a5c7b9f00b A historian races to find the legendary Templar Treasure before a team of mercenaries. Since childhood, Benjamin Franklin Gates has known that he is decended from a long line of people whose job is to guard a treasure hidden by the Founding Fathers, who hid clues to its whereabouts in the country&#39;s currency and on the back of the Declaration of Independence. Now, he has learned of a plot to steal the Declaration, and has only one option: steal it himself. Even if he pulls off this monumental task, keeping the treasure safe is still going to be incredibly hard, especially since the FBI has also gotten wind of the scheme. Research. Plot. Understand. Decipher. Listen. FULL SPEED AHEAD! That is the style of this movie, which is truly one of the greatest caper movies of all time. For all of you out there who have not yet seen this movie, it is about Ben Gates, played by Nicolas Cage in a winning performancea treasure hunter who is seeking a treasure beyond all of his dreams, imaginations, and thoughts, a treasure that has been hidden for centuries. But there is one problem: the clue to finding the treasure is on the back of the Declaration of Independence- but in invisible ink! The plot carries its own weight from there on. Nicolas Cage is the hero, Justin Bartha is the weird geek along for comedic relief, Diane Kruger is the very attractive female counterpart to Gates, Voight is the never believing father, Mr. Gates, Keitel is the detective who is determined to make sure that somebody goes to jail for this whole mess, Bean is Ian who was once Gates friend, but, because of greed, he becomes the badguy not long after the movie has started. The viewer, when first watching this movie, may think that Bean is at a disadvantage, since he has ditched Gates and Riley. But not so. Bean is very smart in his own inventive and original way. However, he is notsmartGates. That is why Gates is always one step ahead of him. Sure, this movie does have clichés, but who cares? I do not think it is a copy off of the Da Vinci Code or Indiana Jones. Something cannot be called a copy off of something else just because they have some things in common with each other. Those things are similarities, not copies. Besides, even if the similarities are too good to be true, I do not mind. The reason for this is thatlonga movie is good and can hold my attention, I will suspend my disbelief and act like the similarities are not even there. After a while, I forget all about the similarities and clichés, and just sit down and watch a good action/adventure movie. This movie was a nice surprise. The story is very entertaining, things are explained well and it might even leave you wanting to do a little research on your own. Cage was his dry humorous self and the cast of characters around him was well matched. It has humor and suspense and just a bit of danger. It would be hard to get tired of this movie. All of the places they visit are real and they make it sound so plausible. It is nice to see a good, clean adventure flick. I can say that I have seen this movie at least 5 time or more. I always stop to watch it even when I have it on just for background noise while I am hanging out around the house. I would recommend this movie to anyone, unless you hate US history or hate Nicholas Cage. Other than that I think you would really enjoy National Treasure. Isn't any fun at all, which is ultimately the most damning thing you can say about a Bruckheimer movie. When Ben Gates (<a href="/name/nm0000115/">Nicolas Cage</a>) was a young boy, his grandpa, John Adams Gates (<a href="/name/nm0001626/">Christopher Plummer</a>), told him how, in 1832, Charles Carroll, the last surviving signer of the United States Declaration of Independence, entrusted his stable boy, Ben&#39;s great great grandfather Thomas Gates, with the first in a series of clues that supposedly led to a vast treasure amassed by the Knights Templar. Although Ben&#39;s own father, Patrick Gates (<a href="/name/nm0000685/">Jon Voight</a>), does not believe in the legend, Ben swore to take upon himself the duty of the Knights Templar, the Freemasons and the family Gates, and has spent his entire life trying to figure out the meaning of the clue: The secret lies with Charlotte. Finally,an adult, Ben has found Charlotte and begins on his quest for the treasure. National Treasure is a Disney Production that was co-written by numerous screenwriters, including Jim Kouf, Marianne and Cormac Wibberley, Oren Aviv, Charles Segars, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio. A sequel, <a href="/title/tt0465234/">National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007)</a>, followed in 2007. <a href="/title/tt1197627/">National Treasure 3</a> is currently in development with no release date known. The signers of the Declaration of Independence, some of whom were also members of the Freemasons, a reformation of the Knights Templar, hid the treasure during the American Revolution [1775-1783] to keep the British from getting their hands on it. Charlotte turns out to be The Charlotte, a sunken vessel in the Arctic Circle. Inside The Charlotte, Ben finds a meerschaum pipe bearing the second clue: The legend writ, the stain effected, the key in Silence undetected. Fifty-five in iron pen, Mr. Matlack can&#39;t offend. Ben deciphers the second clue to mean that the 55 signers of the Declaration of Independence hid the message invisibly on the back of the document. Ben must now inspect the Declaration, one of the most important historical documents in the United States. At the same time, Ben&#39;s ex-colleague, Ian Howe (<a href="/name/nm0000293/">Sean Bean</a>), has decided to steal the document and find the treasure for himself. Part of the experience in watching this movie is to try for oneself to decipher the clues and guess where they might lead, so posting that information would be a disservice. Suffice to say that the third clue presents an Ottendorf cipher that, translated, reads: The vision to see the treasured past comesthe timely shadow crosses in front of the house of Pass and Stow. The fourth clue is a pair of 3D spectacles. The fifth clue reads: Heere at the wall. The sixth clue revealed is Beneath Parkington Lane. Those schooled in American history might be able to figure out the clues for themselves. An Ottendorf cipher consists of three codes, i.e., 2-4-6, that corresponds to a random book or newspaper article. The first number corresponds to the page, the second number to the line on the page, and the third number to the letter/word in that line. Status quo refers to the way things are going at the present time, that is, the current status of things. If something changes, e.g., the power shifts, then the status quo also changes. After escaping from the treasure room, Ben contacts FBI agent Peter Sadusky (<a href="/name/nm0000172/">Harvey Keitel</a>) to return the Declaration. As they are attempting to work out a compromise, Ben sees from Sadusky&#39;s ring that he is a Freemason. They agree to give the treasure to &quot;the people&quot; in return for Abigail having no repercussions on her record, Riley being credited for the find, and Ben not having to go to prison. &quot;Someone has to go to prison,&quot; Sadusky says, so Ben leads them to Boston where Ian is attempting to break into the Old North Church. Ian is arrested on charges of kidnapping, attempted murder, and trespassing on government property. In the final scene, Ben, Abigail, and Riley stroll in the garden of their estate purchased with the finders fee that they received after turning over the Declaration and the treasure. Some movies that also involve jumping through various hoops to find a valuable treasure include (1) <a href="/title/tt0033870/">The Maltese Falcon (1941)</a> (1941), in which a detective searches for a priceless statue, (2) <a href="/title/tt0079240/">The First Great Train Robbery (1978)</a> (1979), in which master criminals attempt to steal a gold shipment from a moving train, (3) <a href="/title/tt0137494/">Entrapment (1999)</a> (1999), in which two thieves plot to steal 8 billion dollars at the stroke of the transition from 1999 to 2000, (4) <a href="/title/tt0382625/">The Da Vinci Code (2006)</a> (2006), in which a symbologist Robert Langdon tries to unravel a chain of cryptic codes that could change the face of religious history, (5) <a href="/title/tt0808151/">Angels &amp; Demons (2009)</a> (2009), in which Langdon follows a series of clues to find a destructive weapon that could level the Vatican, and (6) <a href="/title/tt3062096/">Inferno (2016)</a> (2016), in which Langdon is drawn by a trail of clues linked to Dante Alighieri [1265-1321]. Also of note are any of the Indiana Jones movies, i.e., <a href="/title/tt0082971/">Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)</a> (1981), <a href="/title/tt0087469/">Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)</a> (1984), <a href="/title/tt0097576/">Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)</a> (1989), and <a href="/title/tt0367882/">Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)</a> (2008), all of which center around Indy&#39;s search for various ancient artifacts.
