Hilarius. Action-packed. Kept you on the edge of your seat. Better than the first.

Fun summer-type adventure film that is lacking in a few different ways, but makes for a decent cartoonish style of storytelling. I love adventure novels and the old-school mystery flicks. This film takes a cue from those elements, and adds what is at best capable acting from Jon Voight and Nicholas Cage. They both don't seem as animated as they used to-- someone forgot to freshen the coffee-- but you'll watch it more for the plot anyway. The movie is a bit too long. Unless it's a documentary, I get a little winded when movies stretch over two hours. Still, if you wanted to catch up with what happened after the first story, give this movie a try.

Pretty cool flick. This could easily be the next James Bond franchise. The story doesn't really matter as long as the puzzles nd mystery is there.

Its hard to fathom that Lincoln's assassination could somehow be tied to the lost city of gold, and that said city is actualy inside Mt Rushmore. Still thats not all this story would have you believe. Some scenes of this movie are absurdly...

Its hard to fathom that Lincoln's assassination could somehow be tied to the lost city of gold, and that said city is actualy inside Mt Rushmore. Still thats not all this story would have you believe. Some scenes of this movie are absurdly ridiculous. Such as luring the President away from his birthday party to go 1 on 1 cave digging just for the hell of it. Not to mention children that enthusiasticaly spat out government conspiriceis and polictical theory at random. Gee kids isnt history fun? its chock full of ancient mystreries and vast arrays of treasure oh and Booby traps. Only in the World of Disney. By the way what's a great talent like Ed Harris doing in this film? I mean you hardly even recognize hes there in between all the word searches and number shuffling. oh wait hes the villain that turns out to be not so vile after all. Who could have guessed? Doesnt that make you feel guilty for misjudging him? shame on you. This is definetly a Disney film trying to teach us the golden rules of life. The plot in this movie, diverges itself from the Lincoln Assassanation because lets face it thats not nearly important enough or as interesting as an entire city of gold. I mean finding out historial truths about the death of one of our nations greatest leaders should have to take a backseat to a greed filled pursuit of fame and fortune. of corse. anyway Nick Cage is back in his role of champion rubix cube solver and embarks on a mission to prove his family's innocence by kidnapping the president, breaking into federal buildings stealing highly classified documents, pillaging the white house, and endangering the lives of everyone around him. sounds logical. The movie is a sorta a quirky fun filled romp for the whole family, even though kids will probably zone out during all the witty banter and historical ramblings. It was on par with the original if not a little bit better. Rent it.
