a treasure in deed

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 2004)

National Treasure is one I could watch again and again. It has a gripping story line fabulous characters and a lovely mix of action, mystery and suspense, but it was the play on the history, of the fonding fathers that gave it something new to offer the traditional action flick. Cage is sexy, charming, and lovable as the all American patriotic hero, Ben Gates. Justin Bartha gives us several laughs as the lovable Riley, and his friendship with Ben makes the movie that much more enjoyable. Sean Bean is such a gooood baddie, too. And it is always nice to have such talents as Jon Voight and Harvey Keitel in a movie. National Treasure is gripping from start to finish. And as far as action films go, I think it really nailed it.
