Globally famous romance novelist Sadra Bullock is kidnapped by looney tune billionaire Daniel Radcliffe to help him find buried treasure and the dim cover model of her novels, Channing Tatum, sets out to rescue her. That's about it really. It unashamedly plunders both Raiders of the Lost Ark and Romancing the Stone, to the extent that it even slyly references them, and given the two principal stars, of course evolves into a romcom of sorts. Mind you, seeing Radcliffe ham it up as a baddie for once and the sporadically amusing screwball dialogue between Bullock and Tatum at least make it an unpainful experience to watch, even though it's just froth.
5/10
