3.5 out of 5

3.5 out of 5

Key Performances:

  Justin Bartha
  Nicolas Cage
  Ed Harris
  Helen Mirren
  Jon Voight
Movie Haiku:Guilty pleasure continued: another round of fast-paced, sweet-tempered treasure hunting fun, silly but still sincere in its genuine love for American history. Voight & Mirren are adorable as Cage's estranged parents; Bruce Greenwood has a nice turn as "the President" (more 42 than 44); Diane Kruger, alas, is pure Play-Doh this time.
