Please don't take the history "story" here as fact - National Treasure Reviews

I am truly amazed at the number of reviewers who unquestionably accept the stories presented in this movie as factual history. Yes, the Free Masons exist, and yes other bits and pieces of the movie do call upon actual historic events and figures. HOWEVER, just because historical names, organizations, and places are part of the story does NOT make the whole thing true! Just like the Da Vinci code, THIS IS A FICTIONAL STORY! Dan Brown himself has time and time again had to remind people that his books are historical FICTION! If you are interested in history, READ A BOOK. Please stop dumbing down the human race by refusing to take the time to learn the truth instead of treating a movie as such!
