of ten stars.
