Jack Hunter and the Lost Treasure of Ugarit

Totally derivative of Indiana Jones, but then, Indiana Jones is totally derivative of earlier films and radio programs. Taken on its own merit, the Jack Hunter series is a fun and adventurous romp. While that's pretty much it, that's more than mainstream media has been giving us for some time. The acting is passable. The writing is decent. The special effects are dated and sometimes cheesy, but again, passable. My favorite part of the films is the dichotomy between Jack and his nemesis, Albert Littman. The actors play well off of each other, and it provides a sense of tension and danger that has been sorely lacking in Hollywood films of late.
