Just came home from the movies. Lots of car and tuck-tuck chases, fights on a train, pretty good digital de-aging of Harrison Ford, and the lead actress has lots of spunk. But my favorite scene is when ...


SPOILER ALERT



















*****************










Marion returns. Guess sentimentality is what makes us return to this franchise.

1. We saw it yesterday. Loved it.

I’m a Mads Mikklesen fan and loved his character and performance.

2. I have not seen it, you should post "spoiler alert"

thanks

3. Wanna tell us the whole story so we don't have to go to the movie?

4. I saw it yesterday. It was great fun. I give it 4 stars.

5. no but when I do, I won't be surprised by that surprise you mentioned

[mainer]

6. Well it shouldn't be a surprise because Karen Allen's in the news

about how thrilled she was to be part of the movie

7. Everyone needs to see this to piss off a conservative.

8. There's a few minor changes that might have been made to the movie that would have made it...

... a 9 out of 10 for me.

Instead I'll give it a 7 for bumping me out of the "willing suspension of disbelief" zone a few times.

Nevertheless, after covid closed the theaters, I love going back to the movies again.

9. I found this thread yesterday but stayed away

knowing I was going to go see it this afternoon.

I liked it for the most part. It's not as good as the first or third installments, but it beats Temple of Doom in my book, and I may have liked it better than Crystal Skull, too. Not sure yet, I need to let it sit with me a bit.

10. Hello, Xavier Breath...

Just watched the movie, came here and found this thread. Well I had a really good time watching it. It was better than what I was expecting. Better than the previous one IMHO.

11. Upon futher reflection, I agree that it's better than Crystal Skull.

I'd rank them as:

1) Raiders
2) Last Crusade
3) Dial of Destiny
4) Crystal Skull
5) Temple of Doom

So, in line with the Vacation movies but opposite of the Star Trek features, the odd-numbered films are good and the even-numbered films are not.
