Keep An Open Mind
PostedMay 24, 2008

from Madison, WI
Overall I found the movie very funny, action packed, and adventurous like the other Indiana Jones films. I thought the acting was good and "in character". I loved the previous three films and genuinely liked this film. I know some Indy purists had issues with the plot and that it was too "out-there" but I liked it.
During the cold war the Russians actually were looking for physic warfare weapons, and I have always found the Nazca Indian and Nazca lines fascinating as well.
I thought they did a good job with the fact that Indie was older and had not only gone through his earlier adventures but was a part of world war II. We have to remember that this movie takes place 15 - 20 years after the original movies so Indie is suppose to be older, slower, and a little rusty. Like the swinging whip scene in the beginning or the sand pit scene.
There were some cheesy scenes, but the old films had cheesy scenes as well. Like what happens when they open the arc of the covenant or the scene where Indie and co. falls out of a plane in a raft down a mountain and survives. Also, the computer stuff doesn't bother me. That's modern day cinema.
All in all I found this film very entertaining and thought provoking. Just like I found the original three films. I loved at and recommend it to anybody. Just keep an open mind.
