Your typical interesting, fun, Indiana Jones story

I have heard reviews stating that this movie broke no "new ground." I'm not sure what that means exactly, because I thought the blending of different historical elements, tying eras together, as well as bringing us up to speed on the world of Indy characters since the last movie were very clever and fun. The action scenes were great. Harrison Ford is amazing, being able to do those stunts while in his mid-60s. Also, we are left with the clear potential to see a continuation of the Indy franchise. As for those who gave this movie average or low reviews, I believe they came in with unrealistic expectations and a memory of previous Indy movies that was probably recalling them as if they were perfect. Sometimes that happens when you get away from something you liked. Years later your memory of it somehow idealizes the situation, forgetting anything that was not perfect. In reality, those past movies were excellent, but had some flaws as well. In fact most, if not all, movies do have room for critique. But, the bottom line is that I do not believe very many can name a better action adventure movie in the last 10 years than the Crystal Skull.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
