    Too much butter on that popcorn?

    POST A COMMENT

    'Love adventure films, and while this one -- Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull -- plays right to the audience...as an homage to all those 50's B-movies it's a safe film you can take your kids to...but, like eating Chinese food, I felt hungry for more an hour later. Die-hard fan's of this series will be scratching their heads asking "why" -- they waited 20 years for this...but, new fans will eat up this as a way to kill two hours.

    Harrison Ford is great, like an old friend you didn't know you'd missed; Shia LaBeouf didn't seem like he fit into this story -- maybe a last minute add on that if added should've been developed.

    All the Sci-fi aspect -- which to me would have given this bite, was way-to-watered-down for the masses.

    There's a big fear in big movies that audiences can't handle a meaty Sci-Fi story...so instead they sugar coat it and keep things moving...'don't get me wrong, this movie does move.

    You will not be bored, just don't expect the earth to move and you'll be fine...
