Saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull yesterday and the suspension of any reality is demanded. The audience is asked to believe right from the get go that elite Soviet special forces cannot shoot straight at almost point blank range.

Then Indy survives an atomic blast in a lead lined fridge that appears to also be indestructible and padded such to keep Prof Jones from being harmed from the fridge being blown into the air for miles and rolling to a stop. It would have been just as easy to have had the target test sample houses have bomb shelters Indy could have gone into and survived.

Not far into the film past that the FBI comes on like the Soviet KGB wished they could have, following the true Liberal Democrat myth that the 1950s was all Republican Big Brother Government enforcing the evil 'Red Scare.' and 'Black Listings' on any and all true Americans

It is a wonder Indy did not vomit like Old Faithful when he says in the film, "I like Ike."

God help all the kids who go see this over and over again not realizing the Leftist Elites continue to politicize any film to their Liberal Agenda. No wonder we are grown such a crop of idiots!

Don't know how nObama and Queen Michelle will react as the only non white faces shown are all savage barbarians. Then again, that would play into the Queen's saying the US is a mean country.

Here in my small Texas town the four-plex theater was not half-full even with the admission price being $2.25 for the first 4:30 PM showing.

All in all, in my humble opinion... the film was over priced.

I bought the first three Indy DVDs to watch with my seven year old as an introduction to the series. I hadn't seen them since they were in theaters.

Number one was good, old fashioned matinee serial movie-making. Two was downright sadistic and darn near unwatchable. I might not watch the third and it looks like I might not bother to see the new one either.

Thanks for the heads-up. Depressing. I hope Indy doesn’t end up kissing the Red villainess.
