To much Mr Nice guy

Rating: 3/10 (2 January 2005)

I was disappointed in the film I'm afraid, although I'm a big fan of Nick Cage, and like most of the stuff he does. I kept thinking of Indiana Jones and Lara Croft as I watched it, and it didn't come close in comparison unfortunately, it was more sunken treasure than National Treasure for me. It is hard to think of a big scene in the whole movie, and even the end was a bit of an anti climax for me. I thought Sean Bean's bad guy was too amicable by far and didn't seem dangerous enough ,in fact it must have been very difficult for him to be evil, with Cage constantly referring to him as Ian.When you are walking out of the theatre you are thinking ,the charges they were levelling against the bad guy would probably see him put away for five years ,and only if he had any previous convictions at that.
