August 22, 2008The best "Indiana Jones" adventure in years! Fun, exciting, exhilarating, funny, & overall entertaining! Welcome back, Indy!
-
May 26, 2009Functional sequel lacking the Indy magic. Ford looks bored and shows none of the charm and wit which distinguished the series. It sticks closely to the winning formula other than this (vehicle chases etc) but is derailed by Lucas' ludicrous alien skull plot device. LaBeouf has po... ...( read more )

May 9, 2009No, the new Indiana Jones movie isn't perfect. Some decisions Spielberg and Lucas made will be criticized by fans of the original films, but those will probably be because of the last 15 minutes, and partially deservedly so. Then again I remember not being very happy with the sho... ...( read more )

March 22, 2009Absolutely spectacular, dazzeling and breathtaking. An awsome and adreniline-pumping action-packed adventure. Director, Steven Spielberg has yet again created another exhilerating non-stop action classic, by returining to the genre that made him famous. Indiana Jones is back and ... ...( read more )

July 3, 2009It lacks continuity and somehow the movie either proceeds too slowly, or sweeps by too quickly. Most of the time, one is left wondering if it really is a Spielberg direction. Once watch only! I mean it!

It's not bad, exactly. It's not a desecration of the franchise. It's just . . . tired. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is probably the worst of the Indiana Jones movies, but it's still pretty much a delight, from the beginning almost until the end. full review

Edward Havens, FilmJerk.com
Can all be summed up with the thought the film could have been much better, but it could have been much worse. full review

At his best, Spielberg is certainly capable of tapping, to almost unnerving degree, collective moods and fears and longings, both emotional and cultural. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
The action sequences are staged and edited sloppily, a far cry from the death-defying stuntman extravaganzas of yore. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Crystal Skull is hit-and-miss like the clunky 1984 sequel, Temple of Doom. And instead of the elegiac tone that lifted 1989's presumptive valedictory, The Last Crusade, director Steven Spielberg and p... full review

Armond White, The New York Press
This is Spielberg at his most pop and most amazing: turning the shiny American quotidian into an authentically numinous and strange experience. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
I can say that if you liked the other Indiana Jones movies, you will like this one, and that if you did not, there is no talking to you. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Even with the ponderous dialogue, there is considerable fun, and it's good to see that Indy, though slightly weary, still has the goods. full review

November 23, 2008I loved this film!! But I'm really confused coz if you watch some of the LEGO versions on Youtube, Karen Allen's eyes are bright blue even though she has brown eyes in real life, can anyone help me or am I just really thick???

November 20, 2008Goddamn it is truly good to see Indiana Jones back in action.I got the entire saga and i m so proud for having it.Indy is the motherfucking man.

October 19, 2008I liked this one, different to the old ones-not a classic, but appealed to a younger newer audience. Also liked the reference to his age, i think it reminded people that he's is getting older and therefore won't be displaying the same phsyical'action skills' as the others, also it opened the way for a new generation.

September 23, 2008I was kind of disappointed with this one.. it wasn't bad, but it just didn't feel like Indiana Jones to me. George Lucas wrote the story, and I usually love his stuff, but if he wants to write sci-fi,then he should stick to Star Wars. I understand the beliefs behind Crystal Skull, but they didn't actually have to bring it to life in the movie.
