"National Treasure" (2004): Nicolas Cage steals the Declaration of Independence

The 2004 blockbuster "National Treasure" starring Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger and Justin Bartha is an over-engineered but gleefully dumb historical thriller centred on stealing the Declaration of Independence. The film races from one conspiracy theory to the next, delivering a breezy, action-packed U.S. history lesson. A critic revisits it as a delightfully absurd piece of Hollywood entertainment.
