So I saw it with my girlfriend last night and it is definitely worth seeing. I think it is a great movie, a little different than the past 3 but still has that Indiana Jones feel and there is plenty in it for the hardcore fans.

It was great. I liked it a lot. Not as good as Last Crusade but still top 2.

I shouldn't have said great. It wasn't a great movie! It was a good movie. It was a great Indiana Jones flick.

i've heard bad reviews on it from everyone i know who's seen it... i think i'll wait for the DVD

i thought they were gonna cast a new younger guy to play the role, someone like a Colin Farrell or Hugh Jackman... Harrison Ford's gotta be at least 60 now, no? can't imagine him doing any exciting stunts at his age (not that the actors actually do them but u know what i mean)

There shouldn't even be another Indiana Jones without Harrison Ford I'd rather see a 65 year old Ford than someone like Farrell or Jackman. Ford is Jones, that's all.

I have heard mixed reviews on the movie. It has a 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes which is pretty damn good but many fans are panning the movie. Then again it could just be extreme fanboys who were looking for perfection after waiting 19 years.

I will watch the movie and judge it for myself. Unless a movie looks like crap to me in the previews, then I will watch it. I don't listen to critics. Critics said Old School wasn't good and it's one of the best comedies I have ever seen. I think I'll watch Indy 4 tomorrow.

I totally agree - Ford is Jones and thats it. If they had replaced him I wouldnt have seen it.

The people who dont seem to like it are extreme fan boys probably expecting too much from a movie that is simply meant to entertain and be a little nostalgic. I stand by the movie, I think it was good and definitely worth seeing in the theater, Ford is not too old to play the role but he is getting there - they even joke about it in the film.

A couple of problems with Indiana Jones one this movie is at least 10 years overdue.

If your going to have Harrison star in it they should have done like the Last Crusade and had him play the elder character (similar to Sean Connery) and had a slightly older actor then Shia play his son.

Thirdly Harrison looks absolutely ancient he was still kind of hot but now he looks like a corpse to me.

I grew on all the Indiana Jones movies and loved them but I was kind of shocked and dismayed that they decided to make this film after all this time.

I saw it tonight and it was pretty good. The aliens was a bit over the top but Indiana Jones is a fantasy movie to begin with. It could have been worse. At least it's over for good now. Unless of course they have the crazy idea of continuing it with Shia Lebouf. *shudders*

I dunno if its over for good - you saw how it ended - I dont want to spoil it for others but I think it left the door open for Harrison to do it one more time. If they move ahead with Shia I will boycott the franchise.
