Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Directed by Steven Spielberg
Set during the Cold War, the Soviets—led by sword-wielding Irina Spalko—are in search of a crystal skull which has supernatural powers related to a mystical Lost City of Gold. Indy is coerced to head to Peru at the behest of a young man whose friend—and Indy's colleague—Professor Oxley has been captured for his knowledge of the skull's whereabouts. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →I remember seeing Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull at the Arclight in Hollywood and after, taking the parking lot elevator up with a dude who had dressed up like Indy for the show, and I think about his dejected face like once a month. The vibe was disappointed anger.

neutral · AI labelView post →I like the joke in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull where Jones tells Marion that Mutt's a good kid and that she should get off his back about not finishing school, but then she tells him Mutt's his son and he immediately reverses and is upset about him not finishing school.

neutral · AI labelView post →In Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Mutt (Shia Laboeuf) rides what is clearly a modern (2008) Harley-Davidson Softail Springer instead of a period correct bike. It clearly has disc brakes, the softail cantilever rear end, and the Twin-Cam 88 engine in it. Laziest shit I ever saw.

I wanted to see whether it deserves its reputation, or it's unfairly maligned. Reader, it is WAY better than we remember. The definitive case:

negative · AI labelView post →I know if it's truly the worst movie, but the most dissapointed I ever felt coming out of a movie was Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I love everything about the first trilogy (except for aspects of ToD) but KCS was terrible. The monkeys, the CGI, the schlock. Was so bummed out

neutral · AI labelView post →2008 was the year Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was the 2nd highest grossing movie. 2008 was the year where radio was dominated by Chris Brown, and OneRepublic. 2008 was the year people thought GTAIV was a "game changer."
neutral · AI labelView post →You know what, it has been 18 years, I think it is enought time to rewatch Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and I think that, upon a rewatch, it is just fine. I wouldn't say it is as good as the original trilogy (maybe it is better than Temple of Doom?), but it is not a bad movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm going to tweak the OP a little bit to drop my movie unpopular opinion that I haven't gotten to share here and say: *Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull* is a damn fine, and more importantly, fun, addition the the franchise that deserves maybe a tenth of the hate it gets online. It's pulpy, it's cheesy, the writing swings between passable and unbelievable, and the plot is all of the place, both in tone and in narrative, but you know what: SO ARE ALL THE INDIANA JONES MOVIES!…

I'm here to tell you that it's better than you remember and we'd be lucky to get a halfway decent adventure movie like it these days.
