Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

Cast: Harrison Ford (Indiana Jones), Cate Blanchett (Col. Dr. Irina Spalko), Karen Allen (Marion Ravenwood), Shia LaBeouf (Mutt Williams), John Hurt (Professor Harold 'Ox' Oxley)
For complete information, see IMDb's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull page.

The latest installment in the Indiana Jones series definitely left me feeling a bit cheated. Harrison Ford is still a very attractive Indy and is still in great shape, so they could have done a great job with this movie. I really don't see why they bothered spending so much money and resurrecting the series for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It doesn't seem like it was worth the effort. The new Die Hard movie was very well done and totally worth seeing in a movie theatre. At the time, I was bummed that I didn't somehow manage to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in a theatre. Now, I'm glad I didn't make the extra effort. Perhaps I would have enjoyed the movie more in a theatre and would have been more impressed, but I was disappointed in this movie and I'm glad I didn't bother working my schedule around it.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is worth renting, clearly. If you liked the other Indy movies, you should see the latest installment, but I wouldn't say it needs to be at the top of your rental queue.

Grade: C+
