Good not Great

from Elizabethtown, KY
Overall, I feel that Spielberg and Lucas did a fine job in the culmination of the latest installment of the Indiana Jones franchise. The action sequences were exactly what one would expect from this genre (I was especially impressed with the car-chase sequence). I also appreciated the simple plugs, such as showing the ark of the covenant and Harrison Ford stating "I've got a bad feeling about this". I did, however, think that the climactic event after placing the crystal skull was almost too hokey, even for a sci-fi/action film like this one. I felt that this action veered away from what made "Indiana Jones" so great-the near believability. Aside from that quirk, the film was great! Harrison Ford, Shia Labeouf, Karen Allen, and of course Kate Blanchett pulled off remarkable performances. Again, a great film and I am curious to see how/if it branches off.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
