Overview
Benjamin Franklin Gates and Dr. Abigail Chase re-team with Riley Poole and, now armed with a stack of long-lost pages from John Wilkes Booth’s diary, Ben must follow a clue left there to prove his ancestor’s innocence in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.
This movie was about everything that you would expect if you saw the first one: unrealistic plot, a wooden Nicholas Cage (is he the same character in every movie?) and a plot that moves along at 100 mph. All in all, it wasn’t awful – it does keep you interested but there are several times where you just shake your head at the storyline. (this was also the first Blu Ray movie that we watched on our PS3 🙂
