National Treasure 2

National Treasure 2

Another Walt Disney show for the Xmas! Yippee

If you ever watch Part 1 you should know how good it was. I remember when they were showing part 1 it was with the Da Vinci Code. Same kind of movie but National Treasure pawns Da Vinci Code it all it mystery and code.

Now back to the current one, Nicolas Cage is back as Prof Gates.(Shld be this spelling) along with all the orginal cast. The overall effect is still good but it less thrilling compare to part one. But it better to place your money on this one rather than Golden Compass!

Spoiler ahead

What this installment lacks is the amount of clues leading to the next clue and then to the Treasure. In part one we see the begining with finding of Charlet(the ship), then to the Scroll of Indenpenence(which they stole), then to the Liberty Bell(Led by a clue from a 5 dollar bill if i'm not wrong) to get the specs(which allows them to read the message behind the scroll) and then to Wall Street where the treasure lies. And throughout the great chases by FBI and other Treasure Hunters.

In the Book of Secrets, it started with the code word Death, then to the twin desk, the President Book and to Mount Rushmore(where the treasure is hidden). It lacks the clues depth compare to one! The chase scence was not that impactful but not bad. However, I still don't understand why the City of Gold can be hidden inside Mount Rushmore? Should it not be like somewhere at South America? Where I'm not that great in US history. Maybe someone can enlighten me.

If there should be a Part 3, I have a strong feeling that it got to do with page 47 in the President Book!
