 Rosie's Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of t
(Warning!! May contain spoilers)


It has been 20 years since The Last Crusaide premiered across America.  The movie dazzled the minds of Indy fans and wowed the taste buds of the average action adventure lover.  All in all it was a spetacular finale to what seemed the end of the Indiana Jones saga. 
But now in the 21st century we see the return of our history pursuing hero in The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.  Paced with plenty of action and family fun for all, this seemed to be one of the best movies of the year to any movie buff.  However, to the great sadness to those who have looked up to Jones as something of an icon, this movie comes as quite a dissapointment.  Age seemes to have caught up wih Indy, and though he remains smart in his humor, the mind boggeling action has died down.  He has seemed to of lost that action packed touch that we fell in love with. 
The addition of so many new characters mingled in with the old creates a slightly confusing atmostfear and can be distracting from the main storyline.  Some additions were not all bad.  Indiana's son, Mutt is brought into the story in sort of a creative way, even if it is predictable, and was a good idea. However, the idea did not fully develop, and was almost  pointless. And disapointingly the storyline revolves around something that the media is obsessed with.  Nothing other than Aliens.    This genre is over used and old, it has lost it's like.  It is almost as over used as the subject of Penguins. 
Overall the movie could have been better.  It is good for some people, and that is good, otherwise it would make no money.  But I say, wait for it to be released on DVD because it isn't worth the ticket money. 
I give this movie a thumbsdown

Well, you started out liking it:P and then you say it stinks. Take a look at my review for my opinion:P You didn't have to spoil the mystery:P

And, it wasn't all that bad nor so much weaker than the others(cuz they tried to make it match up to the others)...just not exciting enough for some maybe.

I suppose that is true. I myself expected more, and yes I did like it for the first 20min or so, but soon got distracted. I suppose I should have wrote the review a little better, I am new at this and will soon get the hang of it.
