Good clean fun

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 2005)

A semi-sociopathic history buff and his geeky friend are convinced a series of clues hidden in plain sight by the founding fathers of the US lead to a mythical treasure that dates back to the Templars. The necessary pretty girl and ornery father then aid him to find it and protect it.
Not bad! Sure, the paranoid fantasies and pseudo-mystical gibberish gets to be a bit much at times, but overall it's a relatively fast-paced film that keeps things moving and keeps enough things blowing up that the audience isn't bored.
This isn't a film to take seriously whether you believe in conspiracy theories and secret societies or not. It's a decent film for a rainy afternoon and taken in that context it's quite good. "Enjoyable" comes to mind.
