I had been really looking forward to seeing this movie and found it just about as good as I thought it would be. This was not Shakespeare but a nice Disney type adventure wrapped around a lot of fascinating history.
Nichlas Cage gives an understated, witty performance, Diane Kruger, who is quite beautiful, does a nice job in her role, and Justin Bartha was quite amusing as the prototypical male sidekick. He's not too hard on the eyes either.
As a gal who is quite interested in history, this was not only a fun film, but leads you to wonder. All you have to do is look at a dollar bill to be sucked in a little.
Best of all, the ending seemed to indicate the strong possibility of a sequel.
