Watch Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Description
(from imdb.com)
I don’t see why so many people hated this film.
First of all, Harrison Ford simply isn’t as young as he used to be and as such he couldn’t do all the great action work he used to. Even if they had grafted pecs onto his body like they did with Ricardo Montalban in Wrath of Khan, he still wouldn’t be able to get into as many on-camera fight scenes.
Secondly, it may have favored super-scientific ideas over the mystical nature of the previous films, but it was still fantastic enough and it dealt with the true nature of his character, the archaeologist.
Third, people claim this film uses too much CGI. Usually these are the same people who complain if anything more elaborate than a sock puppet is used as a special effect in a film. So what? The effects in this film still looked better than most of the effects in the previous films – including the Last Crusade.
This is a good final chapter to the series. It could have been done 12 years earlier and been more entertaining and they wouldn’t have needed Indy’s young sidekick to fill in for the action sequences, but its still worth the price of a matinĂ©e.
