Definitely a fun movie - I was very leery of the movie, mostly because I am not a big Nic Cage fan, but the movie was a blast. All of the conspiracy theory goodness you might want, lots of fascinating history, and a lovely document restoration expert to keep things well-balanced.

Hollywood needs to do more films like this; defintely some "out of the box" thinking going on here. I would put this and Sky Captain as the two films this year that were surprise hits for me.

My next-door neighbor came over today to watch the Colts-Lions game because his wife and daughter were watching parades on TV.

He saw the film yesterday and loved it. I said the ads showed a movie that was outside the box. He said that is why he loved it.

To cut the story short, he and his wife are watching our 15 month-old tomorrow while the wife and I go watch National Treasure.

Well, someone "green lighted " it. I guess they deserve a bonus. :-)

I read a review of it and the writer focused more on Cage's resume and talent than the film; I must have been the last person to learn that Nicolas Cage is actually named Coppola and is the nephew of Frank Coppola.
