This second one is good, but worse than first one.

As most of series movies faces, National Treasure also fails to overcome the first one’s success from it’s second movie. This adventure is not as fun this time around. The storyline and entertaining seems worse than the first one. It’s the same concept except this time Ben Gates must prove his great grandfather had nothing to do with the assassination of Lincoln and instead knew the where abouts of another secret treasure, the city of gold.

But still National Treasure: Book of Secrets has a lot of entertaining with good story line. It is faster paced, has more locations, more plot twists, bigger cast, and better one liners. This film would not be as good as any Oscars winners but it will keep you smiling until the end.

Adventure and humor!

The story line is full of archeology, history, humor, and adventure that takes our lead characters to Paris, London, Washington DC, and Mount Rushmore.

But as other Hollywood movies, this movie also cannot get out of Traditional Hollywood story. A bad guy seems very bad, but finally help main actors and sacrifice himself. And main actor never die.

Nicholas Cage - alwasy good acting!

The acting is great. My one of my favorate actors Nicholas Cage looks a little older but is still the Ben Gates we love. Justin Bartha is by far much better in this film, with snappier lines and delivery. His character even develops! John Voight is also better in this film and is in it much more. Helen Mirren’s character was a bit cheesy but she played her brilliantly. Ed Harris did a lovely job as the villain. Sadly Harvey Keitel was not needed. He was great once again and i believe he should have been more involved. The surprise of the movie Bruce Greenwood playing the president. He was superb.

Another Indiana Jones?

The concept is quite similar as Indiana Jones and many people say Indiana Jones is much better. But it true that National Treasure has its own adventure and entertaining. Haven’t you watch this movie yet? I recommend you to grab the DVD and popcorn this weekend. You’ll enjoy this movie.
