Accidently bringing it to life, they discover he is a&nbsp;<em>kind<\/em>&nbsp;mummy. Most films describe mummies as horrid, brain-eating, dead monsters. But this movie is special because,&nbsp;<em>its<\/em>&nbsp;mummy is not like the others. He is a kindhearted, affectionate and friendly mummy, ready to help his friends with anything that may come next. Upon finding out that their new friend Harold, the mummy, will turn to dust if not put back in his sarcophagus by midnight on Halloween, the three friends do everything to save their new mummy friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/underwraps.c.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1335\" width=\"225\" height=\"126\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll love the main characters. Marshall (Malachi Bartoh) is a sci-fi, monster enthusiast. Gilbert (Christian J. Simon) is a scared, yet honest friend. He is always trying to help his friends and embraces people for whom they really are throughout the movie. Amy (Sophia Hammons) wants to solve mysteries and get the inside scoop. She dreams of becoming an investigative journalist. Even though she\u2019s the new kid in town, she is bold and is not afraid to stand up for what is right. &nbsp;Malachi Barton connects with his character, Marshall, in a believable way.&nbsp;Christian J. Simon\u2019s Gilbert is very funny; Christian is funny in real life as well. He makes giving a solid, amazing, thorough performance look easy. &nbsp;Sophia Hammons gives a dynamic, well thought out performance and shows the variety of ways she can connect with different emotions while portraying Amy. &nbsp;The costume for Harold is well thought out, with incredible special effects. He looks and seems like an actual mummy.&nbsp;My favorite character is Amy because she is very brave, incredibly smart and she is not afraid to speak her mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kidsfirst.org\/juror\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/underwraps.a.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1337\" width=\"205\" height=\"139\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This message is to embrace people\u2019s differences and to not judge a book by its cover. When Harold is brought back to life after thousands of years, people seem to fear him &#8211; when he\u2019s really trying to help them out. You discover that all Harold wants is a friend and our three friends learn to accept him for who he is on the inside, beyond his wrapped-up-mummy-outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I give <em>Under Wraps<\/em>&nbsp;5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 7 to 18, plus adults. <em>Under Wraps<\/em>&nbsp;is available now&nbsp;on Disney Channel and&nbsp;Disney plus.&nbsp; This is a movie you don&#8217;t want to miss!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you ready for a remake of a spook-tacular and adventurous mysterious story?
