brilliant actors, brilliant editing

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Plot; Benjamin Gates attempts to clear his family name by discovering a legendary city of gold.As is the case with so many sequels, everything that worked in the first National Treasure works here, only a bit less so. The story zips from beat to beat, but the puzzle solving and mythmaking are scaled back and it ultimately lacks the original's propulsive energy. The cast sees some major additions in Ed Harris, Helen Mirren and Bruce Greenwood, all of whom do more w/less, as you'd expect. The returning cast all fall back into their original chemistry and help to keep you invested even when the plot doesn't. The final act is a bit more tense and exciting than the original, sticking the landing on an otherwise decent but unspectacular routine.

Every time I watch this movie, it's make me smile, Cage, Kruger and Bartha whom we knows from the first movie they look good on screen together and they acted beautifully. When you watching it, you may think some parts are not completed, like "how they were getting there?" "How he could did this? it looks pretty simple for that kind of action...." Please don't overthink about every detail, just try to make yourself comfortable with this idea, "This is not a movie like; it had a few Oscar or it's in the most popular 10 movies of the world" you would not dream about it when you got the sleep or would not chat about it with your girlfriend or boyfriend but you can definitely watch it with your kids if you have some, Just relax and have some fun.

This movie is great. The story is very refined, so I felt down to it. This film has many factor- suspense, action, a bad guy, and so on. It is like Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones is full of action scene, but there are many demystification scene in National Treasure. The hero and his company goes to find treasure for his ancestral clearing of name. They solves a code one by one, and I was excited in the moment when those points and points are in one line.Anyway the hero is well-informed. He leads his friends to the answer and get over the dangerous with his knowledge.Everything in this movie is well thought off.Actually this film make you think and maybe even come to the conclusion that history is not bored. This movie is one that you can never get disappointed. If you have not seen it, you should so by all means. This is my recommendation

National Treasure: Book of Secrets is a great movie with a very well developed storyline that I enjoyed much more than the first National Treasure and improved performances in the cast.I've mentioned before that I am not very fond of Nicolas Cage,and I didn't enjoy him in the first one,but for some reason,even though he plays the very same character,I enjoyed him this time around,his character was more brave this time around,.wheras in the first he came across as cocky.The story kept me much more interested this time around.If you enjoyed the first one then you will definitely enjoy National Treasure: Book of Secrets.Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage) sets out on a daring quest to find the mythical City of Gold in order to protect his familys name.
