This movie has a lot to live up to and does a pretty darn good job of it. I saw a review that made the point that if this was the first IJ movie rather than Raiders we would all be much more impressed with it. I think this is very true, comparing this movie to anything non-IJ is not quite fair to the other movies. There is so much history and reputation built up behind Indiana Jones it is very hard not to like this movie. My wife (8 moths pregnant) even enjoyed it!
