The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice

**1/2 - Seeing as I have been both a musician and film star (well, I used to own some musical instruments and was once an extra in someone’s student film), I feel that I am eminently qualified to judge the artistic content of any movie that I watch. Keeping that in mind, I find that this third of three movies in the “Librarian” series of made-for-TNT flicks has very little artistic content, pretty much just like its two predecessors. It would be a grand feat indeed if a self-identified “Film by Jonathan Frakes” was ever of above-average artistic merit and, as one would expect, “TL:CotJC” (as I hope it will be referred to as from here on out) is the epitome of average. But - again like the first two films in the series – the purpose here is not to be a piece of art, but instead to provide a fairly entertaining 90-minute diversion. And despite its foray even deeper into the world of the supernatural than film number two – with vampires, magic spells, teleportation, and more – this succeeds in its aim to be a mildly enjoyable adventure film with some laughs.
