INDIANA JONES & THE CRYSTAL SKULL


So I went and saw the new Indiana Jones movie last night and it definitely stayed true to the Indiana Jones formula. It had the over the top plot points. The slap dick humor. The Russians replaced the Germans it was all pretty standard. I thought it was a decent flick but I think that the plot wasn't as good as either "Raiders of the Lost Ark" or "The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" but it was definitely better then "Temple of Doom". The ending was kind of weak as well but over all it was a movie worth watching. Surprisingly Shia LaBeouf outshined Harrison Ford and if he were to take over the franchise it wouldn't be to bad. I don't claim to be a movie critic but i think was an average blockbuster movie with decent acting. The plot was a little thin but it was made up for with its grand scale and its respect for the pattern that the originals established. I would go with 2 out of 5 stars for this movie. Worth seeing if you are bored.
