Review of "National Treasure"

This movie was showing in Ramsey tonight. It wasn't too bad despite the soaring historical inaccuracies. It was a nice story with nice twists and it would be cool if there was something like that. The big killer is that they made the treasure so huge. It takes a lot of gullability to assume that something so massive can continue to evade all records and historians. See, this is why Indiana Jones is good. He's looking for small things: the Ark of the Covenant, the Indian/Hindu stones, and the Holy Grail (tiny by most respects). It's understandable if these small objects get lost. But a treause that huge under NYC 5 stories despite subway excavation under two major streets being gone forever is just ignorance. Anyways it was enjoyable.

My Rating: 6 out of 10, can't ignore the facts.
DVD-worthy: not really, not a bad rental or tape off of pay-per-view.
