My wife and I are big Indy fans and so we made sure to see the movie opening day. We were NOT disappointed at all. Sure it follows the "Indiana Jones formula" but, hey, that's what we went for! The movie is clever, very well -done, exciting, and just plain fun at time. I get amused at film critics who try to treat an action film like a fine piece of literature. This is pure and simple escapism, and delivers. Actually the one thing I didn't like was Kate Blanchet - not her acting, her presence. I found adding her to the mix to be distracting. I'd rather have seen a 'lesser light' play the part. I will see the movie again. It's hard to take everything in the first time. Go Indy!
