A Perfect Date Movie
PostedMay 25, 2008
Cannondale
from Philadelphia
Putting aside its clunky title, this latest Indiana Jones movie was a rollicking, high-spirited (and high-minded) and nearly perfect action movie that should have wide appeal. Spielberg and company capitalized on the Baby Boomers' penchant for nostalgia and hit themes which resonate with progressives. I note that two grumpy men in my party complained about the implausibility of the plot, the multiplicity of movie homages, and what they deemed to be over-the-top denouement, but I beg to differ. It was a joy to watch from the beginning to the finish. (There were some nasty bits, but I was blown away by the moviemaking magic involved in creating them). Perhaps the grumpy old men were annoyed, but have yet to realize, that Crystal Skull really is an action-packed chick flick (Indy hits hard and quotes Milton) trapped in the body of an action movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
