Sequelitis

Rating: 5/10 (10 July 2008)

This tries to stay in the flavor of the first installment of the National Treasure series, but doesn't really succeed. It doesn't fail either (apart from ridiculous threads in the plot, but then again this isn't meant to be taken too seriously so why bother caring about plot and stuff?), especially if you think about the (new) cast (members). Particular one female addition puts some acting weight into the mix, that wasn't available in the first part.
While that is a very good thing, it does stir away from of the better things from part 1! Our comedy relief guy. Not only does he get fewer jokes, but some of them aren't as good as his previous (part 1 again) ones, which leaves you kind of bedazzled and yearning for a bit of better entertainment/fun.
So successful though, that a part 3 is planned ... Well let's hope it will be an improvement this time around (three's a lucky charm ain't it?)
