Indiana Jones IV
What a festering turd of a movie.
Surviving a nuclear blast in a refrigerator??
Thank God For Beef pulling a random Tarzan and knowing instinctively how to fence??
The casual and completely incidental murder of indigenous peoples??
"Oh hai, you left me at the altar and I've been hiding our lovechild but you're cute so all is forgiven, let's kiss?""
And the overall message: want to have knowledge, and stay in school. But, you know, don't want to know too much or aliens will explode your head. ALIENS? CRYSTAL ALIENS??
WHAT???
And what a lame death for Cate Blanchette. The guy eaten by ants was far more memorable. But what good is a Indiana Jones movie without vaporizing some bad guys?
For the record, I can't fault the actors. I don't like Shia, and even he tried to give his character some depth. Pity it got lost under the millions of over-the-top, overly-CGIed action sequences. This movie was all style, no substance. Overstuffed, lacking charm and wit. It was all just one big set up for an amusement park ride. One with three ridiculous waterfall drops. BOO.
Gratuitous. Completely gratuitous. In my mind, this one ranks with Matrix III, Highlander II, and those sorry ass Star Wars prequels. IE, it doesn't exist.
Misters Lucas and Spielberg, be ashamed.
