It got mixed reviews, but I gotta say, I really liked it. People say it was a bit far fetched, but its like come on after Last Crusade (which is my fav) finding and drinking from the holy grail, there's not much more exploration that could top that.

Some people are criticizing the craziness of the stunts, but you need to put yrself back into the days of when you grew up watching it and it was all believeable. I'm sure kids probably loved it, and I loved it. I like how Indy was able to change with the times in the 50's and he's grown up and you gotta give Harrison Ford credit 65yrs old and still bad ass. All in all I liked it. I think it was a fitting ending. Like in Last Crusade, the riding into the sunset was way cool, but it made me sad cause its like well what happened next. But this explains it all. I think Lucas and Speilberg did a great job with the ending. Now you know what happens.

But yeah I think if you watch Temple of Doom, Raiders, and Last Crusade and then see this one it ends it well.

    I enjoyed the movie and I loved the first three, and this one was pretty good.

    Nah, I don't think so. I liked the movie quite a bit, but like most people, not so much the end. :/ I thought the action sequences were very well done, with a few exceptions. Regardless, I enjoyed the movie.

    I just downloaded and watched a crappy theater camcorder recording of it (Lucas will forgive me, I've bought three versions of the trilogy)..

    I liked it. It was fun!

    Can't wait to see it in the theater!


    Harry's getting old and it's sad because all of our action hero's are getting old, but his age didn't take anything away from the movie. It was still fun. Nothing more. Nothing more expected.

    The nerdyness in me has always wondered why Temple of Doom took place before Raiders.. Kind of makes me wonder if I should watch it first when watching all the movies.

    Sadly, I think you'll enjoy it a whole lot more if you're NOT a big fan the series :(
