Editorial Review: Product Description: From Jerry Bruckheimer, producer of Pirates Of The Caribbean, comes the definitive National Treasure. Get closer to the edge of your seat with the Collector s Edition Blu-ray of this thrilling adventure starring Academy Award® winners Jon Voight (Best Actor, Coming Home, 1978), and Nicolas Cage (Best Actor, Leaving Las Vegas, 1995) as Benjamin Franklin Gates. Since boyhood, Gates has been obsessed with finding the legendary Knights Templar Treasure, the greatest fortune known to man. As he tries to find and decipher ancient riddles that will lead him to it, Gates is dogged by a ruthless enemy (Sean Bean, The Lord Of The Rings trilogy). Now in a race against time, Gates must steal one of America s most sacred and guarded documents the Declaration of Independence or let it, and a key clue to the mystery, fall into dangerous hands. Heart-pounding chases, close calls and the FBI turn Gates quest into a high-stakes crime caper and the most exciting treasure hunt you ve ever experienced, now with a treasure trove of new special features. Amazon.com: Like a Hardy Boys mystery on steroids, National Treasure offers popcorn thrills and enough boyish charm to overcome its rampant silliness. Although it was roundly criticized as a poor man's rip-off of Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Da Vinci Code, it's entertaining on its own ludicrous terms, and Nicolas Cage proves once again that one actor's infectious enthusiasm can compensate for a multitude of movie sins. The contrived plot involves Cage's present-day quest for the ancient treasure of the Knights Templar, kept secret through the ages by Freemasons past and present. Finding the treasure requires the theft of the Declaration of Independence (there are crucial treasure clues on the back, of course!), so you can add "caper comedy" to this Jerry Bruckheimer production's multi-genre appeal. Nobody will ever accuse director Jon Turtletaub of artistic ambition, but you've got to admit he serves up an enjoyable dose of PG-rated entertainment, full of musty clues, skeletons, deep tunnels, and harmless adventure in the old-school tradition. It's a load of hokum, but it's fun hokum, and that makes all the difference. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Favorite MovieOne of my favorite all time movies. Something exciting seems to be happening every second of the movie. Rating: - Dang, this movie is SOLID! (Yeah, so my review is late.)We're all familiar with the blurbs that punctuate movie previews: "A monumental achievement in filmmaking." "A triumph of the spirit." "There's magic in it!" Well, as much as I would love to have my quote on a movie trailer, I don't think I'll make the cut with "Dang--this movie is solid!" But that's exactly what National Treasure is. It's a well-crafted mystery, a gripping action yarn, and the most entertaining (if not entirely accurate) American history lesson I've ever had. Part conspiracy ... Read More Rating:  - A Silly GameI remember playing this game during orientation in college. The seniors would hide clues all over the campus. Each clue leads to another and finally, the treasure. National Treasure is a game of sorts - the kind played during freshmen orientation, except that it's on a much grander scale, involving the theft of the Declaration of Independence. Nicholas Cage stars as a descendent of the Gates family whose ancestor holds the key to a national treasure. None of his forefathers succeeded in finding ... Read More Rating:  - Kind of meh...This has some moments of fun, but the characters are annoying and the action is dull. Either skip it or just rent it. Rating: - A must-see for lovers of history and action alikeWho would not wonder at the idea of stealing a national treasure? Ever since "The Da Vinci Code" was published, much has been said about the Knights Templar and the existence of a magnanimous treasure, sometimes with religious implications, sometimes, as is the case in "National Treasure", just related to pure mutiny. I was never a fan of American history, yet this movie has managed to lit up my interest in it. The story centers around Benjamin Franklin Gates, a role impersonated by Nicolas Cage. ...
