National Treasure: Book of Secrets

The original show, National Treasure, is about a hidden treasure with clues leading to clues leading to clues. The sequel to it, National Treasure: Book of Secrets, follows a similar concept, yet, somehow, I keep feeling that the first movie was better.

Why is that? I had thought that there would be a look more puzzles and riddles to solve before they find the treasure in the sequel, yet I was wrong. There wasn't much problem solving, instead, time was spent on a meaningless car chase, and the eventual dungeon crawl inside Mount Rushmore.

If you like puzzle-solving movies, you would be better off watching the first movie, National Treasure, or try The Da Vinci Code (don't think too much about the religious implications).
