After discovering the riches of the Knights Templar, Ben Gates, the world's most famous treasure hunter, and Patrick Gates, father of a university professor, also discovered the assassin John Wilkes B. To their great surprise, the contents of this diary imply that their ancestor Thomas Gates was an accomplice in the assassination of President Lincoln.
...
So, for the sake of family honor, Ben Gates was dispatched again, this time not only with his girlfriend and computer expert from the last episode, but also with his parents who are historians. Obviously, for a movie produced by Disney, such a character configuration is naturally to attract more audiences into the movie theater. It has also been proved that the audience of "National Treasure 2" is very wide. It can be said that from 8-year-olds Children to the age of 80 are attracted to it. In a sense, this is a true "family film" that three generations of the family can watch together and have the same pleasure in.
However, as an action film suitable for all ages, "National Treasure 2: Secrets of Treasure Hunting" naturally becomes less pure. There are so many scenes of robbery by bad guys and car chases and shootings in the whole film, from start to finish, There is no scene of a dead person, and the biggest villain in the film turns into a good man who finds his conscience and sacrifices himself at the end.
A commercial and entertainment blockbuster about adventure and treasure hunting can do this to such an extent. For those action movie fans, such an action movie is at best an action version of "chicken soup for the soul". Although it tastes good, it is not nutritious.
