Thin plot does not do Indy justice

I will start by saying Raiders is my favorite movie of all time. Needless to say my expectations were very high for this newest installment, especially with Lucas/Spielberg at the helm and the excellent Karen Allen from Raiders back to bring toughness and sexiness to the female role. It was fun to see Ford swinging away on his whip battling a new set of foes again and there were some great action sequences. But the incredibly lame plot and the introduction of the annoying Shia LaBeouf made this installment a disappointment. It definitely had its moments, but overall the movie did not pace well and Karen Allen unfortunately was completely wasted with little given for her to do by the director and she was introduced much too late in the story. I hope they make another film and are able to get it right the next time...please do not make LaBeouf the new Indy...he lacks the charisma and likeability necessary for the role...River Phoenix knocked it out of the park in the Last Crusade so it is proven that it can be done. Find someone else to take the reins.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
