didn't really take much away from the movie for me.... - Michael Gartenberg
yeah, you could tell that there is some backlot shooting, but it didn't really take a lot out of the experience for me. I don't know if it was more or less than the original, but I think it was one aspect that helped it fit perfectly with the original trilogy. - Will
“absolutely brilliant - more 'oh yeah right' moments than you could shake a stick at. Harrison looks all of his 65 years but he's still very credible as an action hero. ”
highly entertaining, classic indy, they stayed away from religious relics this time round. X-files meets Indy. - tanya
I have to say I was a bit disappointed. The fun was still there, but I thought the whole premise was hokey. No basis in reality. This one was my least favorite of all of them. My overall ranking: 1) Raiders 2)Last Crusade 3) Temple of Doom and 4) the Crystal Skull - Lionel Menchaca
I was going to say I disagree with tanya, because I was going to say Raiders and the Last Crusade at least have historical relevance, but she's right... it's really from a religious aspect. - Lionel Menchaca
One other thing I was disappointed in was Shia Lebouf's character. Didn't buy the whole greaser thing.. thought that was kinda weak. - Lionel Menchaca
I thought seeing Indy's upbringing in the last Crusade (River Phoenix as young Indy running into his house with Sean Connery studying up on the Holy Grail) seemed much more believable. Feels like they just picked the greaser thing out of the blue for Indy's son. - Lionel Menchaca
the aliens were a little... odd... seems Spielberg did this already and did it better but great fun.... love the snake seen - Michael Gartenberg
I found the CG a radical departure from the first three films. Much akin to the new star wars trilogy (episodes 1-3) compared to the classics (episodes 4-6). - Jeremiah Owyang
I felt like they worked hard to keep most of the VG consistent with what's come before in Indy. Sure, the *spoiler*'s at the end were heavy CG'd but the way the villain dies was pulled straight from Ark of the Covenant, and I thought the rest of the effects were pretty well integrated as well - Michael Morisy
I thought the CG was a little overdone at times (the ants are an example), but overall, I thought it was pretty well integrated. - Lionel Menchaca
I mean, it wasn't any more overdone than claymation in the infamous Holy Grail scene, right? ;) - Michael Morisy
