Save Your Personal Treasure...Wait To See This One On DVD
I can't really say that I'm a great Nicholas Cage fan (can anyone say ConAir? However, he has made a couple of movies that I enjoy. The first National Treasure was fun and different, if not shallow and predictable. However, it was a first take at the idea. That idea is played out. Book of Secrets... Read full review »
Book Of Secrets No Longer Just For Presidents
Though I am not big on history I love adventure and suspense. The first National Treasures reminded me a lot of Indiana Jones with aspects of History thrown in the mix. I am pleased to say that the Book OF Secrets was not a let down.
When Benjamin Gates (Nicolas Cage) great grandfather...

National Treasure: Book of Secrets - An excellent sequel
National Treasure: Book of Secrets stars Nicolas Cage as a historian and treasure hunter in this sequel to the hit film from a couple years ago. It co-stars Jon Voight and Ed Harris, and was directed by Jon Turtletaub, who did the original movie. In a nutshell, it's more of the same stuff from the... Read full review »
"I Went to Buckingham Palace and all I Got Was This Block of Wood"
National Treasure was a surprise hit. While it didn't cry out for a sequel, I wasn't too surprised when I heard one was coming out. I loved the first one enough I had to go see the second. And yes, it is a sequel. But it is still an entertaining one.
Thomas Gates (Joel Gretsch) had a...

Lousy Tequila...
It is rare that I enjoy a sequel as much as the movie it follows. National Treasure: Book of Secrets is one of those rare movies. I put off watching it not wanting to devote a little over two hours of my time to it. But, along came a rainy day and I gave into my secret (not so secret now) crush on... Read full review »
Just as good as the first
We have seen the first National Treasure and as soon as Book of Secrets came out on DVD, we went and bought it instead of renting it. It was just as good as the first one and was everything that I expected.

It's a sequel
I don't usually care for whining, but I have been known to do it from time to time. One of the things I usually whine about is movie sequels. The problem is that many tend to retread the original material and try to pass it off on the audience once again. I found this to be the case with the... Read full review »
Exciting.. but predictable.
I waited impatiently for a long time to get the NT 2 in a DVD since the censor boards here in India usually cuts out one fourth of the movie for "Too much violence" or "Too much profanity". At last I got the DVD and was happy to find that it was as exciting as the first part. The only spoiler was... Read full review »
Raiders of the .... Lost Desk!
NATIONAL TREASURE 2 is good clean swashbuckling fun. No beaten up fedoras, no bullwhips, but you know whose steps this follows.
It helps if you saw the first NATIONAL TREASURE, as it would acquaint you with the characters and the background (and it's a darn good movie). Ben Gates( Nicolas...

National Treasure 2 : Book of Secrets DVD
Treasure hunter Ben Gates Nicolas Cage embarks on a new adventure in director Jon Turtletaub's sequel to NATIONAL TREASURE. Ben and his father Patrick Jon Voight take great pride in their ancestors and their family's devotion to the United States. When Mitch Wilkinson Ed Harris produces a page from the diary of Lincoln assassin John Wilkes Booth allegedly linking Ben's great-great grandfather to the plot Ben and Patrick set out on a path to clear their family's name. Ben also believes that the diary page contains hints to the whereabouts of a treasure map leading to an ancient city made of gold and soon the hunt is on. Tech expert Riley Poole Justin Bartha and Ben's now ex-girlfriend Abigail Chase Diane Kruger join the Gates in their quest which takes them from Washington DC to Paris London and the Black Hills of South Dakota. It's true that the storyline and the actions of Gates and his team--which include breaking into the Queen's study at Buckingham Palace sneaking into the Oval Office and kidnapping the President of the United States--are completely unbelievable. But with a storyline built on true interesting trivia and great locations this film is an amusing family-friendly romp. Cage has some great moments as Gates-- loyal patriotic fair to a fault and very funny as he goads on Buckingham Palace security. Harris plays Wilkinson with just the right air of mystery and menace: is he after fortune or does he just want to leave his own mark in history? Helen Mirren fits the bill as Ben's mother and Patrick's estranged ex-wife Emily a scholar and historian in her own right.
