A disappointment on par with the Star Wars prequels. Here we're given a geriatric Indy, an out-of-character Marion, a vine-swinging Shia, tons of bad CGI, a snake-as-a-rope, stupid slapstick gags, aliens that aren't aliens, and (of course) nuking the fridge. On the plus side, Temple of Doom is no longer "the bad one" of the series.

Art department did a real good job but that's the only good thing to say about this one. The story is just ridiculous, the jokes are lame and I'm sorry to say this, but Harrison is just too old... And the worst part is not even the UFO (which is terrible) but Shia LaBeouf. He's supposed to look like a James Dean/Brando kinda guy but he's just awful...

- Too much CGI = no element of danger (see: Speaceship escape) - Cate Blanchett: beautiful woman, least threatening villain ever. Indy still helps her out anyways rather than gutpunch her. - CG Prairie Dogs? Smacks of George Lucas interference. - Useless characters: John Hurt is just an impediment, considering Jones is a long-tenured professor in ancient civ. and I didn't care enough about Ray Winstone to be shocked when he dodeca-crossed everyone. - So many more things.

None of the characters were really convincing (Ford is too old for this) and the dialogues were laughably bad. At times, I didn't know if John Hurt was playing a clown or a mental patient, and - wait - yep, monkeys fighting the Russians. Last but not least: is that a spaceship ?! Cut to my mind: "that's it, I'm outta here". Shame on you Lucas for milking this franchise even further and I can't believe I'm gonna say this but Spielberg lost it (loved the 1st and 3rd one btw). Sadly disappointed...

Yea, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was awesome. It has some of the most tightly choreographed action, fantastic set designs, all encompassed in an over-the-top adventure story making it hard not to simply fall in love with. Jones is back and Ford is spot-on playing him; doubters need not apply here. This may not be as good as Raiders but it isn't far from the other two, in fact it's possibly better. There's little keeping this from being THE summer movie, so don't hesitate and go see it.

Another stupendously good fun action adventure is something never to be turned down and, to an extent, The Crystal Skull delivers. I was surprised about the whole alien thing, but it actually didn't turn out anywhere near as badly as I thought it would and the idea was well handled. While The Crystal Skull is reminiscent of the great original Indiana Jones trilogy, it can't quite match up to what made the originals so great. It does however still thoroughly deserve the Indiana Jones title.

Wow. It started out with promise and then they left the warehouse. Then Shia LeBouf showed up. Then Karen Allen showed up and redeemed it a little. Then it got really stupid. Usually I describe this movie with two words, one of them being an expletive and the other being a spoiler so I won't say it here. Oh, and Harrison Ford looked like a grandpa in most of it.

Not bad. I'd put it on par with Die Hard 4 - decent popcorn movie that happens to star an action hero from your childhood, and not much more. I mean, it could've been two hours of Indiana Jones doing household chores, and I would've given it the same score. But I loved the fridge bit. But I will never, ever pay a cent to see an Indy movie starring LaBeouf. If that ever comes to light, I will stab people.

The aliens thing isn't as awful as it could've been, but...still pretty dumb. It's fun, and there are some legitimately interesting set pieces. Indy's still got charm, and the return of Karen Allen is nice, even if it is a gimmick.They really play up the 50's vibe here too. It's fun, but really there's too much campy and unbelievable shit here.. There's a scene where Indy survives a nuclear bomb by hiding in a fridge - no joke. Already that limits how good it can be.

When surviving a close-range nuclear explosion by hiding in a fridge is not the most implausible thing in the film, I think it's fair to say the film is quite bad. The swinging with the monkeys? The driving off a cliff and being gently lowered to the ground by a tree? The three waterfalls? Blanchett's Russki accent? LaBeouf's James Dean shtick? The awful CGI? Spaceships? Ray Winstone trying to act? These are all things I have major issues with.

Very disapointed with this one; the plot is not that great, even for an indy film; the CGI effects looked bad especially shia lebeouf swinging on vines with monkeys in the jungle. Shia lebeouf, nuff said. Marion is wasted in the film which is unfortunate because she was one of the more interesting characters within the indy films. the fridge scene. Overall, the film is a major disappointment for fans of the indiana jones films.

Indiana Jones and crystal skulls don't mix. They just don't. Sorry. Also, the fridge. The damned fridge. I never thought I would ask for more realism from Indy, but here we are. Why is everything so over the top? Pulpier than pulp. However, I still admit that every once in a while, something happened (some interplay between Ford and LaBeouf, usually) and I felt like the six-year old who saw Crusade for the first time. I'm sincerely thankful for that. I just wish it were more often. And fuck CGI!

