Something about John Wilkes Booth's diary and some missing pages they try to find. And yes, National Treasure was an awesome movie overall.

Seems to me Cage is just cashing in on his currently popularity and making as many films as he can to fill his bank account.

Any movie he has been in would have been better if someone else was acting as his character.

EDIT:

I do like some of his movies though, I just think he is a terrible actor who has the same monotonous tone in every movie.

he was amazing in Leaving Las Vegas (won an oscar), Adaptation (nominated), and .. OK.. Face Off.. A bit over the top in that, but I think that was the point.

I enjoyed some of the movies he is in but not becuase of him. His acting skills are horrible. Reminds me of how bad Keanu Reeves is. Ghost Rider i think may top my list of all time cheeziest movies ever. So bad it made me cry.

Yeah and the chick who co-starred was not bad looking either. :thumbsup:
