Not only safe for Junior and Grandma but also pretty entertaining.

National Treasure gets more entertaining as the preposterousness rises.

If you can see the film through the eyes of a child -- one who thinks a cheesy thriller is the ideal way to pick up new facts about history -- then this isn't that bad a yarn.

This movie is a fortune wasted.

Turteltaub manages to stitch it all together well enough so that the ludicrous nature of the characters' quest doesn't hit you until the final credits roll.
