Pretty Fun!

I had fun with this one! If you can actually get by the utterly unbelievable way the "clues" to the treasure are picked up throughout the movie, and take this film for what it is, you'll enjoy it.
It's reminiscent of a modern-day Indiana Jones, with lots of little sub-plots. However, you'll find yourself incredulous as to how pathetically easy a REAL National Treasure, our Declaration of Independence, is simply stolen.
Cage is good for this role, but I didn't find myself convinced that he would be the type to figure out some very difficult clues. He just didn't sell me on being the Sherlock Holmes kinda guy. Maybe his past roles have influenced me on that.
Not bad, if you'd like to kill a couple of hours. Be forewarned, though...there are at least 3 segments that just DIE in this film...some very slow points. Other than that, I enjoyed it.
