Nicolas Cage, the Declaration of Independence, daddy issues, conspiracy theories, hot girl, villain with long hair... WHAT ELSE DO YOU NEED IN A MOVIE
This was such a fun movie and I loved watching it, so thank you for choosing it! It was cheesy, fun and just a great time all around. I'm so happy there are more national treasures so we can ENJOY EVEN MORE OF THEM TOGETHER LOL
Words cannot describe the feeling this movie gave me but with time (and more national treasures) it will come to me. This was great and thank you all, I truly hope you enjoy and please tell me any fun facts, secrets, behind the scene things because this is one of those types of movies where I feel like there are a million there lmao
You guys are the best, my Nicolas Cage pillow agrees
Have a great day friends 🤗❤️

Watching National Treasure with our National Treasure (Nic Cage)
#NationalTreasure #reaction #commentary #vkunia
For anyone interested in The Last of Us and me playing through it (horribly)! I uploaded my first part on my videogame channel here!
ruclips.net/video/LlbhSohAO_8/видео.html
Future parts will be uploaded soon as I'm currently playing through the game on twitch! :) (also sub to new channel hehe)
@VKunia I hope you’re enjoying yourself! I’m happy to be one of your subscribers! Have an awesome day! ❤
I used to work for the writer of this about 21 years ago..
@@johncampbell756 did you really?
@@brandonbullington He was a writer on Angel four a couple of years. I was a PA for the writers for S1&2. Show runner David Greenwalt was his writing partner in the 1980s (Class, Secret Admirer). They co-created with a third guy the show Grimm years later. Jim Koup also wrote the first Rush Hour film and a few other hits.
@vkunia if its air museums you like, try the Air Force museum in Dayton OH or the Pima Air and Space museum in Tucson AZ. Both have significant inventories and in Pima you can literally walk up and touch dozens of aircraft outside. Like touch nuclear bombers, etc.
You'd actually be suprised how easy it is to get into places when you're dressed as a maintenance person and/or carrying a toolbox or ladder for example 😂
And high visibility vests. They ironically turn you near-invisible to people.
I remember some guys that tried doing it for a sort of social experiment. Got into a ton of places with the a safety vest, toolbox, or even cleaning supplies.
Didn’t some RUclipsr make it into the Super Bowl with a hi-vis and a ladder?
Mt Rushmore is the second one I think where they find the city of cebola and Ed Harris dies
They don’t ever expect somebody like me to just walk in. They’re so proud of themselves. So fat and satisfied.
He's not the worst son ever for tying his dad up because by tying him up he protected him from aiding and abetting a fugitive.
Yeah that was the entire point of it, I don't understand how people are too dim to realize that.
One of best movies that people unfortunately don't react to. Thanks Vkunia
I remember several channels getting strikes for reacting to this movie. Probably the reason you don't see a lot of them up.
@@nihlify Good point
You're welcome! Hopefully I dont get a strike 😢
I guess we better watch it quick then just in case
Seriously though. I wish there were more reactions to it. It's one of my favourite film series from my childhood!
This movie is underrated but also pretty damn fun film
Getting through a fingerprintscanner (Specially almost 20 years ago when this was made) is surprisingly easy, taking the print from a champagne glass and transfering it to a fake thumb or thick fingercondom works like a charm as long as you get a decently clean print. Lots of things in this movie make little to no sense, but that piece of science is spot on.
…I’d GREATLY appreciate it if nobody else brought up how this movie came out almost 20 years ago…
@@goORIOLES236 HOLY SHIT no kidding. I had zero clue 🤣
The "as long as you get a decently clean print" part is much harder than in the movies, though. Something can be technically feasible and utterly ridiculous at the same time.
@@michaelw8262 Completely fair statement, lifting the print can be difficult and you really only get one chance to get it right. Still the science holds and I would not call the difficulty "utterly ridiculous", albeit very difficult.
“Oh it’s this guy, he loves playing a disappointed father. “Well he is the father of Angelina Jolie.
