There are irritating things about the movie - Tom Cruise too old for his character, the female lead isn't up to the job (how about giving one of his old time leading ladies a gig), stock action, all the Dark Universe set up. But it's not the main problem.
The main problem is clear - Tom Cruise could be cut out of the movie. There's no connection between him and the mummy. He let her out but... so what?
If Tom had been the descendant of her old love and the mummy did it for love, you would have had a hit.
The film has no DNA.
I felt for the production people.
