National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007) [PG]-- W.I.P. Scale™ Rating: $11.75
Review-lite: Jon Turteltaub's National Treasure: Book of Secrets begins with an accusation that treasure hunter Ben Gates (Nicholas Cage) actually is the descendant of the man who planned the assassination of Abraham Lincoln forcing him to reassemble his team of treasure hunters: Abigail Chase (Dian Kruger), Riley Poole (Justin Bartha), and his dad (Jon Voight) for a trans-Atlantic hunt for clues to prove his great grandfather's innocence. Unfortunately, as well as being less 'magical' than the original, this film suffers from some inexplicable elements in the plot that are never resolved and too much time spent trying to replicate the original film--nearly always the recipe for a bland, mostly forgettable sequel. Despite Producer Jerry Bruckheimer's Midas touch and the addition of Helen Mirren to the cast as Ben's mother, National Treasure: Book of Secrets could definitely be saved for the DVD or Download wish list at this time.
