Jack Hunter and the Lost Treasure of Ugarit

It was a total rip off of Indiana Jones without the quality. The acting was bad, the storyline was not great, the characters weren't fleshed out enough and even the music didn't incite excitement. The music would have done better in a drama/romance type movie. There was no depth to the story like the writers couldn't wait to get to the punchline without telling the story in between. They could have built more of a romance into it because they flirted with attraction between the hero and heroine but never even showed a kiss between them. The ending was very bad and disappointing. My recommendation is to pass on this tripe.

A good adventure with a proper plot, some goodies, some baddies, a couple of twists and a lot of action. Think Indiana Jones, romancing the stone and the mummy. The special effects are low budget but so too with indiana Jones. The acting is not superb but so too with the mummy. If it had been released in the 80's it would have been a classic.

Have seen all three in the series, very like Indiana Jones, but the sound on speech is very low, used Speaker Bar and just able to hear it with Subtitles.

It was all a bit silly, but easy watching which didn't tax the brain too much.

I was irritated however, by the number of times the name 'Jack' was shouted out by Nadia. Dear Lord, if you didn't know the hero's name was Jack beforehand then you certainly knew it by the end of the series !! I could almost tell when it was coming, ..... Jaaaaaack, then Jaaaaaaack again, even Litman couldn't say a sentence without using his name.

Otherwise ok.

I watched this series last night, and I was actually surprised to find an adventure series with a rather engaging plot.Even though it had some flaws here and there which are rather difficult to pass, the story-line was interesting. They had some problems with the special effects in some part of the movie but mostly it was enjoyable. I was expecting some " American treasure hunter movie" and I was right, it has many clichés. The actors acted pretty well, still it could have been better... The story resembles "Indiana Jones" movies, and you would probably like this series if you are a fan of "treasure-hunter" movies... My vote is 8 out of 10, as it was a nice, relaxing movie.
