Indiana Jones Crystal Skul, Yada Yada

A good movie. As I was watching it I was thinking about the concept of "Camp." It is campy. It is funny, it has some unbelievable situations that the old guy, Harrison Ford gets out of. There is even an illusion to Sean Connery.

The stunt work and the special effects are exceptional. It is not believable, but you leave that at the door for every Indy Jones movie. This one stands out among the best. The music score will have you humming the latest variation of the theme as you leave.

The movie is cast in the 50's instead of the 30's nd 40's of previous Indy additions. Those wicked Russians are the bad folks as well as the FBI in this addition. The ufo piece is covered here. The old romance is there. The new kid on the block plays a credible young Marlon Brando or James Dean role.

The temple has some surprises, and watch for the ants.. oh my the ants...

Get out and watch this movie if you can..

I thought the scene in the atomic "fake" village was priceless... I thought for sure he would find the root cellar, but what he did find was way "cooler"! :::laugh::::
