In the tradition of previous "Indiana Jones" movies, this one did not disappoint. It was full of fast paced action from beginning to end. Harrison Ford was excellent as usual and made it hard to believe you were watching him in the same role almost 20 years later. How does the new Indiana Jones movie stack up with the other ones? I'd place it somewhere in the middle, but since I thought they were all great movies, that's still an affectionate praise. "Crystal Skull" is certainly a fun ride. We rate it 4-1/2 Stars.
DESCRIPTION: Hollywood icon Harrison Ford returns to the role of the adventurous archaeologist Indiana Jones nearly 20 years after he last donned the famous fedora and bullwhip to save the world from imminent peril. This adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg, is set in 1957, and pits an older and wiser Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) against agents of the Soviet Union, led by Irina Spalko (Cate Blanchett), in the search for a crystal skull. Indy is aided by his former lover Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen), the greaser Mutt Williams (Shia LaBeouf), and fellow archaeologist Mac (Ray Winstone). John Hurt and Jim Broadbent also play fellow academics. It should be noted that, in order to keep aesthetic continuity with the previous films, the crew relied on traditional stuntwork instead of computer-generated stunt doubles.
