movie review: NATIONAL TREASURE: THE BOOK OF SECRET

by Ahmad Harris Khaidzir, While Ben is presenting new information about John Wilkes Booth and the 18 pages missing from Booth's diary, one man stands up and presents a missing page of John Wilkes Booth's diary. Thomas Gates, Ben's great-grandfather, is mentioned in the page. It shows that Ben's great-grandfather could have been a person involved with Abraham Lincoln's murder. When doing more research, the conspiracy takes Ben, Abigail, and Riley to Buckingham Palace(which they break into). It takes them to a book in the White House(which they break into also)and they even steal a page from the book. But in order to see more from the book, their choice is either get elected president or kidnap the President of the United States. Which do they choose? It's obvious. The conspiracy then crosses to Mount Rushmore and they even mention the JFK conspiracy. Could Ben clear his family's name? Or will his family be known as the descendant of Abraham Licoln's murderer? Determined to prove his ancestors innocence, Ben follows an international chain of clues that takes him on a chase from Paris to London and ultimately back to America. This journey leads Ben and his crew not only to surprising revelations but to the trail of the worlds most treasured secrets. Review. Interesting plot although there will be few surprises as almost all of us watch the first NT. Bring your Family to watch this. Action. Drama. Humour. Suspense. Angry. Confused. You will feel it all. You wont be dissapointed. Word of caution. GO AND WATCH AS AN AUDIENCE. Please dont come as a MOVIE CRITIC. Trust me, you will enjoy it more. History is my favourite subject. So everything in this movie evolve around it. No matter how riddiculous it may sound, at the end of the day, it is still fiction and you are suppose to have fun.

citer ni best, tapi masa aku layan cite ni ada plak sorang minah ni gelak lebih2... siap tepuk tangan lagi bila si presiden tu ckp pasal ?????? (dont want to give to much clue, ei?!?) kat ben gates and both abigail & riley mcm pelik...

anyway this movie best sbb aku suka citer2 mcm ni.. genre comedy, action,thriller but in sense of light & easy. kalau tak tengok first movie pun tak pe, the only thing that was brought in this movie is his previous quest triumph & make Ben and his family, abigail and riley celebrities. Therefore anyone can enjoy & understand this movie.

(love that Ferrari!!!!)

I can see NT3 coming soon...

apart from star wars, lord of the ring, pirates of carribean/ x-men tak byk movie sequal / continuity yg best. This one bleh la add dlm list kat atas tu
