It is unbelievable how bad that movie is.  I think that the video of my high-school graduation was a better movie, although it was so bad that even the guy who made it didn&#8217;t watch it until the end.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, the whole thing felt like someone&#8217;s required homework project.  You know, the kind of project that was done during the night before it was due.  I have nothing against such homeworks (and honestly I did a few myself), unless they are released to the general public.<\/p>\n<p>There were a few good ideas in this film, which were borrowed from other adventure treasure-seeking movies.  And there were nothing else.  The dialogues were terrible.  As was character development.  As were adventures.  As were special effects.  As was music.  As was <strong>everything<\/strong>!  I mean c&#8217;mon &#8211; how many things can you screw up about one movie?  I never thought it could be that bad&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Resume: avoid this film.  Or watch it and learn from the mistakes.
