November 20, 2008An older Indy but the same feel at least to me. A solid adventure film in the old school style of cinema from Lucas and Speilbergs youth.

March 14, 2012it isnt as good as the first 3 indie films and the ending was a bit disappointing but is worth a watch and still action packed with some laughs

March 5, 2012Despite what the nay-sayers say, and there are a lot of them, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is not quite as bad as they make it out to be. I'll admit straight up that it has problems. They stem mostly from some of the aspects of the story, the editing and the... read more

February 9, 2012What have they done to Indy???? someone tell me...tell me what I saw was a dream and there's a good Indy film out there, please :(
Where to start, oh my god!, its a flippin mess, utter shambles, the worst film Ive seen for ages. Jesus christ, from the very start I got shivers of... read more -
January 14, 2012Harrison Ford has still got it in him to return his landmark action hero to the screen and please old fans and new ones alike. To bad that everything else didn't turn out so well. Shia laBeouf was the worst choice for a supporting actor and a lot of the plot elements have been re... read more

October 30, 2011This is going to be short and simple. Crystal Skull isnt only the worst of the Indiana Jones films but nearly ruins the franchise for me. I love Spielbergs films and Herrison's work (I mean come on it's frickin Hans Solo) But Spielbergs urges to fit alians into everything he d... read more

October 26, 2011fb1664868775I can't believe I can say now that I couldn't sit through a Indiana Jones film. Spielberg, Lucas, Ford, you guys let me down.

October 25, 2011fb729949618I'm really indifferent about this one. First of all the original 3 are classic, and are full of their own unique style. This film has elements of those films, but doesn't quite give you the feeling of the old films. I also found this film to be the cheesiest out of all films, whi... read more

August 14, 2011I'm afraid I must agree with most of the audiences that didn't like this movie better than the previous trilogy.. To me, Spielberg too enforce himself to made another sequel to Indiana Jones' series, which is for me is better to end up in a trilogy.. The story itself just like th... read more

There's nothing but entertainment value here.

David Edelstein, New York Magazine
The action is the movie's raison d'être, of course, but the setups are wittier than the payoffs. Full Review

Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
Crystal Skull is a fun ride, but if we have to wait 19 years for the next one, that's OK by me. Full Review

Dana Stevens, Slate
Expecting Brando-esque menace or Dreyfus-ian uplift from the Indiana Jones tetralogy is like going to the candy counter at the mall multiplex and asking for some goat cheese and a nice cabernet. Full Review

Christopher Orr, New Republic
Even as the movie occasionally trips over its nostalgias, it's still a likable, if unremarkable, entertainment, a pleasant echo of past delights. Full Review

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
It's not bad, exactly. It's not a desecration of the franchise. It's just . . . tired. Full Review

Rick Groen, Globe and Mail
Nearly two decades after the last appearance, Indiana Jones is back, along with its diminishing returns and its aging principals and their trademark tools. Full Review

Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post
Ultimately, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is instant artifact. It's a vessel with a great deal of pictorial images on its surface. But its contents are long gone. Full Review

Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
The character and plot contrivances are dumber than ever, but this is basically vaudeville, not narrative, and the thrills keep coming. Full Review
