National Treasure
is a piece of crap. I knew it going in but it was my wife's turn to pick the movie.

Of course it's a piece of crap. It's a Disney movie.

Was this a date night or did you go with the whole family? These kinds of movies are usually tolerable if you are watching them with your kids.

My teenagers loved it.

We went to see it late last night at the Palms, which has a theater in the casino. the game had ended, we had already gone to get something to eat, and some people wanted to see a movie.
I went into the theater, watched the first 15 minutes of it, at which time I decided it was terrible. I just went to sleep. I woke up about an hour and half later to see them pouring their water bottles all over the rocks. I watched for a few more minutes, until they found the oil and lit it on fire. Once I saw that, I went into the casino and watched people play craps until the movie was over. The cocktail waitress brought me a half sandwich and some soda, which was a nice gesture.

Fortunately, I didnt buy my movie ticket, so I was only out the value of my personal time, which is pretty worthless to begin with.

The second one seemed like a desperate attempt to cash in. Kind of like the difference between M:I and M:I 2. Also, NT2 has a blatant sequel primer implanted into the story which was gratuitous and stupid. Be prepared for NT3 in 2 years.
