I'm weary of all of this Indiana Jones talk. So, I won't do an audio review.

I'll just say these things:

It's good, but the script could have been improved in that the basic story could have been executed better (and I like the basic story). Spielberg should have hired someone other than David Koepp to write the movie.

Good action sequences, though, and Shia LeBeouf was much better than expected. And Harrison Ford hasn't been this engaged in for years.

Also, at one point in the movie Ford says to Cate Blanchett something like: "be careful what you wish for... you may just get it." A very ironic line in respects to the thousands of Indiana Jones fans who have or had incredibly high expectations for this movie.

And I don't know why people have problems remembering the title.

So there. My two cents. *I'm sure I just made up your mind for you.*

(Right: the funniest official still image released by Paramount for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Not because I condone violence against women, but because someone in the publicity department at Paramount did think on how odd releasing a picture like this would be.)
