High-Octane. Sci-fi. Throwback. (HST)
Final Verdict: The newest iteration to the Indiana Jones franchise stays very true to the original series, but it's also not afraid to take a few bold new steps. Some of the cheesier scenes almost ruin the entire affair, but they're forgiveable in leui of some very engaging action sequences. It's a fifty-fifty whether you'll love or hate the new sci-fi direction, but I think it's irrelevant in relation to the great characters, thrilling action sequences, and nostalgic storyline. Plus, Shia LaBeouf is a great addition to the series and he should play every character of every movie till he's dead. With everything taken into consideration however, it's probably the weakest film in the franchise.
Spoiler(s): The chick from the first film (actress Karen Allen) makes a dramatic return-- woo!
