Movie Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

 

This is my 2nd movie review, with the 1st one done on ‘The Bucket List”, a movie by Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson.

This is one movie that I just couldn’t wait to see, and it is the latest Indiana Jones!

Out of 5 marks, I will give it a 3.5…

While it was entertaining, it was not as good as “National Treasure” with Nicolas Cage.

I feel that ‘National Treasure’ had a more stimulating storyline, with more puzzles, riddles and action that was more absorbing.

Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones has definitely aged a lot. Coming back with his whip and typical ‘Indie’ hat, the show is still packed with intrigue and adventure.

One could not help noticing the significantly fewer action scenes for Ford per se. I suspect that he can’t really handle the action anymore. as he is in his mid-60s by now.

However, how can one hate ‘INDIE”?

Hey! I practically grew up with this guy and his movies, and he will always have that special “Super-hero” status in my heart. Coupled with that winning score by John Williams, it is a definite winning combination. Hearing and seeing the action does definitely bring back a nostalgia about the “good old days”

If you haven’t watched the movie, I believe that it is worth watching, and a must for all ‘INDIE’ fans!

Just to let u know, there seems to be lots of ‘die-hard INDIE’ fans out there…Just check out this parody that one of these fans posted on Youtube.
