Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett, Shia Labeouf
I was looking forward to watching this with some friends so I went to the cinema after an exam and watched a really great storyline fall apart in front of me.
Indy 4 picks off 19 years after the last Indy film (Last Crusade) in 1957. The Russians are blowing shit up at that time and everyone believes in aliens because of the recent Roswell activity.
The opening scenes are awesome and so are many of the scenes where we get to see Dr Henry Jones do his archelogical work, such as in Peru.
Unfortunatley, Shia Labeouf's character (I have no problem against the actor himself, just the character) brings down most of the film and the ending was just the nail in the coffin. If George Lucas wanted to mix Indy with Star Wars then he could have made an entirely new franchise, leave Indy alone to fight Nazis who want mythical objects, not outer-space paraphernalia.
I did enjoy the film, however, and it did have a funny death (as all Indy films should), it's just a shame about the ending. If they do make an Indy 5, I hope they leave aliens out of it.
