National Treasure: Book of Secrets
So unbelievably stupid, it makes Scooby Doo look like a documentary.
Stupid??!!!??? How can you say that? It's very clear:
The queen of England somehow knew that an Aztec type culture built a city of gold in South Dakota, for some reason. The Queen then told a Southern General about the gold. But She did it in a code. That General then gave the code to John Wilkes Booth, who was having the code broken, but said "hold on, there's this little thing I have to take care of first." After shooting Lincoln, and being separated from the code, Booth's story comes to an end. But WAIT! It turns out that somebody wrote a secret code on the paper, for some reason. That code says that specific Frenchman, who doesn't seem connected to the story in any way, will leave a clue to something or other, but that he'll do it twenty years in the future. Now the Frenchman's clue is that the Queen of England put two pieces of another clue into two desks. One of those desks she gives to the President of the United States, but she doesn't tell the president that he has it, for some reason. Never mind that she was backing the South the first time she gave out clues. And why wouldn't the Queen simply tell the president that she knows where the city of gold is? And why didn't the British, who controlled Canada at the time as part of their empire, simply send an expedidtion to gold for themselves? And why do people in these movies keep dying without telling anyone that they know the whereabouts of enourmous treasures? And what's this about the president have a book where we keep a list of secrets, but that he doesn't share with anyone, for some reason? And why does Harvey Keitel seem to know that the book exists? And...
To go along with what Captain Plasmastic said, I believe National Treasure II is one of the most awesomest movies ever made and contains a crystal clear and plausible story. My friend Joe loved it too. Sure, he's 9 years old, but he knows quality films when he sees them.
