DVD Synopsis

In this adventure-filled sequel to the 2004 blockbuster National Treasure, Nicolas Cage reprises his role as artifact hunter and archaeologist extraordinaire Ben Franklin Gates. In this outing, Gates learns of his own family's implication in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln by John Wilkes Booth. Gates must then locate an elusive diary, not only to clear his family's name, but to unearth and connect several secrets, buried within the book, that point to a massive, global conspiracy. The film co-stars Jon Voight, Harvey Keitel, and Helen Mirren as Ben's mother. Jerry Bruckheimer returns as producer. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide

Another exciting adventure, chasing down a bit of history. Watching this is kind of like watching a James Bond flick, without all the completely "over-the-top" stuff (that I, personally, find annoying and distracting). If you enjoy routing for the "good guys," with all of the accompanying suspense and anticipation of "will they win," you'll love this movie. I loved it, it's exciting enough to hold one's interest without being too intense or discouraging!

All the main characters from the first movie have returned with a host of problems: strained if not broken romances, failed book launches and IRS repossessions -- and a severe accusation against the Gates family name, a black market dealer implicating Ben's great-great-grandfather as a (if not the) mastermind behind Abraham Lincoln's assassination.

So begins a fast-paced and humorous, nail-biting adventure (around our nation, into Europe and back again) to clear the name of Thomas Gates. In these efforts, Ben & Company uncover secret clues leading to a long fabled city of gold.

This is a wonderful family movie with sweeping action for the kids and substance for the adults, a true hold-your-breath roller-coaster ride of a film.

I greatly enjoyed this movie. This is a keeper, for sure.
