Who saw Indy 4 today (5/22)? - Blu-ray Forum

wnicholas76 · 05-22-2008, 08:26 PM

I just came from seeing "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" today. Action-packed from start to finish, and then some! The movie ranks right up there with "Raiders of the Lost Ark"! Harrison Ford is great as always, Karen Allen makes a triumphant and welcome return to her Marion Ravenwood character, Cate Blanchett is one tough Russian broad, and Shia LaBeouf just flat-out surprised me!! I was at first skeptical of Shia LaBeouf being in the movie, but now I completely stand corrected! Go see it today, people! Now, before the Memorial Day crowds kick in!

Wow!!! Is it really that good??? I'll go and check it out when I can afford it.

There something u must remember.. . the movie is PG-13

Alot of folks thinking that they want Indiana Jones film to make it look like an R-rating movie.. with all that killing, blood, gore, u know.. i wish there was one but this movie is PG-13.. so it is not too violence but non-gore and non-bloody. But it is fun to watch.

This movie really mix up with bunch of stuff with visual effects.. I thought it wont be any visual effects going after the beginning of the film looks so old school then turn to digital. Well watch this with your family or if u a die hard Indy fans...

The film didnt dissapoint me and remember, Harrison Ford is old.

i think what he/she means is that some people are expecting an R rating because of the newer times and people's expectations are to high

I did, although I do NOT agree with any comparisons to Raiders.

PS3FAN · 05-23-2008, 05:26 AM

I was disapointed...not. That was possibly the best theater experience in my life. Really awesome film. Super action packed, great story, awesome sfx, and some good laughs. It brought back memories of raiders. I can't wait for it to come out on blu.

darkblueme · 05-23-2008, 05:39 AM

You know... I'm glad I read all of the hate for this movie in the other thread. It brought my expectations down so low that I really enjoyed the film.

Thanks!

It was an AWESOME time at the theater. Woooooo!!

jctash · 05-23-2008, 10:53 AM

Sorry for having an opinion, none the less it appears that I 'm definately not the only one disappointed by this trash. If you enjoyed it good for you, I'm just saying it was bad.no wait......really bad.

X400 · 05-23-2008, 11:02 AM

i wanted to see it today so bad :/ but gotta wait til friday... im sure it'll be nice and crammed in the theatres... wish they had a theatre that charged $30 a ticket just to keep the families with kids out ^^

richieb1971 · 05-23-2008, 11:03 AM

I heard Jaws is making a cameo appearance in IJ5

Just joking.

crazybat_07 · 05-23-2008, 05:11 PM

I saw it last night & it was a good movie!!!! I'd give it 4 stars out of 5!!!!! Can't wait for it on blu-ray!!!!

n90guy · 05-23-2008, 05:35 PM

Saw it yesterday and enjoyed it quite a bit. My only complaint is the VERY over used matte back grounds. I know Lucas had his hand in that and they should have blended better.

Mathus · 05-23-2008, 07:01 PM

I thought it stayed very true to the Indiana Jones franchise. If everyone is expecting it to be exactly like the older ones though they will be disappointed. Its a new age Indy.

How do you figure? It had less action, less comedy, and was way over the top and very unrealistic. How about the plot and ending? I was very disapointed.