For a Hollywood action flick? This is alright. For an Indiana Jones action flick? Quite sub par. The thing that made Indiana Jones great was that all the action looked at least somewhat possible. This movie completely throws that convention out the window into complete impossibility. And don't even get me started on the ending. More like Indiana Jones and the Mission to Mars. Hell Jones could've stayed home and let her have the skull and in the end the result would've been the same.

Crystal Skull shifts the franchise from the '30s to the '50s, and takes its cues more from '50s culture than the religious history elements the series is known for. But it still has the heart of an adventure serial, and makes for great fun. The puzzles lack creativity (most are solved just by holding the skull in front of something), but the action sequences are a blast and the characters are as enjoyable as ever. Easily as good as Temple of Doom, if not better.

Spielberg is the first director that I learned the name of. Last Crusade is at most the 5th movie I saw in theaters at age of 10. Laying aside any concern about objectivity I was craving to love this movie and feel that shiver I felt as a child. It neither dissappointed me, nor wiped my feet of the ground. Resembling every other shot and sequence in the series it somehow lacks the visual and sequantial creativity of the other installments. Still a classy blockbuster amongst others.

It retains the classic charm of Indiana Jones and it's not nearly as bad as people claim it to be. It's still much better than Temple of Doom. People who claim this is the worst probably haven't seen Temple of Doom lately to do a comparison.

Indy may be older, but he can still clear out an enemy vehicle like nobody's business. "Crystal Skull" isn't as good as the original movies, but considering that the Indy films are a property of the eighties revived for the twenty-first century, it's probably the best we could have hoped for. This is a big, fun summer blockbuster, the kind Spielberg can direct in his sleep (and, who knows, maybe he did). The men are men, the women are all plucky or androgynous, and the punches are really loud.

Hard to know exactly where to put it. It's certainly Indy, but my god Ford is old. John Hurt is marvellous, and the return of Karen Allen is pleasant. But.. aliens? spaceships? what? It seems Spielberg and Lucas have gone.. Spielberg and Lucas on it. Indy was never about science fiction, it was about historical marvel. Wish they would've kept it that way. Special effects are still great, and it's overall pleasing, if not entirely satisfying. Janitor cameo makes it all worth it though.

A typical Indiana Jones movie, in general I liked it, it's like seeing a long lost old friend again, but the movie could easily be made 10 years ago. The script must have been very exciting 15 years ago, but nowadays the roswell reference is like been-there-done-that. Also the pitching of LaBeouf as the 'new' Indiana Jones is annoying. He's an interesting actor, but doesn't cut it for me as the new 'indie'.

Entertaining but clearly lacking the magic of the previous installments. The new characters are mostly bland and forgettable (Blanchett is pretty good though), old characters like Marian aren't developed or used in an interesting way, and the plot is silly and confusing, even for an Indiana Jones movie. There were some nice action sequences, though, and it's nowhere near as bad as, say, the first two Star Wars prequels.

Sure, it's silly from the conception stage and the CGI and compositing are poor without fail, but it's a rollicking good time. The action is fluid and engaging and the set-up is fun, though aliens are just a shake of soluble salt over the classic dish of cultural appropriation (blah). It really does, for better and worse, feel like an old action movie, if more slickly and creatively filmed.

Complete with 3-D special effects and complex stunts not available in the previous films, Indiana Jones returns; and although it's lost some of its charm in the twenty-first century, it nonetheless is a worthy cinematic experience. While the acting near the beginning of this movie is laughable at best, as the movie progresses, it seems that the characters become more and more believable. Some may object the the extra-terrestrial nature, but I had no issue. Not as good as the others, but not bad.

As mind-blowingly stupid as this entire project was, it's really hard not to enjoy yourself when the Indy Jones music is playing and people are getting punched in the face. Would've been a decent action flick if it wasn't sullying the reputation of the original trilogy so badly. Cate Blanchett was good, as always; Harrison Ford was geriatric but still likeable; Shia LeBeouf was tolerable.

Over-the-top and unrealistic even by Indiana Jones standards, Crystal Skull is my least favourite Indiana Jones film, standing a hair above mediocre action-adventures like The Mummy and National Treasure. The decent first half and strong acting by Ford only exacerbate my frustrations with Crystal Skull. With more realism (within the framework of the Indiana Jones universe), less CGI, less fan service, more expansive sets, and more showing (less telling) Crystal Skull could be great.

A passable entry in the Indiana Jones series, though it is a little disappointing. The action is fun and there is plenty of humor. However, it doesn't feel quite like a true Indy movie. Without giving anything away, (but you do get this feel fairly early on anyway) it's much more Sci-Fi than the previous Indy movies have been. The original trilogy was all about mystical objects that had magical or theological powers. Here it isn't so much magic as science.

