I saw the original Librarian movie when it came out and I think I liked it (that was a long time ago). I never knew there were any sequels until recently, when I was searching for adventure movies. This one is really fun, and a vast improvement over the second movie. It's got a nice Indiana Jones vibe, it's well paced and it's got just a little New Orleans color to it. Like in the second movie, the Librarian is unhappy and mopey, but whereas that second movie let the whole emotional-journey thing swamp the fun, this time it's just a nice setup for a light, fun little romp. The plot holds together well, the lead girl is good, there's a fun scene in a barbershop with Bob Newhart, and it's got vampires. What more could you want? I hope they make a forth one of these sometime.
