Love the concept and the story, appeals to my preference for the Indiana Jones-esque adventure movies. Has potential as an action-adventure blockbuster. However, the character development needs work. "Major Danger" Jack Dansby is a bit too cliche and shallow. The romance between the two lead characters needs to be developed some more, there's no real obvious reason why the girl would be drawn to the guy. His revelation about his father aside, he's still a materialistic flake without any endearing qualities (and really, shouldn't the hero have at least SOMETHING hero-like about him from the get go?) Her sudden affection for him seems to come out of nowhere. Obviously it's meant to be an action-adventure film, so it's not exactly supposed to be a riveting romantic tale, but a bit more depth could be added to make the relationship more believable rather than forced. The line - "I think I'm ready to be kissed again," was especially corny.
I think it's got potential, though.
