Review of The Librarian: Quest for the Spear (2004) by Alycia R — 24 Mar 2008
There's a right way and a wrong way to do 'wildly implausible disposable cheeze-fest'.
This is the right way.
How to describe it... this is what would happen if Laura Croft fell on hard times and was reduced to playing babysitter to the Buffy-era Wesley Wyndam-Pryce. Who's somehow been trapped in the body of Dr John Carter.
Sound good? But wait! There's more!
Special Agent Dale Cooper is evil! Prymaat Clorhone is head of admin!
Don't know who any of these people are?
Then this is probably not the film for you.
But if you enjoy humorously self-aware questing-for-mystical-relics B-movies (and what right-thinking person doesn't?) then this is definitely worth the price of the rental.
Bonus LOLs: someone contributing to Wikipedia has felt the need to point out that "[t]here are a number of details in the film that differ from standard historical and scientific orthodoxy". No... really?
