Indian Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Review
19 years. Movies were different, so were our views on them. The latest installment of Indian Jones, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, tries hard to bring back the nostalgic feeling of an adventure flick in a time where CGI is everything, and explaining plot is a must! While there were no “How did the villains know that or get there!?” scenes some of the action scenes, while entertaining and most certainly following Indies footsteps, were a stretch and full of the usual “How could they miss!” comments - Something we tell ourselves we HAVE to accept, but in reality could have been done better, a bit more realistic.
I thought it was an enjoyable movie, I felt like I was watching a new age old age Indian Jones and though not perfect, it was carried over decent enough to be able to overlook the few mistakes and accept the usual things you need to accept, just cause you gotta!
