Movie Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

I love Indiana Jones and was excited to hear he was coming back. So, did he live up to my expectations? For the most part, yes. Indy is older (could he really be older than my father? No way!) but he still has his charm, wit, and sense of adventure. Most of the movie had me thinking I was glad he'd returned.
That being said, there was one part of the movie that (I'm trying not to spoil) was cheesy and rather un-Indiana Jones-y. I don't get how that part made it into this movie. For this reason, I'd say if you haven't yet seen any Indiana Jones movies (shame on you!), don't see this film first. It could quite possibly ruin the series for you. Start with the best, Raiders of the Lost Ark. If you've seen the others, go ahead and see this, too. You can then probably almost overlook the cheesy part.

Oh, and I'm a Shia LeBeauf fan, too, and would love to see him inherit the fedora.
