Product Description

From Amazon.com

Broadcast to record ratings on the TNT cable network, this Raiders-esque adventure does not go by the book, staring with its atypical action hero and his decidedly uncool profession. Flynn Carsen (Noah Wylie from E.R.) is a thirtysomething perpetual student who still lives with his mother (Olympia Dukakis). When his exasperated professor finally ejects him into the real world, Carsen's Holmesian deductive acumen lands him a job as the librarian at the Metropolitan Library. This is not an ordinary library. It houses history's most mythic artifacts, including the Ark of the Covenant, Pandora's Box, and the sword Excalibur. The fate of the world is in Carsen's hands ("That's so sad," he observes) when the dread Serpent Brotherhood steals the library's Spear of Destiny, and Carsen must retrieve it. His reluctant, and antagonistic, partner is Nicole (Sonya Walger), who is as skilled in martial arts as Carsen is schooled in the Dewey Decimal System. Bob Newhart and Jane Curtin add welcome comic relief, with Newhart, of all people, getting into the action by film's end. The humble hero (who would rather be known as "Flynn, the rather pleasant at parties"), somewhat cheesy special effects, and corny comedy make The Librarian a fun guilty pleasure. As Carsen proclaims, "Being a librarian is actually a cool job." This looks like the beginning of a beautiful franchise. --Donald Liebenson

4.0 out of 5 stars Could be a TV series pilot, Aug 13 2006

By	bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

Flynn Carsen (Noah Wyle) applies for an opening for a librarian. He does not have the background per-say but he nevertheless impresses the interviewer Charlene (Jane Curtin) and gets the job. Guided through the library by Judson (Bob Newhart) we find that there is a lot more to the library than one would guess.

Flynn barley gets his fee wet when a vital spear (Spear of Destiny) part has been pilfered by a mysterious evil doer. Now he must learn his job OJT with the help of an aloof stoic female (as there ever was such a thing). The mission is to obtain the rest of the spear and not let the evil doer assemble it.

In September of 1912 Adolph Hitler at the Hofburg Museum. Hitler later said "... I felt as though I myself had held it before in some earlier century of history. That I myself had once claimed it as my talisman of power and held the destiny of the world in my hands ..."

I actually had fun with this one. Could not believe the got so many people to do so many things. Bob Newhart makes an excellent ex-marine. How the ever got Olympia Dukakis to say her lines with a straight face we will never know. I think this actually is a project for out of work actors; but it worked for me. Sonya Walger did a great job for someone without a long track record.

This has been shown a few times on TV. However the DVD Contains scenes not broadcast.

I would say this is a fun way to pass time. I really doubt if it will ever become a series.
