National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets

Rating (1-10, 10 being highest): 5

Quick Rating: (skip, watch, watch when no other choice): Watch when no other choice

Story Line: Nicolas Cage as Ben Gates, this time finds his way to Buckinham Palace and White House, tracing clues that will lead to a stash of treasure and proof that his great grandfather is a patriot instead of plotter of Lincoln's assassination.

What's good: The movie continues the cleverness of the first installment, as Cage explores famous landmarks.

What's bad: The movie is clever, but it is not intense or dramatic enough. Indiana Jones series is a better treasure hunt series.

Bottom line: Overall a good pop-corn movie. Not much action but if you like the first National Treasure, this one will not disappoint by too much.
