Indaina Jones and the Kingdom of theCrystal Skull

If you are a fan of the Indiana Jones series (as I am), you may be in for a disappointment for the latest installment of the heroic archeologist. The best word that describes this movie is "thin" While Harrison Ford carries the character forward 20 years quite well, the rest of the movie seems almost like a recycling of the previous best parts. The plot which is suppose to create tension and drive the story is overly convoluted, lacks any real urgency, is frequently contradictory, and often doesn't make any sense at all. If that kind of thing doesn't bother you (as it does me), you will probably enjoy the rest of the typically excellent action scenes, wry humor, scary creatures, and familiar friends and villians. It has been said that production for the 4th Indy movie was delayed for years while they searched for the right script... that this is what they waited for seems harder to believe than Indy raicing Soviet agents for a long lost Alien skull that will give them unlimited power.
Overall this movie is a C+ The disappointment you feel is knowing that with a just a bit more work (rewriting the script and plot) it could have been an A.

No, I do not recommend this movie.
