7 Recent Movies With Gaping Plotholes You Never Noticed

The Mummy was given a bumpy ride from fans and critics when it launched this year, not unlike that plane Princess Ahmanet brings down in England at exactly the right location to retrieve the mystical dagger she was seeking.

It's sequences like this that inspired the backlash, because there's no way the titular villainess could have known the scared blade was hidden in an abbey at that location, because it was placed there thousands of years after her imprisonment.

Let's just say one of Ahmanet's supernatural powers is a radar-like ability that allowed her to pinpoint the dagger's exact position. If that was the case, she should have known the ruby in its hilt had been removed and placed at a separate location.

This is just one of the gaps in logic which saw The Mummy come unravelled upon its arrival in theatres, condemning the Dark Universe to a false start.
