I saw Indiana Jones last night.....

Bennyshoe · May 22, 2008

and I hated it. I was so excited for it to start and that's about as excited as I got. The story was so odd and complex. The pacing of the movie was so slow. I kept waiting for it to get good. Lots and lots of talking and explaining. The action scenes were not bad. Harrison Ford is great as a young Indy but not when he's over 60 years old. Cate Blanchett as an evil Russian was way too over the top for me.

I walked in hoping for a great movie but left disappointed.

I'm sure it'll still make a ton of money at the box office this weekend though.

heard it sucked...:sad3:

Brock Landers · May 22, 2008

you REALLY have to suspend any kind of reality when watching it, so much more so than with the other Indy movies, and thats saying something.

All in all, probably the worst of the bunch

Brock Landers · May 22, 2008

I'd tell anyone to go see Iron Man over this movie, its 10X better

Bennyshoe · May 22, 2008

Definitely the worst of the bunch. yes you do have to suspend a lot of reality.....there is one scene which I will talk about...it's not a spoiler but if you don't want to know, then stop reading.

One scene Shia's character gets stuck up in a tree. He sees a bunch of monkey's and then they start swinging. Clearly he's never done that before in his life but he started swinging from vine to vine like a Tarzan. It just seemed so out of place.

I loved all the Indiana Jones movies and plan on going to the matinee on Friday to see the new one but heard mixed opinions on this one. I will have to find out for myself I guess.

I would go see Iron Man 10 more times in the theaters than seeing Indy once more.

shit... still going to watch, but i was hoping it would be as good as the first three

HinesWard86 · May 23, 2008

How does Shia Lebouf keep getting such good roles? He has no talent, brings nothing to the table. His agent must be a walking god.

Loved Iron man.. already bought advance tkts for Indiana...so im stuck seeing it tommorrow night...

i guess they wont miss my business since they made over $30,000,000 the first day. based on these reviews i will pass.

Bennyshoe · May 23, 2008

30 mil on the first day is huge and that's on a Thursday. Go see it for yourself if you are a die hard fan. You might enjoy it. It just wasn't for me. Waiting for the Dark Knight now. Can't wait for that movie.

honkee · May 23, 2008

shitty reviews which means the movie will probably be decent

aceduecetrey · May 23, 2008

Heard somehwere that they are already talking about 5, but with Ford taking a back seat to the other guy.

pretty strong seeing as it didnt open til around midnight , right ?

Objection · May 23, 2008

Saw it Thursday about 1pm central time
Harrison Ford is still a screen presence but overall the movie is kind of disappointing.

There's a hint in the movie that the kid will be taking over in upcoming movies

the other ones were much better..jmo %^_
