Rabid Nicolas Cage fans have been calling their one true God a national treasure for over 20 years, and for good reason. He is known to be engaged in the Academy’s award -winning roles to a straight deal bin for DVD in Walmart, Cage has an infinite, often suspicious range that leads to more performances than the ordinary human can keep an eye on it. In terms of his family-friendly excursions, the national treasure films stand out because they are fantasy, mystery, revision history, and Heist ropes are a pure entertainment that pleases a crowd.
Casting Nicolas Cage like Benjamin Franklin Gates is icing on the cake only because it commits to the default in ways it can only.
“I’m going to steal the statement of independence”
2004’s National treasure Starts with a treasure hunt that worsened to a conspiracy to steal the independence statement from the national archives. Benjamin Franklin Gates, who falls from a long line of scandalous historians and treasure hunters, believes that the heavily protected document hides a map written in invisible ink. With the help of Riley (Justin Bartha), his computer-Whiz sidekick, Benjamin plots the heist with good intentions.
When his shadow investor Ian Howe (Sean Bean) intends to bear the document for himself, Benjamin lists Dr. Abigail Chase (Diane Kruger) to protect the secrets of the treasure.
Rejoice galloping through historical errors, a national treasure is as unrealistic as you would expect, but it works because the cast aboard the ride is full. Nicolas cage Downing a champagne flute in one owl before breaking a series of federal laws is all the conviction you need to be on board the ship.
“I’m going to kidnap the president”
Following the same formula but turning up the volume, a national treasure: a book of secrets is a carbon copy that somehow picks up the poles. This time, Benjamin is actively clearing his family’s name after a new conspiracy linked them to the murder of Lincoln. His research leads him to a native American gold city, which requires break -in at Buckingham Palace, the Oval Office, and Mount Rushmore.
Using his wit, his historical knowledge, and a willingness to flirt with a high betrayal, Benjamin hijacks the President, replaces pre-Columbian artefacts, and avoids the FBI. This national treasure record does everything the first one did, just bigger and better. If Nicolas cage shout “Haggis!” After slipping back down Buckingham Palace Bannister is not enough reason to watch, you probably hate fun.
