OUTSTANDING

This is not your "typical" Bollywood fare. This is true cinema. The filmakers have tried imitate the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie and have done so beautifully. The visuals are gritty and rough and in keeping with the right "feel" for the story. The story has many twists and turns and keeps you on your toes. A great watch. Vishal Bhardwaj has done a stellar job in putting this film together from the casting, to the cinematography, to the music, to the editing and last but certainly not least the art of story telling. This is a film not to be missed if you are lover of film as an art form. Certainly the best Hindi film I have seen and definitely on my list of all time favorites.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Fun Movie

As a huge fan of the original I was really excited to see this movie made. Love Harrison Ford anyway, but really love him as Indy. Thought it was great to get indy and Marion back together, although it was completely predictable and maybe even a little hokey. Also loved Shia Labouf as "junior". As for the plot, yes, it was far-fetched, but aren't they all. That's kinda what it's all about. Also, it is based on what some believe of the actual crytal skulls that have been found, it's not just something that George Lucas and Steven Spielberg pulled out of their rear-ends. That being said, the movie was a lot of fun with the same old Indy. Loved the references to previous films and just had a good time watching. Thought it was fun that we caught a glimpse of the Ark... Has me wanting to see more! Wish this wasn't the end for Indiana Jones. By far, not the best in the series, but still true to it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
