Movie Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (**1/2 out of 4 stars)
Year of Release: 2008Country of Origin: USA
Director: Steven Spielberg
Cast: Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett, Shia LaBeouf, Karen Allen
Plot outline: Indiana Jones is called back into action when he becomes entangled in a Soviet plot to uncover the secret behind mysterious artifacts known as the Crystal Skulls (IMDb).
The story (**1/2 The story is engaging in its playing up to conspiracy and lost worlds, and the action scenes are spectacular. The liberal use of CGI is a bit disheartening.)
How the story unfolds (**1/2 The hype machine was in overdrive for this project, and the movie certainly had numerous reasons not to work. It’s not the best in the series by any means, but it delivers everything we, as Indy fans, could possibly want.)
The characters (**1/2)
The acting (**1/2)
Overall rating **1/2 out of 4 stars
