How depressing...

I am a huge Indy fan and I assumed the movie would not be as good as the other three. I still expected it to be thoroughly enjoyable.
For the first 30 minutes I found the story building and all the catching up acceptable and still had hopes that it would be an overall good movie. After the first hour I
began to lose hope.

Every Indy gimmick is done and overdone. The CGI elements of the movie only serve to make it seem more desperate and cheesy.
It made me think of Die Hard 4... just unbelievable. Don't get me wrong, I don't expect to go see a work of fiction and find it to be realistic by everyday standards. However, the previous Indy movies made me believe that Harrison Ford was this man who was capable of accomplishing the things that he did. The chase scenes were so exasperatingly silly that I would have walked out long before the end had it not been Indiana Jones.
The only well spent money for the movie was the $10 for Pretzel bites with cheese and a large soda.
I am not overly critical of movies and I can often find sufficient enjoyment where others think a movie is worthless. Trust me - if you are an Indiana Jones fan, don't see this movie.
That being said, if somebody had told me this was a terrible movie I would have discounted their opinion and went to see it anyhow. So if you go and see it don't say I didn't warn you.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
