I'm sorry but for those of you who have seen it already, your reports don't seem all that great....it just seems like a ho hum movie....nothing really there to grab my attention or imagination to motivate me to get up and go see the thing.....I was hoping you guys would come back with shinning reviews and say, "don't even think get off your ass and go see the thing", but that doesn't seem to be the case.....yawn.

Nope. Its not that special; but of course it IS special because its Indiana Jones and he's back. And thats a thrill. But the movie itself could be better. Its not that it bad, oftentimes it is quite good, but its uneven. Sort of like how ROTS has some really great moments in it where you think "yeah, this is great!" but then theres those two or three "what? for real?" moments that take you out. But then the film has good acting and good dialog so maybe its more like Return of the Jedi. Yeah, thats what its like. The "wtf moments" are inappropriate silliness like Mutt swinging through the jungle like Tarzan and backflipping into a jeep, or when he's stradling two racing jeeps through the jungle spread-eagle while still doing a swordfight and hitting his balls on plants and bushes that they drive through, and then an ending that falls flat without satisfying all the needed character resolutions. I'd say it's a 3/5 rating. Honestly some people are saying its amazing but its not, they are just excited to see Indy on the screen, and I've read even more about people saying its awful and a piece of crap that defiles the franchise but thats totally untrue too, its just a fun adventure that entertains for 2 hours but is flawed and not a classic the way the other 3 were. If you didn't expect that then I think you had unrealistic expectations here.
