Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull


Grade: 80%
(Relax! No spoilers here)

The newest Indy Jones flick had some great scenes and clever references. Some of the more notable scenes:

  • The motorcycle chase scene
  • The car chase and skull exchange in the jungle
  • The “rope” in the jungle
  • The reference to the first film in the government warehouse
  • Oh the ants, the ants. I loved the ants
  • The Star Wars reference

All of this was great and fitting for the likes of Indiana Jones. My wife and daughter were ecstatic that Marion made another appearance. The premise, in my opinion, was on par, but the climactic ending overplayed its hand. Just a bit too much if you ask me. It was still fun.
