Title: Treasure is left over Junk.
Product review: If you are looking for something remotely new, witty, or original then you may want to avoid the drek that is National Treasure. The movie, starring Nicholas Cage, is a perfect hodgepodge of every action-adventure you've ever seen or read. Start with a sprinkle of Indiana Jones, throw in a dash of The Da Vinci Code, then just two shakes of anything else you can think of and you've made a National Treasure mess cake.The dialogue is so predictable and trite you almost groan with foreknowledge. Cranky old dad? Check. Dastardly villian who's lines were written by a six year old? Check. Beautiful but brainy girl AND quirky sidekick with throwaway one liners? Check. All leading up to a perfectly Disney ending? Double check. So if you're looking for a nice little cotton candy film (you know the kind have big fluff and when you take a bite it all disappears), or have some Cage obession, this will be for you. Otherwise just go grab the Indiana Jones trilogy and enjoy.
