    Special 2 Disc Collector's Edition out on DVD 12/18

    I have to admit I was a real sucker for this movie on the big screen. There was simply non-stop action, but action that required some thought. I enjoyed it just as much the second time around on this new DVD version. The special features are great!! Who knew they blew up Charlotte in Park City, UT? Who new the Charlotte interiors where shot in a meat locker in downtown Los Angeles? Fans of National Treasure will really enjoy all of the extras. The folks at Disney timed this one perfectly -- just in time for National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets...

    Wonderful movie!!

    This is one of the best movies for people who like history, like myself (I have a degree in it)! You can not pick apart what part is real and what is fake, it's a movie and there are many trivial history questions in it!! Some old guy might say thats not true and its so stupid, but its a MOVIE, of course they want to put butts in the seats!
