What do you get a with a few fun puzzles and a bunch of folks that can't act their way out of a paper bag? This movie!

It's been done before, and done much better. This felt like one of those teen movies passable but not nearly as clever as it thought it was. A well worn plot of bad guys pursuing some good guys following a trail of clues to save the world. A wannabe James Bond movie, but without the screen play, budget, actors and director. Kids might enjoy it, but adults will find the disjointed plot frustrating.

This is a very formula film of which you can figure out the whole movie in the first few minutes. Do not let this detour you from watching as you can still have fun with the details and dub stilted dialog.

Luke Williams' (John Ruby) grandfather (Chandler Hill) dies in some backwater location. Was he the kindly old gentleman the Luke remembers or is he part of a cabal which includes Dr. Sheffield (Gary-7) and who knows whom?

Is there a potential love interest or just friends sharing the secrets of a good life. Is the baddy the last person you would suspect or right out in the open?

Watch for the fun but do not get your hopes up there this is anything more than what you see.

If you can look beyond the mediocre script, bad editing and awful acting, specially in the first scenes, then this movie is quite enjoyable.

Great characters and plot. The casting is quite good, and there's good chemistry between them. I am sorry this story didn't get a better budget and more experienced professionals to make it shine. This could become a classic or even a series pilot as someone suggested. I think it can still be remade and it should! It let me hungry for more. I could binge watch 10 seasons of this if it gets made into a series.

Also, I love the Diego character by the way. Pablo Castelbranco was nice pick for it. I also wish the Mitch charcater was better developed.

Imagine you're 12 years old. You and your friends are given a budget of $20,000 to make a movie, but you don't have access to anybody who has ever written or made a movie before. You come up with puzzles to solve that either make absolutely no sense at all, or are so simple that your 8 year old brother could solve them. This would be a perfect summary of this movie. The acting is terrible. The plot is worse. There is absolutely no character development. It's unfortunately 88 minutes of my life that I will never get back.