It makes it even funnier consider his kind of opinions and the humanitarian charity work that she does
Guys, that's the secretary of defense
"The unbearable weight of massive talent" is tbh ine of the best meta Nic Cage moves made... totally reccomended!
Saw this by chance when I have a few hours with nothing to do out of town and it was awesome.
I'm not a big fan of Nick Cage but his film "National Treasure" is enjoyable fits perfectly with his own dorky persona.
You should watch Mandy. He kicks Satanic ass in that film!
Watch Leaving Las Vegas, Adaptation and Mandy. He's actually a great actor when he tries, he probably just has more fun playing himself 😂
I haven't watched Pig, but they say he's also really good in that one.
@@thecollector427 ~ I'd also add Joe, and Pig, he really nails those roles with no flair.
14:06 lol the pirate symbol is actually Sheffield United’s logo, Sean Bean’s favorite football team (Also so glad you reacted to this, it’s a nostalgic classic for me! Definitely recommend seeing the second one too)
That "bye bye" after the guy fell at around 26:50 was the cutest I've ever heard. You are a joy to watch. Thank you for that and all your other reaction videos.
This movie is what you get when you mix Indiana Jones tone and a Dan Brown plot together. The insanely convenient puzzle mistery of the Da Vinci's Code with the self aware adventure of the Last Crusade.
"Ben Franklin's 3D glasses?! Whoa what a steal!"
- VKunia 2022
You actually have me laughing out loud regularly, love the sarcasm. That comment about the amount of lemons in the house and 'slapping the bell' cracked me up. Keep on being you girl it's great.
VKunia I love you your amazing, but that damned pillow won't stop staring at me🤣
This is actually one of my favorite movies, and I tend to think that's because it satisfies what I look for in a movie and that's principally to have a good time when I watch it, and feel satisfied at the end. It's amazing how many movies fail at doing one or the other let alone both. Nick Cage was actually not his usual terrible self, and that helped.
Hey, this is one of the few movies that stars Sean Bean in a major role and he doesn’t die… Good for him lol
This is my favorite movie to watch with my dad, we know the dialogues by heart and speak them out loud the whole movie through. Big hola from Mexico!
Ok but if all I knew was that you had a pillow with Nic Cage I would instantly know you are good people.
Yeah if you love museums, you need to spend a week in DC and devote each day to 1-2 of each of the Smithsonian Museums. For a museum and history geek it doesn't get much better.
This movie and the sequel are serious guilty pleasures for me.
You have a Nic Cage....pillow? Thou art on the road to being a true believer of Cage-ism! 😇
EDIT: "Why does the dad have sooooo many lemons?!" Finally a reactor who asks the most important question about this movie. Like seriously, was there a discount on lemons that week? 🤣
Have you never squeezed fresh lemonade? City kids...
@@seannovack3834 sure, Voight's character, a grumpy couch potato, buys lots of lemons for fresh lemonades. Sure dude, suuuuure. 🤣🤣🤣 Its needed for the "plot", full stop, the end.
@@Ammeeeeeeer Yep. City kid.
I'm 51 now and when the film came out I was 34. Everyone in my parent's generation (Baby Boomers, like John Voight) had a ton of lemons and oranges in baskets and refrigerator drawers for the purpose of fresh squeezing juice. It was so common it wasn't remarked upon when the film came out.
Plot device? Hell, simple white vinegar or diluted battery acid, or even cat piss would have worked just as well. They would have been less common or more difficult to work with though.
@@seannovack3834 you're taking this waaaaaaaaay too seriously, unlike the makers of this film cashing in on the Dan Brown trend. The lemons are there for plot purposes, its because some intern did the minimal research needed about invinsible ink (spending less than 3 minutes on wikipedia). No more, no less. Your age or Voight's age do not matter 🤪 And why do you think "city kid" is an insult, are you a gaotherder in Taliban controlled Afghanistan? But hey, you want to die in this hill and get your blood pressure rising, go ahead boomer.
