Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull



This will be the second time I've written a post for this - the first has disappeared into internet limbo. I'll make it short. I had fun. I had low expectations for this installment of the dusty franchise that were surpassed. I laughed (sometimes outloud) and was thrilled. None of the new characters made much of an impression, but I was impressed at how spry Indiana was (or his stunt men). I think that if all the naysayers would stop and think of all the pre-alien action in the film, they'd see it for what it was - an okay version of the hollywood big machine. The film may be over-concerned with it's own history, but for a casual night at the movies, it entertains.
