One of the best treasure movies ever.

Rating: 9/10 (15 May 2005)

I've just seen this movie again, and it stands up well to repeat viewings. In fact, I would go so far as to call it one of the best treasure movies ever.
Originally, I was browsing the videos at the video store, glanced at this one, it looked thoroughly uninteresting at first glance, so I passed it over.
Then an ad came on comparing it to Indiana Jones. Hmmm... I picked it up, flipped it over, it's rated PG and it looked like a fairly soft PG for the kids, who include a 4-year-old.
AND it has to do with stealing the Declaration of Independence. OK, that's it. All I needed to know, I rented it at first opportunity.
And I was not at all disappointed.
Actually, my only disappointment regarding this film has to do with the 6.6 out of 10 that IMDb members have given it. I give it an 8. It's not Indiana Jones, but it's a good bit of fun - with a bit of history mixed in besides.
