For those of us who experienced the phenomenon that was "Raiders" when it first came out, I don't think there's a movie that Spielberg and company could have made that wouldn't be disappointing. I'll be interested to see how those who didn't see the originals feel about this new installment. Frankly, I think this film was too much of everything...too big, too loud, too much over the top action. The third Indy film found its equilibrium (after stumbling in Temple of Doom) by reigning in the action and mayhem, and giving Indy a truly meaningful quest. This newest film felt too calculated, and didn't have the spontaneous, light feel of the first and third films. Still, not a total disappointment. Harrison Ford looks great and seem to be enjoying himself. I have to say that the dialogue between him and Marion felt rather stiff, though. If you love the Indy franchise, you should definitely see the film...but you would anyway, wouldn't you?
Yes, I recommend this movie.