The "pirate symbol" is actually the logo of the football team Sean Bean supports, Sheffield United. Their nickname is the blades
There's actually been a lot of sociology studies on this type of thing and surprisingly it could be just that easy to walk right in. Some dude literally walked in to the white house not that long ago
Love your reviews and really like it when you give incites of the east coast locations and the people that live there. I've lived on the west coast my whole life so it makes it really interesting . Please keep up your reactions.
If you stare into the cage, the Cage stares back into you
-Nietzsche, probably.
If you love Nic Cage so much, I just want to make sure you've seen Moonstruck. I don't even care if you react to it (although I'd totally watch it if you did), I just want to make sure you've seen it/will see it because it's so good.
Great reaction! Thanks for sharing with us!
it was a little creepy and a little funny having Nicolas looking over your shoulder! 😆
She's a lucky woman to have the sigma of all sigmas for this video.
have to say that the Nicholas Cage pillow creeps me out. Great reaction video as always!
9:43 Stuff like that DOES work on fingerprint scanners. They can measure the outline of the fingerprint, the temperature of the finger, etc. but in the end, they are still just dumb machines. A piece of silicone heated to roughly 98 degrees with the proper fingerprint drawn on it in a similar way could have worked as well. Mythbusters did a great segment on bypassing fingerprint-locks a few years after this movie came out so it's actually fairly plausible that the fingerprint-condom thing would work! :)
Love this reaction! One of my favorite movies of all time, my go-to comfort movie. I think I've seen it at least 20 times at this point, but it's still so much fun! And I still get a little emotional when Abigail sees those scrolls, just imagining how much history and knowledge could've been in them.
Nice reactions to National Treasure, Vicky!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I see you are ready for Halloween, and already have your scary Nicolas Cage pillow!😱
You'll like the second one just as much. Oh, and if you want to see VERY early Nick Cage you like totally need to watch Valley Girl (1983)
she freaks out about nic cage character kissing girl too quickly and randomly but has a picture of the man on a pillow. lmao
Well this is a pleasant surprise! One of my favorite 'fun' and adventure movies.
Hahaha, Nicholas Cage blanket (if it is a blanket of some sort) is hilarious! I love this movie and the sequel! I remember owning the sequel of National Treasure on my PSP and would watch that movie every road trip I would go to!
Lol it’s a pillow. I couldn’t tell at first because I was cracking up! (≧∀≦)
21:06 "How did they run so far from Chestnut to Reading Terminal Market? They are very far from each other". This happens all the time in movies. There's a film called "Assassins" (1995) starring Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas, and Julianne Moore. It's pretty forgettable, but a large portion of it was shot in Seattle which is the area I'm from. There's a big scene with a shootout in a cemetery which was filmed on location in Everett, WA just one town over from where I live. At the end of the scene, they go speeding off away from the cemetery and across a small cement bridge. Next shot is them coming down the ramp from the bridge, but it's not the same bridge: they're now in downtown Seattle 30 miles away but it was cut in such a way that if you don't know the area you'd think it was just another angle of them speeding away.
Dude, it's like 0.7 miles / 1.1 km? At least according to google maps. That's not far at all.
I randomly saw this movie in a dollar theater many years ago... I knew nothing about it and ended up absolutely loving it, nice reaction!
Definitely one of my favorite channels because of content like this. Movies and things other people don’t even think twice about. Thank you :)
Boromir was ever easily lured by that which is… precious. Fun reaction, for a fun movie V!
My brother got that pillowcase for my dad on Father's day a couple years ago. He's not gay, it was just a joke gift. But my dad still uses it. And right after he got it, I went online and got him a Jeff goldblum pillowcase with rainbows and other stuff on it. He still uses both pillow cases. His bed is the funniest thing ever
Yes, wish more people would react to this❤️❤️❤️I LOVE both National Treasure movies
Love the series of movies! So happy that you are doing this one!
