Summary -
Very Good
3.5
A stereotypical action-packed treasure hunt in the Sahara desert (think “The Mummy” without the Mummy) that ends up running a second storyline inside the first (not separate).

Totally average script. No unexpected twists, turns, or surprises.
Music -

The music was overall pretty good and fit the setting of the movie until the last tune when all of a sudden it was a really guitar-ish rock tune that just came out of nowhere.

You know, it was what it was. I wouldn't show it to a 10 year old, but by 15 they'd probably handle it fine.

The moves performed by the movie's heros are extremely difficult, if not impossible, in real life.
