The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice is the last film of the three films of The Librarian franchise. It stars Noah Wyle as Flynn Carsen,the former perpetual college student who now works as a librarian that protects a secret collection of artifacts such as that from the likes of Vlad Dracula and his vampire hordes.Bob Newhart,Jane Curtin,Stana Katic and Bruce Davison co-stars.In this TV movie,Flynn Carson is on a mission to recover the historic Judas Chalice when a French beauty Simone rescues him from dying.Unknowingly,Simone is into something deviant and evil behind her charm and beauty.Also,Flynn goes into New Orleans and tries to search the rumored remains of Prince Vlad Dracul wherein evil people intends to bring him back to life.This is probably the best of the three films.It is funny,enjoyable and entertaining.Also,it was less cheesy and provided some realism into the story.We also have great performances from the cast.Worthy of mention is Bob Newheart who was nominated for an Emmy.What's also interesting is the fact that we have seen the complete transformation of Flynn Carsen from being a perpetual student to a worthy librarian that will go against the evildoers and risk his life for the protection of the memorable artifacts.Overall,this great TV sequel is probably one good reason why The Librarian is now an on-going TV series.

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

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.