There are actually several copies of the Declaration of Independence including two in the Archives alone. (They reference this oversight right in the trailer of the second film.) Good think they got the right one then.
@2:25, in this moment I knew I was going to love this movie. A grandfather carrying on a centuries old family legacy and passing it down to his grandson. I'm not crying you are crying.
The Nicholas Cage face peering over your shoulder was a bit distracting. LOLLLLL
Someone who loved the USS Intrepid museum, and teared up at the sight of SS Enterprise - my new friend for life! Possibly even a fren!
Your pillow is freaking me out with those eyes hahaha😂 love your videos🙌🙌
I couldn't get through the intro with Nick staring at us and the slow zoom 🤣🤣🤣
I love how whenever movies come out, the "experts" come out. They know about EVERYTHING from history to plot devices to technology to history to archeology to relationships. Where would we be without their infinite wisdom?🤣
This is the most underrated movie.
The greatest plot twist for me was in the end when we find out that Agent Sadusky is a Freemason who was well aware of that the treasure was real. Him tapping his ring was such a cute moment.
I love this movie, I know many don't, But I LOVE IT, Part 2 okay, Can't wait for your reaction.
Great choice of movie, Vicky. Not many people have reacted to it before. Fun reaction. In my own case, when you react to great movies from the past, I'll be back.
I just have to say, I'm always happy whenever V uploads a reaction. Never fails to brighten up my day. She's always so excited and genuine, it's quite adorable 🙂
(P.S. I think you would love D.C., one of my best vacations was spent down there checking out all the monuments and museums.)
I don't know if someone mentioned this yet but you must have watched National Treasure 2, or seen bits and pieces of it, because you mentioned them being at Mt. Rushmore, which is in the second movie.
I was just in Philly last month. It costs one dollar to get a reservation time to go into the building where the Liberty Bell is on display. Yes, you can see it for free thru the windows but there is a LOT more to see in that building.
Since you enjoy museums so much, if you’re ever around Dayton Ohio, go to the Air Force Museum!! It’s phenomenal!! And free! 250+ aircraft and countless war memorabilia. An absolute gold mine of a museum. Love the reaction!
I really enjoy this movie and agree completely with the analysis.. I am still not sure if it takes itself a bit more seriously than it should but I choose to believe that they knew they were completely over the top and were just having fun with it.
As an adult I've only been to New York with work but last time I had 1 day to myself and I chose between going to the Intrepid (which I have seen from the outside) and the Natural History museum and I chose the latter, so it's still on my bucket list. If anyone likes that kind of thing and goes to London then I would recommend going to the WWII era warship HMS Belfast near Tower Bridge.
the second one is cool too, I used to watch them all the time when I was a kid
Nic Cage in Vampire's Kiss was a revelation.
I forgot how smart and well-traveled you must be. Didn't you want to join NASA or something like that at some point? I binged a bunch of your videos when I found your channel due to the RUclips hydra algorithm suggesting a bunch of your vids once I watched one. I'm pretty sure you said something like that in one of them. This video was a treat to watch with how excited you got talking about locations. Certainly, this video would have got a Like from me just based on the Nic Cage pillow alone, but it was also enjoyable.
A very similar movie is The Da Vinci Code with Tom Hanks. It's less silly than this but has all the goose chase clues and travel all over looking for treasure.
In this movie, Boromir goes bad.
For a lot of your "why?" questions, the answer is "This is when Disney did actual family fare, so, there it is." Also, I have several friends who drink tea often through their day and buy lemons by the bagfull for their tea, hot or cold, so it made sense to me for his dad to have quite a few lemons.
And I've gotten into quite a few places I wasn't allowed over the years by either wearing coveralls and carrying a toolbox, wearing a gray polo shirt and slacks and carrying a couple of packages, or a polo and jeans and carrying a pizza delivery bag. It was entertaining how often it'd work.
