There simply isn't a whole lot of excitement being generated in this lackluster family adventure, though it tries oh so very hard. Jan 17, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The quest for the Midas Box never seems like more than a poor man's plot-engine substitute for Tolkien's One Ring. Jan 9, 2014 | Full Review…

The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box is an example of what happens when the filmmakers are less than scrupulous with the story's connective tissue and don't display affinity for the characters. Jan 16, 2019 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

Forgettable and flat, the film tries and fails at being an adventure that the entire family can enjoy. Aug 14, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

As a Part One it effectively disseminates exposition with enough adventure to keep our attention on these characters coming into their own. Jun 21, 2016 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

Michael Sheen, Lena Heady and Sam Neill are among the big names expecting a franchise, but they'll be lucky to get a mid-morning TV slot, let alone a sequel. Nov 21, 2014 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The visually stylish film feels like a combination of elements from other fantasy adventures, yet turns out more muddled and convoluted than suspenseful. Jan 31, 2014 | Full Review…

Unsophisticated and cartoonish, but well-cast and kid-friendly in an old-fashioned way. Jan 10, 2014 | Rating: 6.95/10 | Full Review…

The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box could somewhat aptly be described as National Treasure in Victorian England. That is to say, it has that distinct feeling of being a tenth-generation ripoff of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Jan 10, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

"This is horrible!" Sacha the seamstress says. "I have to get out of here!" She stole the thoughts right out of my brain as I watched Jonathan Newman's dismally directed, inert action movie The Adventurer: Curse of the Midas Box. Jan 9, 2014 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

'The Adventurer: The Curse of the Midas Box' (2014) fails to absorb enough tension to work on a dramatic level, with lazy writing and cheap visuals. Aneurin Barnard (in role of Mariah Mundi) is probably the only actor who turns in an affirmative performance out of the group of well-known actors like Michael Sheen, Sam Neill, Lena Headey, and Ioan Gruffudd who all just seem to be there. This is not the greatest kids' flick by far, but I think kids are the audience this is most suitable for and may find it the most enjoyable.
