Still hard to beat 'Raiders'

While this film has all the usual Indiana Jones qualities, it also has more flaws. It could have been a lot worse, but it also could have been so much better. Take the scene where 'Mutt' is swinging by vines in the jungle... totally unbelievable; it would have made more sense, and been believable to the viewers, if 'Mutt' had run through the tree tops by going from branch to branch in the thick jungle growth, ala the way Indy had run from the Commies in the wherehouse earlier in the movie.... and would have led to more interesting stunts... swinging from vines was just dumb. Also, the ending did not work for me... it would have been better had the visitors just disappeared without showing their vessel... that just about ruined the whole film for me. But, if you want to see Indy, and you want to remember what it was like to see Indy the first time, go see it, just close your eyes during the final scenes... I wish I had.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