Also: Riley is the best. 😀
Been waiting ages to see someone do a reaction to this movie 🎥 🍿
LOVING the total bias against the Hudson river! (Kidding - I live right off the Hudson, across from Manhattan and you're RIGHT - scary-time). When they have kayak tours from Hoboken on the Hudson, I'm thinking NOOOOOOOOO - don't risk it!
Your hatred of the Hudson always has me rolling and gives me life 🤣🤣
Nice reaction. Cage movies are always an adventure and lots of fun. I'm sure will have him more on here. As I've said before, you are funny. I'm just jealous of Cage (pillow) lol. Do you have a pillow with your beautiful face?
They owe us the damned 3rd film. These are silly fun little adventure films with some history and real locations and people so they feel more grounded. Everyone is cast perfectly. They just work.
26:23 "Wait, I thought they were supposed to be in Mt. Rushmore." (You're thinking of the 2nd movie, not the first one).
Yes you can see the Liberty Bell from outside the building but not up close. (Philadelphian here)
Love the fact that your Philly knowledge comes shining through 21:05
I once changed all the tablets at an international motorcycle convention in Longbeach, to have the image of Nic Cage from Wicker Man. I still laugh about it
Forgot I was on Patreon and I was like I swear I’ve already watched this with you 😅
Vicky, you stole the declaration of my heart. Idk what that actually means, but I stand by it anyway.
The Intrepid was in Philadelphia before conversion to a museum in NYC.
I've been to DC once. My dad took me for my 16th birthday. It's amazing.
This movie had me convinced every adult was a history nerd 😂 😂 😂
It's a fun movie but like the DaVinci code you really don't want to think about it too much 🤣
Leaving Las Vegas, Matchstick Men, and Adaptation are great Cage movies
you from new york i take it, and i love how much of a history geek you are
Here you have the very rare privilege of seeing Sean Bean in a role where he is still alive at the end of the movie.
"Oh this guy, he loves playing a disappointed father..." Angelina Jolie felt that
National Treasure 3 is still in the works.
Yes, Jon Voight does well playing a disappointed father - but he did eventual reconcile with Angelina Jolie.
I love nicolas cage but I have to say that (1997) CON AIR and (2000) gone in 60 second's are the 2 beast movies he's cast in .
Your commentary absolutely cracks me up 😂😂😂💯💯
One of my favorites! When you get to DC here are a few of my favorite stops - Udvar Hazey Smithsonian Air and Space Museum out at Dulles Airport, National Archives, if you book way in advance you can get tours of the Pentagon and White House. Capitol Bldg and Library of Congress also have some great tours. Best of all almost all the museums are free or very cheap entry
Nic Cage is one of those actors where even if you know a movie is going to suck you'll watch it just for him and when it's as bad as you though it'd be you'll still have had a good time purely because of Cage.
This movie is absolutely NOT one of those, it's actually one of his most enjoyable movies, and that is saying a lot.
thank you for reacting to one of my favourite movies 🙂
Hope you treat that pillow respectfully. Man is a legend.
One of the few times Sean Bean plays a character that doesnt die
I live in the Philly area and you don’t pay a cent to see the liberty bell. It’s a free walkthrough museum that ends with the liberty bell. You just go through security and that’s it
Great reaction to a really good movie. This is one of my favs and I do love the fact that the whole family can watch it. Thanks for sharing.
The most important thing about this movie is the undeniable versatility of lemon juice. 🥰
23:15 I love that you've been to most of these places. I'm so jealous.
Finally, a movie where Sean Bean didn't have to die in. He only got arrested.
I really love this movie and have watched it so many times
Give us national treasure 3!!!
I love this reaction! I think another very underrated movie that would make a great reaction is Second Hand Lions! :)
I remember when I first saw this and it was in a class in eighth grade. And there were some girls at the table next to me and they were practically begging for the kiss scene between Ben and Abigail, but when it happened they were all looking away and my friends and I explained to them what happened. It was absolutely hilarious.
