Thoughts
This felt like a tame ripoff of Indiana Jones, but with a jet pack. The story was pretty standard. But as a kid, I thought all the jet pack stuff was cool.

The best part of the movie was the beautiful Jennifer Connelly. Her gratuitous cleavage shot was perfect for a 12 year old boy, as I leaned over my seat, trying to see if I could see further down.

With her and the PG action, it was a good action movie for young kids who were afraid of too much violence. Also, the video game was pretty good, too.

What I would change
Better story.
