Treasure hunter/historian/antiquities protector Ben Gates (Nic Cage), girlfriend/scholar Abigail (Diane Kruger) and tech whiz buddy Riley (Justin Bartha) go on a new adventure to clear Ben's family name of scandal and discover the legendary City of Gold (Cibola).

Video/Audio: (Note: Until more of our visitors get Blu-Ray players (including this reviewer) we will review the "regular" DVD format). The widescreen picture looked great on our Hi-Def set. Lots of browns and golds (including a golden city), flesh tones were accurate.. great picture. The sound in Dolby digital 5.1 was well-balanced and hefty in both action scenes and dialogue. No complaints.

Special Features: The "Commentary" track with director Jon Turteltaub and actor John Voight chatting away about real history and what was fabricated for the movie was fun and way less "dry" than your history class. Info on the historical locations was cool too. Worth a listen.
