    Default The new Indiana Jones

    I just saw it today... not too bad. I don't consider it as good as the past ones, but it doesn't really disrespect the series, either.

    Overall, I'd reccommend it if you are a fan of the series.

    Also, Shia LeBeouf must have the best agent ever since he is appearing in every single huge movie lately.

    two thumbs down, it didn't hold true to the caliber of previous movies... Though Harrison Ford is 65 years old and its been what 20 years since the last one.

    I loved it. I think it held well with the old ones except it went a little over the top with some of the special effects. This movie could ahve easily been in with the others in the same time period and no one would have known the difference.

    Ford is getting a bit old to be doing these movies but at the same time I think the story did a good job of aging Indy also. I admit that a couple of the fight scenes went a bit over the top though.

    Sly and Ford can't find "real" work so they have to do sequels to movies from the 80s.

    i went to go see this with my dad (big Indie fan). I liked it a lot, the movie did have some classic indiana jones moments. The ending was a little too much for me however, to me it was worth seeing.

    Two thumbs down.

    He figured everything out way to easy and aliens? That killed the whole movie for me. Feel like I wasted my money.

    i didnt like the theme as much as the old ones. most of the old ones were religion based( Arc, holy grail) this one was aliens.?????????? you cant have mystical religious stuff, AND mystical alien stuff. well i guess you can but i didnt like it. movie was still good though. Indiana being older didnt ruin the movie at all, they played that into the plot, i reccomend the movie.

    i look at it as a throwback film... honestly if you watched any of the other films today in the theater you probably think the concept is kinda weak sauce... i think they did a good job trying to place the film back in line with the previous films but it fell quite short in the dept of effects and ending. if you are a fan the ending will kill everything for you; rest of the film wasn't that bad just on par w/ the rest of the films - lots of typical indy style humor so don't expect much more then that.

    Lucus had a hand in it what do you expect... dude built the greatest trilogy of all times to kill it w/ trilogy of prequels.

    I'm a big a Harrison Ford fan as well as an Indiana Jones fan. No doubt I'll enjoy this film when I go see it.

    It was great in that it's an old concept and they were able to bring it forward. I wish the ending had been a bit different (the material, not the execution)

    i saw it last night. i thought it was pretty good but everything was concluded so quickly. it would have been so much better if they put a little extra effort into the little details.

    and you cant really get mad for it being a little off of the "classic" indiana jones theme, times change and so do people. im sure paramounts main idea of the movie was to cram in as many special effects as possible and make a ton of money off the "new croud" like younger kids and such.

    but it was still a good movie. anybody notice how similear leaubof looked to ford??

    after ford dies, he will take his place and continue the rest of the series.

    The movie was a bit farfetched. It is an Indiana Jones movie and quite entertaining at times though so I would recommend seeing it. All the other movies are kind of out there too, like the guy that rips your heart out through your chest?! Ha...classic.
