What, Goonies without the truffle shuffle?

Rating: Null/10 (20 November 2004)

This film was only presentable because it took so many things from other films. The Father/Son duo from Indiana Jones and the last Crusade, the childlike scenes out of a Spielberg film (i.e. Goonies), and the action scenes from Tomb Raider. I do think families will enjoy this film, but only because it's a family approved Disney picture. The plot line is predictable, the characters are one-dimensional, and the whole story leads you to believe they were on a quest to make a film with an 'Oh, I'm so proud to be an American' theme. If you look at some of the scenes with Nicolas Cage in them his gut would suggest he's hiding a little hidden treasure himself. If you want better bang for your buck go see both the Indiana Jones Series and Goonies. this film is really not worth the asking price at theaters.
