Almost as good as the first

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2008)

This movie does it. It brings back the feel of Raiders and adds more to it. Granted, it can never top the original Jones, but i comes very very close. To me, this and the first movie blow Temple of Doom and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull clean out of the water. Every Indy movie is entertaining to me, but this and the first are the only ones I can watch over and over again. Sean Connery is hilarious as Henry Jones Sr, and of course Harrison Ford is perfect as the unstoppable Indiana Jones. The opening sequence is perfect, giving the viewer a glimpse into the past of Indy and showing him/her how some things started. (the whip, hat, and fear of snakes) Over all, this movie comes as close to Raiders and Spielberg and Lucas will probably ever get. But who knows, hopefully they can make up for Crystal Skull with something a little more Indiana Jones-ish. Come on Indy 5, don't let us down.
