Review of Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull (DVD)

Indies Back and looking Great

Advantages: Superb
Disadvantages: Dodgy Ending

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Some sarcastic and critical people have called this film 'Indiana Jones and The Milking of the 4th Cash Cow. The film as you might expect has a plethora of stars, Harrison Ford - Indiana Jones. Karen Allen - Marion Ravenwood. Shia LaBeouf - Mutt Willliams. John Hurt - Professor Oxley. Jim Broadbent Dean Charles Stanford. Kate Blanchett - Irina Spalko. Ray Winston - Mac George McHale. Notably ...
...Marcus (Denholm Mitchell Elliott) who died in 1992. A very brief synopsis of the story begins with Indie and Mac taken against their will to 'Area 51', where Clues lead them onwards ending up in the jungle. Along the way Indie will pick up a deranged John Hurt, an old flame and a unknown Son! I won't fill in the innards of the story because it really would spoil it for you. The soundtrack is nothing special apart of course from Indies theme tune. ...

Review of Indiana Jones - The Adventures Of Indiana Jones (Box Set) (DVD)

A BIG Improvement

Advantages: Lots of action
Disadvantages: Lack of plot

...Lost Ark we now follow Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) along with some new friends on another adventure. This time, Indiana has only just managed to escape from Shanghai with his life before being put on a rogue plane which crashes in India. While talking to the local villagers they discover that their children have been forced to work in mines at a very young age and they are subjected to torture on a daily basis at the hands of the priest Mola Ram. ...
...After recently watching the first Indiana Jones move Raiders Of The Lost Ark and being extremely dissatisfied with the lacklustre effort I didn’t exactly have high hopes for this film either however I wanted to see all three of the original movies after hearing such great things about them and after watching the 2008 adventure Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull and thoroughly enjoying it. So was this movie any better? Well to put it in laymen terms, yes! ...
