it was complete and utter crap.  GL and SS should be run over by a giant boulder chasing them.

I didn't hate it. They definitely wrapped everything up in it and shouldn't ever even consider a sequel.

It was "fun". I didn't love it, I thought the concept of the story was interesting, but it was definately very Hollywood. The scariest part was the ants!

SUCKED!  i knew it would, but my wife had to see it.  It was so weak in so many ways.  Some cute and funny parts, but basically made to sell merch and make some new ride at disney.

Im afraid to pay for it. in the trailer theres a scene where 50 something year old Indi, uses his whip to randomly run off the side of some structure& he lasso's something to swing like Tarzan to catch a moving car with 1 hand. That & there was so much CGI in just the commercial, I dont know man.

I saw it for $5.00 at the Kent theater on Coney Island Ave and Avenue H in Bklyn. On wednesdays in $5 and during the rest of the week its $7.50. They only play three movies at a time, but its nice to support the small time theaters.

It coulda been way better.  It was way too silly.  At least the own films the characters seemed to believe what was going on.  In this one, not so much.  Sigh...

I didn't hate it, but I wish I could have said I really liked it.

I enjoyed it. Naysayers are overthinking it or expecting too much. It maintains the same Indiana Jones spirit, but naturally it's a bit different with a geriatric Harrison Ford. If you "loved" the originals, you should "like" this one. If you don't at least enjoy it, then the last movie you truly loved seeing in the theater was likely "Capote". If this is the case, stay away from all action adventure flicks, as your expectations for films like this are higher than their oversized budgets.

plot was to linear--one big upward hill to the climax, and then it ends.  the first movie seemed to me to have many more twists and turns and ups and downs.
