After long hibernation for 19 years, finally Indiana Jones is back with his new adventure on 22nd May, 2008 in theaters worldwide. This time, he's hunting for a mystical crystal skull in the Amazonian jungle -- and reuniting with a lost love. This 3rd sequel is packed with excitement, romance, humor and amazing special effects. Not too shabby for Indy's first adventure in nearly two decades!
This 4th Indiana installment surely let me down; it didn't really live up to my expectations. After 19 years, it seemed to lost a significant portion of its magic charm.
Despite all the weak slapstick and deflated tension, and some of the sequences which is too goofy to work as action scene and not funny enough to be comedy, Indy IV is still a fun movie to spend your relaxing time. What made me disappointed is that most of the ideas here are not so sparkling as it supposed (is expected) to be, can-easily-be-guessed surprises, and the ENDING! what a lame scene... I was hoping for something better from Spielberg and producer George Lucas...
It might not be as good as we expected but it's still a worthy successor to those earlier three films in the series. I peg Kingdom of the Crystal Skull below all of its predecessors. But however, Indy still rocks! It's worthy enough to sit and spend 2 hours and 15 minutes for a fun & adventurous summer movie like this.
I scored "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" a whip cracking 8/10.
