A Real Let Down :-(
PostedMay 23, 2008

from Lancaster, PA
Shia steals the show (not a bad thing, he does a decent job here). Too much CGI and silly bits. (Did you ever think you'd see computer-generated groundhogs in an Indiana Jones movie? Thanks, George Lucas.) Bad guys are non-threatening. Uninteresting artifact they're looking for that holds magical powers, but only shows those powers when it's convenient to the script. Final payoff at the end is lame and silly. Indy seems to be along for the ride in this one rather than being the adventurer making all the right moves. Way too much screentime of watching Indy thinking out loud. Ford and Allen are too old for this stuff. Their chemistry is forced and awkward. Like others have said: a wasted opportunity. We all wanted an exciting new Indy movie... instead we got the product of once-legendary / now-lazy filmmakers that have completely forgotten what makes a great Indiana Jones movie. (Hint: it's not CGI groundhogs.)
No, I do not recommend this movie.
