Indiana Jones lite continues, and the franchise now (already!) appears to have run out of ideas. They were always stealing from superior films, but now they're crossing genres to do so. Oh, and they dropped the part about the movies they use the plot of being better than this one. On the whole, this is the same level of quality as the first two, meaning mediocre. The storyline is fine, and with the formula firmly in place(long before the original of this trilogy came out, in fact), there are few surprises or twists. While there is something to it other than the adventure, it's entirely predictable. The acting is hit-and-miss. Katic(fans of her may want to watch this just for her) isn't half bad(and she certainly is hot), and Newhart gets to do his thing a little bit, for the tiny portion of this that he appears in. This isn't all that exciting, though some of the fighting and chasing is OK. The effects are decent at best, and their integration with the live-action footage is unimpressive. This takes place in New Orleans, and the music, fitting the environment, is enjoyable enough. The comic relief is irritating, and the humor in general is typically too silly to make you laugh. With that said, it is funny on occasion. There is mild violence and disturbing content in this. I recommend this to those who like the other two. 6/10

After retrieving the philosophical stone in an auction but losing his girlfriend, the librarian Flynn Carsen (Noah Wyle) has a breakdown and Charlene (Jane Curtin) and Judson (Bob Newhart) ask him to spend some days on vacation. Flynn travels to New Orleans and he has a crush on the French singer Simone Renoir (Stana Katic); however she discloses that she is the guardian of a key to access the Judas Chalice that is capable to resurrect vampires. Meanwhile the former Russian Minister of Defense Sergei Kubichek (Dikran Tulaine) is seeking the chalice to revive the vampire Vlad with the support of Professor Lazlo (Bruce Davison) and raise an army of undead to bring Russia back to the top of the world. When Simone reveals that she is a vampire, Flynn question whether she is not using him to reach the chalice and increase her power. "The Librarian: The Curse of the Judas Chalice" is another entertaining and amusing movie of the librarian Flynn Carsen, a sort of combination of Indiana Jones and 007. The story is very funny, with vampires, full of action and the gorgeous and sexy Stana Katic in the role of a 403 year-old vampire. Fans of adventure will certainly enjoy this film. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "O Guardião 3 – A Maldição do Cálice de Judas" ("The Guardian 3 - The Curse of the Judas Chalice")

Well I've enjoyed the other two parts of the movie , and I had high expectations for this one too. I wasn't wrong. If you want a funny adventure movie, filled with action and thrills this isn't a bad choice. It's a great one. Although I wouldn't let someone under 12 watching it, especially if it will be played at night. Some vampire scenes ( a few I have to say) will make your heart go faster. The plot of the movie is well constructed and it is light and refreshing. A young librarian who saves the world and fights vampires and former KGB agents ,just in time to rescue ( or in this case, be rescued by) the gorgeous maiden in distress. What can you want more for a Friday or Saturday evening movie ? I have to admit, there are some history issues, easter European medieval history ( I'm from Romania and I do know my history) but this will only make the movie interesting to watch. It will bring a new perspective over some boring stuff. To sum it up ... Go and rent this movie. It will be fun. How often do you see the nerd getting the gorgeous gall ?

I enjoyed the 2nd installment of this series better than the original movie (and I enjoyed the original a lot!), but I believe that they've improved yet again with the 3rd installment in the series."Curse of the Judas Chalice" had the same light hearted and comic view of Indianna Jones style adventure, but I found the plot to be deeper and more surprising. This series has a surprising character turn as part of its 'formula' in each installment. This time the surprise was two-fold. Although I saw one of them coming well in advance, the other one got me.These movies are ideal family fare ... amusing and entertaining for adults without including content inappropriate for even young children. Such movies are hard to find these days, but the Librarian series pulls it off solidly.
