"National Treasure" is an American movie directed by the famous Hollywood director Joe Det Durbar. His famous works include the "National Treasure" series, "The Witcher Apprentice", "Return My Childhood" and so on. We watched the first work in the "National Treasure" series.
The Gates family is a famous family of adventurers. Ben (Nicholas Cage) learned of a shocking secret of their family when he was a child: the place where the national treasure was buried when the United States was founded is hidden in the "Declaration of Independence". Although his father didn't want him to be entangled in the treasure, Ben started the treasure hunt together with the computer expert Raleigh (Justin Barça). Although they had struggled to find an ivory pipe on the Charlotte. Ben's treasure hunt quickly reached a deadlock, and they needed the information behind the Declaration of Independence. At the same time, Ian (Sean Bing) also focused on this treasure. He sneaked into the National Books of the United States to find the secret of the treasure in the "Declaration of Independence" and pay for it. After learning about Ian’s sinister intentions, Dr. Abigail (played by Diane Kruger) of the library is determined to help Ben find the national treasure...
There are many real-life storylines in the movie, such as behind the Declaration of Independence The text, the Liberty Bell, the letter of Sirence Dugood, the Trinity Church, the Freemasonry, etc. The film screenwriter, through the very clever time and the organization of the storyline, makes these things that do exist properly appear in the movie, and perfectly integrate with the main body of the movie. Lead the protagonist to find the last treasure through some profound clues, and at the same time harvest his own love.
In this movie, there are characteristics common to most Hollywood movies: heroes and beauties. In the movie, Gates finally found the last treasure through the constant pursuit of treasures through hardships and dangers, completed the salvation of his own family and won the hearts of the beautiful women, and the story ended satisfactorily. Generally speaking, this film is a commercial success, and it is not a problem to attract the audience's attention and win the box office. However, compared with other commercial films, this film is not innovative in plot. It is still an old routine, which is a little regret.

National Treasure quotes

  • Riley Poole: [leaving Abigail's office after unsuccessfully trying to convince her about potential theft the Declaration of Independence] If it's any consolation, you had me convinced.

    Ben Gates: It's not.

    Riley Poole: I was thinking, what if we go public, plaster the story all over the internet? It's not like we have our reputations to worry about. Although, I don't think that's exactly gonna scare Ian away.

    Ben Gates: [standing in front of the Declaration of Independence] 180 years of searching, and I'm three feet away. Of all the words written here about freedom, there's a line here that's at the heart of all the others. "But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and provide new Guards for their future security."

    [pause]

    Ben Gates: People don't talk that way anymore.

    Riley Poole: Beautiful, huh? I have no idea what you said.

    Ben Gates: It means if there's something something wrong, those who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.

    [pause]

    Ben Gates: I'm gonna steal it.

    Riley Poole: [laughs] What?

    Ben Gates: I'm gonna steal the Declaration of Independence.

    [walks away]

    Riley Poole: [laughs, then follows Ben] Uh, Ben?
