The blockbuster we've all been waiting for!

Rating: Null/10 (22 September 2011)

I hereby proclaim Nicolas Cage to be the new Indian Jones; especially after that "Crystal Skulls" debut. In this film we are seeing Nic in top form, the all-around star we knew he always was. After some movingly memorable independent works, and some hilariously funny comedies and thrilling popcorn flicks, it is through National Treasure that we see the coalescence of so much burgeoning talent come to fruition.
The years spent previously honing his skills have finally been delivered to the masses in the form of a charismatic hero, one that seems vaguely familiar, and warm. It is a joy to watch this film, not only on the basis of it being an incredibly intelligent and entertaining film, but from the feeling of watching an actor assume the role he was always meant to play, to become the person who was just a few layers deep; the hero.
If for some reason you live on this planet and haven't seen this movie, correct this mistake as soon as possible. And for a bit of extra credit, I advise you to check out the trailer to Nic's next film "Trespass", it looks equally amazing and this is your chance to stay ahead of the curve http://on.fb.me/pchomT . Show your kids, girlfriend, or treat yourself, it's all good when it comes to Cage.
