I was pumped for this movie. I was counting down the days until the midnight showing. As soon as it was announced that there was going to be a fourth Indiana Jones movie, I sat down and watched the first three. Then it finally arrived and I saw it, and I must saw all my anticipation was for nothing. Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has to be the worst of the series. It is a hodgepodge of silly references to the older movies, and the plot just doesn't make much sense. I miss the Indiana Jones who scoured the world trying to stop Germans from getting their hands on the "ultimate weapon". I don't want to spoil anything, but instead of Germans there are Russians, and there is no "ultimate weapon". There is a loud shia labeouf. There is a crazy old scientist. And there is no real cohesion. The ending really leaves something to be desired. It just doesn't have the epic feeling of the first three (or maybe just Raiders and Last Crusade). I walked away with a confused look on my face, and filled with disappointment.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
