I didn't expect much from this movie and was pleasantly surprised that it's actually not bad. It's not great, but it's well paced and its intended audience of twelve-year-olds will be fully entertained.

It's sort of a juvenile Indian Jones movie with the moral that GIRLS CAN DO ANYTHING!

The adults are all stupid and it's up to the kids to save the day, but that's what kids want to see in a movie so it delivers in that way. It's geared low enough and keeps up a pace that should keep even the littlest kids interested, too.

As a show for kids goes, this ain't bad at all.

Not much of a movie for adults, but it's not made for them either.
