I'm not a huge fan of any of the big stars other than Helen Mirren, who was superb. Regardless, the movie was filmed well, acted well and attempted to place historical facts in the proper context. HOWEVER, I know most of the history was not correct and I always wonder if kids in school watch these kind of movies and really believe the Liberty Bell holds the answers to the world's wonders. Please folks, this is just a movie. It was a pleasure to watch this Nic Cage sequel. Particularly interesting was Justin Bartha's character losing all his money and owing back taxes after striking it rich in the first movie. And I like Ed Harris best when he is the bad guy. I think Diane Kruger is better than these movies and should go on to do more important roles in the future.
