How can a treasure hunt blockbuster not have a tense atmosphere

Jacklyn 2022-04-22 07:01:05

When you see the main and supporting characters looking for something on the rock, you can't watch it... There is no commendable atmosphere in the whole movie, and there is no suspense, it feels like everything is going with the flow, which should be a taboo in treasure hunt movies. Bar?
Even Gates' mother was held at gunpoint without the slightest tension, and the kidnapping of the president of the United States was even more boring. This kind of film is simply torture for people who don't want to spend their time learning about American history. Although I love most of Cage's movies.
It may also be related to the jailbreak I just watched recently. I prefer movies with a strong atmosphere, such as "The Shawshank Redemption", which is my favorite because of the shock that Andy gave me when he escaped.

    Ben Gates: [puts hand between rocks] Aaahhh!... I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

  • Ben Gates: [Riley comes walking home] Where's the Ferrari?

    Riley Poole: IRS impounded it.

    Ben Gates: The IRS?

    Riley Poole: Funny story. My accountant set up a corporation on an island that didn't exist and assured me that that's how rich people do it. Then I got audited and slapped with a huge fine plus interest! Wanna know what taxes are on five millions dollars? Six million dollars. But enough about me.
