another clue: this person was trapped, together with his best friend, in the land of the dead for a good while, until another guy came and set him free. His friend wasn't set free though. They initially went there in search of a person which name appears in the matrix trilogy.

Correct, well done.
Theseus and is mate went to hades to fetch Persephone, but Hades invited them to a nice banquet before they went on their way. When they made to leave, they couldnt get up from the chairs 
Must be like those couches we had down in losjan back in the day 
Anyhow, Theseus was also the guy who found his way out of the minoan labyrinth by having his "clue tied to the entrance". But I guess that was just too fucking clever of me wasnt it...

Hint: One of the most expensive movies of its time, it featured a throng of extras, more than a thousand of which had to be bald.

yeah, I figured that others might be called the first tourist aswell. The guy i'm thinking about is a great deal older than this one.

That's the one
People are referring to him as the first tourist too. He was the first person to visit Egypt 440 BC as nothing more than a guy walking around and seeing the sights.
It's amazing (and a little scary) to think how much of what we know about this period is based directly and solely on what this imaginative - and to some, slightly gullable - wandering tourist has written down on his travels around the ancient world.

Name the movies:
The first movie is a comedy.
The second movie is a crime drama.
The main character in both movies share the same last name.
Both movies are from the 1990s.
The main actors of both movies are well-known to all of us, being regular picks in our "movie game quizzes".