By the end, this ultra-silly fourth installment goes further off the rails than our nostalgia can save it from. "Crystal Skull" has to be Spielberg's sloppiest achievement in quite some time, which assuredly makes for a fun entertainment regardless. It will undoubtedly entertain any crowd, and to see Ford again (who is excellent here) in true-form is a treat all its own that may make it the powerhouse vehicle for many fans, but there's no doubt it can't hold a candle to the previous adventures.

I can't really think of anything wrong with this movie. It's in perfect Indy style, which is just as it should be, I think. It doesn't try to out-do it's previous movies (happily!), and maintains that charming mix of action, drama, and comedy. The special effects all seemed fitting for the plot, and I was happy with the way the "20 year gap" was handled. Well done! Hooray!:D

Yes, parts of this movie -- big parts -- are ridiculous, but there's nothing here *quite* as lame as Indy hitching a ride on a U-boat. Very much the conclusion to the series I would have wanted (at least I HOPE they leave well enough alone, now); a much better movie than I dared hope such a long-delayed sequel would be. Whatever its faults, well-made and very exciting

Like the latest installments of Star Wars, the focus is on CGI, with no attention paid to the script or character development. Boring and preposterous.

I must admit that Temple of Doom is my favorite Indy movie. The Nazploitation in the other two is little too heavy-handed for what is a fairly ridiculous series to begin with. But at least they mostly obeyed the laws of physics until now, and didn't descend into New Agey nonsense. This film is so bad that it makes the rest of the series look even worse.

Not even close to the other movies in the series. It was entertaining at times, but they ham fisted so many things into this film that I almost felt insulted at times. The scene in the warehouse with the ark was awful. The scene where he was swinging through the jungle was the worst. Anyway, it was fun at times.

Indy got older and sadly so did we. It's been unfairly critizised for the 'unrealistic' alien plot (Unlike the Ark of the Covanent. Which is real. And contains ghosts.), but while it's not as good as the previous films, particularly due to the characters stretched beyond their paper thin structure and/or years, there's enough Spielberg magic in here (Indy and the atom bomb is as iconic as anything in the franchise) to make it an okay successor. It's not the mileage, kid. It's just the years.

It's certainly not up to the standards set by the franchise, but it's also not the steaming pile of garbage I'd been led to believe. It still has the heart and soul of an Indiana Jones movie, and that's enough for me to at least enjoy. But there are some really, really bad or over-the-top silly moments that are certainly worth all the derision they receive.

Far from the biggest disaster to come out of Lucasfilm in the last few decades, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" is long-winded and unnecessary, a film that doesn't seem to grasp that its key appeal was once a dashing, youthful, adventurous protagonist and a tongue-in-cheek portrayal of a very real evil as his folly. But what captivated audiences thirty years ago is all but lost now, tired, flat, and lifeless. An artifact perhaps better left unearthed, Dr. Jones.

Not the best Indiana Jones movie - but not the worst either. Too bad this is the best they could come up with considering the time they had.

While it showed flashes it never fully felt like a real Indiana Jones movie. If I had to put a finger on why I would say that I felt there was way too much CGI. This movie gets dogged on a lot because it has a lot of unbelievable parts, and while some are justified (vine swinging and nuke surviving) can you honestly say there weren't ridiculous moments in the predecessors as well? It wasn't terrible but it had a standard to live up to and it just couldn't do it.

Definitely the worst Indiana Jones, but it's still Indiana Jones and I had fun with it. I enjoyed the nods to the series and seeing old faces, I didn't even mind LeBouf, the movie still has glimpses of the fun adventure of the earlier movies. It has its share of flaws though. Bad visual effects, plot that doesn't really go anywhere or feel consistent, and plot threads that are just dropped (like the FBI suspicions about Indy) are some of the worst offenders. It is good at times, but flawed.

That last thing I want to be is one of those jerks who equates child molestation with watching a crappy movie by claiming this raped my childhood. But i'll be damned if I didn't feel like that pedo-bearded sack of crap Lucas wasn't reaching for my special area with this limp half-hearted effort.

Ah, Indy. He's a bit older, the lighting is a touch too bloomy, there are a few CGI animals too many, but he's still Indy, and I got a retro rush out of watching him battle Commies and man-eating ants and natives and chase on jeeps and survive nuclear explosions and explore tombs and crack wise.

To be honest I begrudge giving this film as high a rating as I have because in places I can only describe it as daft, yet because of my love of Indy I still found some pleasure in it. If you like the indy series watch it otherwise give it a miss, its just totally over the top, they tried way too hard!

A must see for fans of the franchise. A pretty decent action flick featuring greats John Hurt, Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett. Has a very confusing story, but if you put that aside, it's a decent movie!

If there is a nuclear explosion, remember to hide inside a fridge that will surely protect you when everything else crumbles into pieces. Not really entertaining. You arent going to miss much by not watching this movie.
