Tom Cruise's the Mummy trailer is viral but not everyone's pleased.

Tom Cruise's The Mummy trailer crossed 9 million views on YouTube in a day but this number doesn't necessarily indicate approval.

Tom Cruise's latest meta-adventure has gone viral. The trailer of his new monster movie The Mummy has been watched over 9 million times since it was released early Monday.

This number doesn't necessarily indicate approval, however. Comments on the YouTube post of the video range from 'I love Tom Cruise' to scathing attacks on the actor's screen reputation like 'I had no idea The Mummy was an action movie now with so many explosions.' The Mummy, expected to be one of next year's summer blockbusters, is an update of the several mummy movies that have enriched Hollywood and marks the first film in a series that will focus on the classic monsters - The Invisible Man

Dracula and Frankenstein's Monster

included. Some of those who aren't overly impressed by Tom Cruise's The Mummy want to know why actor Brendan Fraser isn't in it. The 48-year-old actor was the star of the most recent mummy films, a hugely successful trilogy that was made between 1998 and 2008. Why has Brendan Fraser been replaced with Tom Cruise, Twitter asks.
