Bob Bobbeldibob This film is horrible. There are no plot holes because there is no plot and the "actors", well ... BUT - there is "Paperman" : A person with absolutely no connection to other parts of the movie. Its a mix between a mummy, toilet paper and ninja (which is great). But, after fighting the main protagonist for like no reason he disappears for the rest of the film. The background and overall scenery looks pretty cool, there is a room made out of skulls and spinning things and stuff like this, but the final questions must be: WHERE IS PAPERMAN? WHAT HAPPENED TO PAPERMAN? WILL THERE BE ANOTHER MOVIE WITH PAPERMAN IN IT? The rating is made by 4 points for the movie and 5 bonus points for Paperman.

Pete Davies No, it wasn't the fact that a pop star was in it... he was actually quite good. The movie was so bad because the script was terrible and it was so badly cut. Nice tributes to almost every adventure movie out there... some might call it theft, but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. The acting was quite good... and I've always been a sucker for a motorcycle, a damsel in distress and a bit of ancient history... It could have been just an enjoyable adventure romp... but the script was awful... Such a shame... such a waste...I bought the DVD... Anyone want it?

helmutty Well, that is the truth. As it is directed by the guy behind Kung Fu Dunk, I am surprised that this is actually more entertaining than his previous movie. I did not really enjoy Kung Fu Dunk and I was disappointed at how some great ideas turned into a rushed plot movie. So after reading the horrible reviews of The Treasure Hunter, I lowered my expectations. I didn't catch it in cinema due to the reviews and instead I waited for the DVD which surprisingly came out quite fast. I rented it and prepared for the worst. But it turned out to be actually cheesy fun.The story: Those who bluntly said that this is a rip-off of The Mummy and others are right. The director took the popular adventure movies and spun a story on his own which turns out not to be original. Though not original, I was still entertained by cheesy fight scenes and action-packed story. Now, the story is nothing much to mention and time of the story is weird. First, they are in the dessert and another scene shows them in a modern city. Unless they are jumpers, it is impossible but in a story. The story is a bit jumbled but the action covers it. The action (some are a bit sloppy) is not great by any means but it is entertaining. The acting is not that good. Jay Chou, I don't even know how he got into the movie with his one and only expression. Chiling Lin, the female main character, is a disappointment. Her acting is not bad in Red Cliff. But now, she creates some laughable expressions.Overall: It is not a great movie even for a Chinese movie but it serves its purpose, to entertain. A lot of people hate this and call it the worst movie of 2009 but I don't think so. I enjoyed this better than Kung Fu Dunk, the movie where ideas become rushed and into junk.

bwang12 Only Jay Chow's 16 yrs old fans would find this movie bearable. Because throughout the whole movie, there is nothing but bad jokes, bad lines and even worse acting. I am no professional film critic, I am merely trying to tell people how BAD this movie is. In fact, I registered on IMDb just to express my feelings. 1 out of 10 would probably be an exaggeration for some people, I gave it such a low score is because I actually expected this movie to be good. Granted, Jay Chow is not famous for his acting, the movie Gong fu guan lan (Kung fu slam dunk) is a pretty good example, but both his directing and acting in Bu neng shuo de. mi mi (the Unspeakable secret) was actually pretty good. I was proved wrong.
