The "boy next door, if that boy spent lots of time alone in the basement," is how Rich Cohen described Kyle MacLachlan in a 1994 article for "Rolling Stone" magazine. That distinctly askew wholesomeness made MacLachlan a natural to become famous as the alter ego of twisted director David Lynch. Born and a raised in Yakima, Washington, MacLachlan graduated from the University of Washington in 1982. The darkly handsome actor made his feature debut when he starred in the big-budget David Lynch adaptation of Frank Herbert's Dune (1984), but only enjoyed real success after appearing in a second Lynch project, the moody and perverse classic Blue Velvet (1986).

George Robert Newhart (born September 5, 1929), known professionally as Bob Newhart, is an American stand-up comedian and actor. Noted for his deadpan and slightly stammering delivery, Newhart came to prominence in the 1960s when his album of comedic monologues The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart was a worldwide bestseller and reached #1 on the Billboard pop music charts--it remains the 20th best-selling comedy album in history...(wikipedia)

Yes, this is a goofy Indiana Jones knock-off... yes, the acting and writing are cheesy... but there is something very watchable about movies like this.

Tried watching this. Really tried. Didn't succeed.

Quirky and cute, but without any substance. It promises nothing but face-palmingly bad jokes and cheesy music, and we get this in droves. The characters are at least likeable, even if they do tend to fall in love at the drop of a hat.

Omg? This film is just a serie of predictable events splashed after one another without even decent acting or a good plot. CGI effects were also terrible, actually it's just a complete disaster. I wanted to see this because mythologie interests me, but it's just worthless.

This is one of the most B movies I have ever seen. The plot leaps unexpectedly and entertainingly from one ridiculous place to another, which is pretty much what makes it worth sitting through. It doesn't take itself too seriously, which saves it a bit. It's certainly not very good, but it's got some underlying charm. I went in expecting a ludicrous B movie, and that's what I got. I was strangely entertained. If you can't see past a ridiculous plot, avoid.

i guess even if you have a modest budget--no, a terribly small budget--you can still make a solid movie provided you have a good story (even though completely over-the-top) and noah wyle.

A poor man's National Treasure, with a lower budget, a worse supporting cast (Noah Wyle in the lead is actually pretty good), and much worse CGI. The music is often inopportune and overall the movie has a very obvious B movie feel. But it was kinda fun in a family-friendly way.

A cheesy Indiana Jones knockoff? Count me in. I liked The Librarian movies better than I thought based on my PSI.
