Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Nearly 20 years after riding his last Crusade, Harrison Ford makes a welcome return as archaeologist/relic hunter Indiana Jones in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, an action-packed fourth installment that's, in a nutshell, less memorable than the first three but great nostalgia for fans of the series. Producer George Lucas and screenwriter David Koepp (War of the Worlds) set the film during the cold war, as the Soviets--replacing Nazis as Indy's villains of choice and led by a sword-wielding Cate Blanchett with black bob and sunglasses--are in pursuit of a crystal skull, which has mystical powers related to a city of gold. After escaping from them in a spectacular opening action sequence, Indy is coerced to head to Peru at the behest of a young greaser (Shia LaBeouf) whose friend--and Indy's colleague--Professor Oxley (John Hurt) has been captured for his knowledge of the skull's whereabouts. Whatever secrets the skull holds are tertiary; its reveal is the weakest part of the movie, as the CGI effects that inevitably accompany it feel jarring next to the boulder-rolling world of Indy audiences knew and loved. There's plenty of comedy, delightful stunts--ants play a deadly role here--and the return of Raiders love interest Karen Allen as Marion Ravenwood, once shrill but now softened, giving her ex-love bemused glances and eye-rolls as he huffs his way to save the day. Which brings us to Ford: bullwhip still in hand, he's a little creakier, a lot grayer, but still twice the action hero of anyone in film today. With all the anticipation and hype leading up to the film's release, perhaps no reunion is sweeter than that of Ford with the role that fits him as snugly as that fedora hat. --Ellen A. Kim

Rating: - Left the Biblical themes behind for tired old typical one.
Without giving away the end i will just say you are better off passing on this movie. Indy has always been my fav movie charecter but this movie ruined the memory.
I even thought George Lucas was brilliant for his historic films. Seeing this i realized what a 1 trick Pony he really is.
I wanted to give it 1 star. I have waved all my friends/family away. There is a reason the movie is already in the Budget Bin for a new release. It gets 2 stars for nostalgia only.

Rating: - Indy's Back
After a 15-year hiatus, Harrison Ford has reprised his best role as the swash-buckling, fedora-wearing archaeologist/university professor Indiana Jones. This time, Indy's up against Russian agents led by a sword wielding female commander, played by Cate Blanchett. The two groups are in pursuit of a crystal skull, which has powers related to a mythical city of gold.

Indy, along with his partner Mac, were captured by the Russians in Mexico. Upon returning to the U.S., Indy and the Russians ... Read More

Rating: - A somewhat different kind of Indy movie...
Before I saw this my mother and some others said this was'nt as good as the first three Indy movies. And I have to agree, they were right. Me and my brothers grew up in the 80's 90's on the Indiana Jones series. I do understand Harrison Ford is ageing and can't do all the action that he use to do. Sad Sean Connery was not in the film, although you do see him in the photo aswell as Marcus on Indy's desk. But this was'nt a totally bad movie either, it had its moments good and bad. Be cool if Harrison ... Read More

Rating: - Let down
Horrible way to end the Indiana Jones franchise. This is by far the worse movie in the franchise. I'd rank them from best to worse as 1-Raiders, 2-Last Crusade, 3-Temple of Doom, 4-Crystal Skull.

You'd think Spielberg/Lucas and company would create better films as they got older and more experience. /shrug

Rating: - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
"Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" is the fourth installment in the Indiana Jones series and it follows the same storyline and formula as it's three predecessors. All I heard about this film before I watched it was that it didn't compare to the originals and that the special effects were terrible. Well it is true the film didn't compare to the originals but, the film was still enjoyable and keep my interest. As for the special effects, they may have not been the best but, they fit the lighthearted atmosphere ... Read More
