Even though I felt pretty yucky all day yesterday (still have a cough and a little congestion) I ordered our tickets early to go see National Treasure. When Ron got home, he showered, ate a snack and we went on to the theater. Thank goodness we were 45 minutes early!!! I don't think there was an empty seat in the auditorium!
The moview was FANTASTIC!! My personal opinion is that sequels are seldom as good as the first, this one, though, was just as good. It was funny, heart-pounding (especially for me in the cave scenes as I have a cave-phobia left over from my college days), full of adventure, sweet and, of course the best of all, semi-historical!
Before the movie, Ben was shaking he was so excited (he loves the first one) and during it, other than at the beginning when he kept nudging me and going "told you about that" (about the 3 statues of liberty), he was silent for the entire movie. His eyes were glued to the screen. He made up for it on the way home, though, when he wouldn't STOP talking! :) We laugh that he wants to be "Benjamin Franklin Johnson", treasure hunter, when he grows up. More than likely he'll end up being some great historian or something. He loves history, historical myths and urban legends, secrets and all that.
So, anyway, go see it! Its the best movie I've seen this year.....maybe in two years.
