Amazon.co.uk Review:
Less engrossing than its 2004 predecessor National Treasure, Jon Turteltaub's busy sequel National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets is nevertheless a colourful and witty adventure, another race against overwhelming odds for the answer to a historical riddle. Ben Gates (Nicolas Cage), the treasure hunter who feverishly sought, in the first film, the whereabouts of a war chest hidden by America's forefathers, is now charged with protecting family honour. When a rival (Ed Harris) offers alleged proof that Gates' ancestor, Thomas Gates, was not a Civil War-era hero but a participant in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, Ben and his father (Jon Voight) and crew (Justin Bartha, Diane Kruger) hopscotch through Paris, London, Washington DC, and South Dakota to gather evidence refuting the claim.
The film is most fun when the hunt, as in National Treasure, squeezes Ben into such impossible situations as examining twin desks in the queen's chambers in Buckingham Palace and the White House's Oval Office, or kidnapping an American president (Bruce Greenwood) for a few minutes of frank talk. Helen Mirren, the previous year's Oscar winner for Best Actress, wisely joins the cast of a likely hit film as Ben's archaeologist mother, long-estranged from Voight's character but as feisty as the rest of the family. Returning director Turteltaub takes excellent advantage of his colorful backdrops in European capitals and the always-eerie Mount Rushmore, and oversees some wildly imaginative sets for this dramedy's feverish third act in an audacious and completely unexpected, legendary setting. If National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets doesn't feel quite as crisp and unique as its predecessor, it is still ingenious and wry enough to laugh a bit at itself. --Tom Keogh

- All round family fun
National Treasure: Book of Secrets is everything a big budget adventure sequel should be. A bigger story and better action help make Book of Secrets a surprising crowd pleaser.
Setting out to clear his ancestor's name, Ben Gates is back in treasure-hunting action to unequivocally prove that his family had nothing to do with the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. With his usual cohorts Riley, Abigail and his father, Patrick Gates, the trio must race against the clock to stop a new enemy, ... Read More

- who green lit this film?
while the first national treasure was what i would describe as a bank holiday film,the ones that you carnt be bothered to switch over because you have had too much pie, this travesty of a film only engages you on the level that you keep watching to see if it could be anymore worse which it does in spades. i am glad i never bought it only rented, but then again i wish i could have my rental fee. The real shame of the film is that it has an inpressive list of actors who should sack their agents immediatly ... Read More
Rating: - NATIONAL TREASURE 2 BOOK OF SECRETS - TRANSLATION SHOULD BE WORST FILM EVER MADE A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME
This is the worst film ever I have had the misfortune to watch. The first film was good abit long but got there in the end so worth a watch, but this one was dreadful a complete waste of time and money! I seriously could never watch this film again it was that bad hence this review to warn others.

- Decent family entertainment and good fun.
I like this sort of adventure film. There are far too few made, if you ask me. I guess most film makers think they will inevitably be compared to Indiana Jones, which is a shame.
So how does this compare to Indiana Jones? Not as good, a bit far-fetched, though I cant say why without giving bits of the plot away, but nonetheless a very entertaining romp.
Its the kind of film that eats your time away. There aren't any real dull moments, and its a shame when it has to finish.

Rating: - Awesome
People are all too quick to judge sequals, and I was taken by surprise by NT2, which I thought was amazing. The plot was well thought out, not thin or over the top as some other ratings say. I suppose that your opinion is all to do with your nature and what films you prefer, I'm not saying everyone who hates it is wrong to not like it, but personally, I loved it and would reccommend it to everybody, both adults and children. Yes, the plot is relatively the same and on a bigger scale, but aren't movies supposed ... Read More
