Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

She Said:

So, I saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull twice. The first time was at a midnight showing with a group and the second time was on a Friday night date night with HIM. The second time around I did not like LOVE or HATE it more than the first time, I just picked up on a few little things that I didn't notice the first time. For example, before we meet Mutt in his Brando-esque entrance, we here "IN-DY" coming from the train instead of "Choo-Choo."

Anyways, I liked this movie. I'm not going to say its a cinematic feat or that the plot was revolutionary. I do think that it fits well into the Indy series and people who say that it doesn't are not realists in my opinion. It has the same cheesy/funny dialog and somewhat unrealistic yet exciting scenarios. I mean just take the "three times it falls"..um yeah, you'd be dead bud.

But, the point is that is why we love Indiana Jones. He is basically a superhero but Marvel never bought them out. He goes by Henry and wears his glasses and his hair parted to the side during the day, then he gets his whip and fedora and he's ready to go as the Indy we all love.

On another note, I've been a Shia LaBeouf fan sine his days of Evens Stevens. I was very excited to see him in this role and I thought he did the character well. His character COULD evolve into a Indy-like character but first he'd definitely have to go back to school!

I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoyed ANY of the past Indy flicks or for people who enjoy a popcorn movie. If you don't know what a popcorn movie is....you probably shouldn't go see it!
