Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Pros: Some good performances, action sequences and humour...
Cons: ... some bad performances, overlong action sequences and poor attempts at humour...

It’s been a ,long time since his last outing, but Indiana Jones is back with a bang. Well, maybe a little band. While Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull certainly isn’t up to the quality of his previous adventures, ...

Pros: Harrison Ford, Another good chapter, great fights and of course intriguing mystery and action
Cons: a lot of time has passed

The fourth Indiana Jones film staring Harrison Ford was a long time coming, with ideas being batted around for years, and a long inability to come up with a script that worked for everyone involved. Now, nearly 19 years after Indiana Jones and The ...

Pros: Indy's back, older, wiser, and better than ever.
Cons: None

For over a quarter-century, the name "Indiana Jones" has been synonymous with adventure, excitement, and fun, which are exactly the qualities that George Lucas and Steven Spielberg wanted to infuse into their three 1980s riffs on the old ...

Pros: Ford, Allen, LaBoeuf, Hurt, Winstone, good story and direction
Cons: Blanchett is merely adequate, Broadbent underused, story has predictable moments

"You're a teacher?" "Part time." Few, if any, part time teachers of the silver screen are as well known as Indiana Jones. In between teaching students and finding a quick moment to introduce himself to a young man while they're on the run, Indy has ...

Pros: Great acting, great action scenes, good humor throughout
Cons: None

I've read mixed reviews about this film, especially here on Epinions but I liked the movie. Sure, it was unrealistic and over-the-top but so were the first three Indy movies. What I think reviewers are forgetting is that this film is supposed to be ...

Pros: Harrison Ford is great.
Cons: The plot bogs down a lot at certain points.

One thing I’ve learned during my decade plus as a film critic is that some films are simply critic-proof. No matter what we say or write about them, people will still flock to theaters in order to see them firsthand despite warnings that they may not ...

Pros: Harrison's Indy, Karen's Marion, Cate's Spalko. High adventure, creepy artifacts, a lot of fun.
Cons: Some new characters don't work well, too much obvious CGI

I've been looking forward to the new Indiana Jones movie for some time now. With great trepidation. Would George Lucas "Jar Jar Binks" it up, like he did with the Star Wars prequels? Or would the combination of partner Steven Spielberg and star ...

Pros: Entertaining, good action, great acting, and it's another Indiana Jones
Cons: George Lucas' writing, the story, the love story (ewwwww)

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg have just made another hit movie in their Indiana Jones series. This is a series of movie that were inspired after serial's anything published, broadcast, etc., in short installments at regular intervals, as a ...

Pros: Some good stunts
Cons: Not many memorable scenes

Remember when The Mummy came out and a lot of people said it was like a slightly goofy version of an Indiana Jones movie? Well, I thought Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was like a slightly goofy version of a Mummy movie. ...

Pros: Ford, epic feel, score, funny and exciting
Cons: some grotesque moments

Harrison Ford has played a part in two of the most traumatizing movie scenes I've ever watched. As Han Solo in The Empire Strikes Back, he gets frozen in carbonite as Leia watches helplessly. I'm not sure why that deep-freeze bugged me so much ...

Pros: Lots of Action
Cons: Some of the humor was missing.

I grew up on Indiana Jones. From Raiders of the Lost Ark to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, I loved the swashbuckling adventures of the whip carrying treasure hunter portrayed by Harrison Ford. I have the DVD Box set in Wide Screen, and I have ...

Pros: Even 15 years on, the Raiders March still gets my blood pumping.
Cons: No Pat Roach for Indy to beat up this time around. :(

You may not know this, but there are two Steven Spielbergs. One of them is the lean, mean director hungry to prove himself, a director who pretty much owned the seventies and the eighties. Every movie he put his hands on - Duel, The Sugarland Express, ...

Pros: another great adventure with Professor Jones
Cons: too familiar...?

It’s odd to view a movie that comes many years after one titled the Last Crusade. It’s almost as if the filmmakers had a few more things they wanted to say, like in a good after-dinner conversation where the guests stay too long, and are a little tired ...

Pros: Thrills, chills, and spills, plus Commies, too!
Cons: Paper thin plot and wooden acting. What did you expect?

Yes, this is a real smorgasbord of a movie. It's been nineteen years since the last Indiana Jones installment, and it feels like we never left. Never left, that is, non-stop action, overdrawn bad guys (and women), varied and sundry jumps, leaps, ...

Pros: Great action, great adventure, please to see Ford and Allen
Cons: I don't like Le Beouf all that well, some will say unrealistic

This Memorial Day weekend was rather fun and refreshing. I did a whole lot of ‘collective nothing’ because it rained and stormed. Well, I guess we went out to dinner and lunch, I played some Keno at the local casino and we saw a couple of ...
