Saw it. Liked it. Didn't love it. Agree with most of the above post and dont have much to add.

Still--helluva movie. It was so much fun to see Harrison Ford as Indy. Mutt doing Tarzan was by the far the worst thing in the franchise. But I liked the ending--Mutt almost puts the hat on but then Indy takes it. Its like Spielberg acknowledging: "I know you all think we're going to have Mutt continue the Indy franchise but I'm not dumb enough to actually do it." Was a fun psyche.

All in all--good film, but by far the worst of the four. But this is Indiana Jones. The worst of Indiana Jones is still better than the best of James Bond and the best of The Mummy combined. But then I love Temple of Doom, so maybe most will think its the second-best. We always over-estimate new films because its so much fun to see it on the big screen, so I do think this will be seen as the fourth-best though. Its a good film, just not a great film, but I'm glad enough for a good one. Looking forward to seeing it again.
