jeez, has it finished yet?

A Customer from Northants, 19th April, 2008

My teenage son really wanted to see this film. Maybe it would have been better if it wasn't such a long film, a lot of the time was spent on the location shots. The film was incredibly predictable and Ray Winstone's 'American' accent had me squirming in my seat. It's a 12U, but it has the s**t and B*lls**t words in quite a lot - also a flash of boobs, so maybe not for the little ones.

Rubbish

Hannah13 from from Chichester, 30th April, 2008

I was expecting fools gold to be really good coz it had the people from 'how to loose a guy in 10 days' in it, but it wasnt. It was sooooooo boring and the plot was so rubbish they actually had to explain how the film worked themselves!!! There were a few funny bits but all in all me and my friends felt like walking out of the cinema half way throught, it was that bad!!!

A good ole fashion treasure hunt!!

A Customer from SW London, 23rd April, 2008

I REALLY missed seeing a good treasure hunt movie like this. If treasure hunts are your cup of tea then this movie has it all and delivers in spades!! Action, adventure, history, Relationships problems,beautiful, tropical scenery, eye candy for both male and female viewers....the list is endless! This movie takes you on a mighty,adrelin fuelled rollercoaster ride from beginning to end. My only regret is that it had to finish.!!! A really good, adventure movie. Don't wait, go see it!

Oh Dear, oh dear, oh dear

A Customer from 36,000 ft, 7th September, 2008

Watched this on a flight back from Cyprus and would have prefered turbulence to break up the monotony. In fact if we'd had a decent bit of turbulence they would have put the tv screens up! First of all - Ray Winstone, what were you thinking?.... somebody said you were trying an American accent - i don't think even you knew what accent you were trying! This film is a really poor attempt at grabbing money from the ideas of 'Into the Blue' and 'National Treasure'. The clues were as obscure as Ted Roger's 3-2-1 and sub plots kept being explained... Don't waste your time or money.
