Entertaining... but, overdone...

To be honest, I need to go back and watch the first three Indy movies because there is absolutely no realism to this movie whatsoever. My recollection was that the first three movies had some basis in reality (although I know a good portion of them were fanciful), but this one came out guns-A-blazing saying, "anything goes in this one!!!" Even the slower moments didn't quite make sense... ex. the KGB are chasing Indy all around the college campus where he teaches, but miss staking out his HOUSE? I know, this is a small detail, but one systematic of the entire film. It was also difficult feeling much for any of the characters because, ultimately, you knew that they were completely invincible. What was slightly annoying was that you could tell that they knew it too.
If you go in just wanting some action and wish for the nostalgic, you will enjoy this film (which I did at times). But, I really feel as if Spielberg and Lucas tried to do too much with this one… and, thus, lost some of the magic of the first.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
