This is more like Indiana Jones.Nicolas Cage – Benjamin “Ben” Franklin Gates It is not like Tomb Raider, which some have compared it to.
FINAL VERDICT: If you like adventure films, I recommend it.
Funny how anyone can steal anything in a film, forget locked down security. And the theft of the Declaration of Independence was reminiscent of Ocean's 11. The whole set beneath the church looked very neat, but I would have to think all those wooden stairs would have been rotten by then and no one could walk on them. It is meant to be fun, so forget about the plot holes. It is unbelievable that someone could just come up with the answer to these difficult clues after thinking about them for 2 minutes, but we don't have time to let the characters ponder them for a few months. And of course, Gates hooks up with a beautiful woman along the way to help him solve the clues, which sounds just like Da Vinci. The movie could have used some more humor. But, I think the sidekick failed because he wasn't all that funny. Of course, we have the evil billionaire guy who wants the treasure for himself and the funny sidekick. So, the movie starts with Cage finally solving that clue, and the film goes from there. One of his relatives possessed the last remaining clue from a dying Mason. So Nick Cage, plays Ben Gates, the treasure hunter whose family has been looking for the treasure of the knights templer for years. The plot is just like it except instead of involving religious history, the clues center around American history, and namely the founding fathers. I'm sure the reason this was made and released now has a lot to do with the Da Vinci Code.
This was a fun film, sort of like an Indian Jones movie, but the treasure hunter must figure out clues.
