National Treasure

Has anyone seen this? What were your thoughts on the movie?

One thing I must say...never listen to critics, or atleast thats my theory. Usually there opinion is far from my own with movies. A friend of mine said I shouldn't see it specifically because Ebert & Roeper said it was horrible. However, I enjoyed it.

I haven't seen any decent PG movies recently so this one was a refreshing change.

The whole idea was unique and intrigueing. It has adventure, some comedy, and the whole idea makes you think. ^_^ Although there was a few cheesy parts,[spoiler] like the first kiss between Benjamin Gates and Abigail Chase for example.[/spoiler] o_O

Meh, thats my view.

I saw the movie the day before it was released here and I enjoyed it. I must say that it conatins a lot of that good old Jerry Bruckheimer humour. I thought it was good.

[SIZE=-3]I also thought the critics were wrong, but hey to each their own opinion. I liked the movie, I really did. It was a completely unexpected jewel. I thought the movie was going to be really corny and cliched. I also didn't expect the movie to sell out the night I went to it. Boy, was I wrong!

I really loved all the "Puzzle Solving", it was really intrigiuing. It was neat how one thing lead to another so vaguely at first, but it usually made sense shortly after. It was definitely a funny movie also, I laughed at a few more parts than I should have (aka I was the only one laughing at times! lol).

Besides that, I don't know what the big deal Ebert and Roeper made about those Ah-Ha! moments. For those of you who don't know what an Ah-Ha! moment is where the character suddenly solves the puzzle or problem on a whim (Sometimes without explaination), because if they didn't the story would end right there. There were a few of these moments, but Gates (Cage) really gives you insight and reasoning along side his ideas.

Really good movie, a recommendation from me. :D[/SIZE]
