Relevant Information: The 4th Dr Jones film
Brief summary of the item: Set in 1953, it follows Dr Henry Jones Jr in his quest for El Dorado.
Good Points: - Great film. Concludes this generation of Indiana Jones well
- Fun
- Great action
- Pays homage to past characters Henry Sr and Marcus
- Good pace
- Explains more of Indy's history
- Sets up potential future sequels.

Bad Points: - Poor fights
- A bit of the first X-Files movie in it (I love the X-Files, but this is Indiana Jones)
- Poor acting by Karen Allen
- I'm not sure the family plot thing was necessary. It was certainly predictable.

General Comments: Stars Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Shia LeBoef, John Hurt and ALLAN DALE.

One more point that I'm not sure is positive or negatives: the stunts were often too far fetched even for Indy. Maybe this just adds to the fun.

Good Points: Yup a good easy night out. Sometimes you just want to go to the cinema and zombie out with some meaningless entertainment. This is just what I needed. I liked the alien involvement - it does get you thinking about some of mankind's unexplained mysteries - but it was all good clean fun. Ford's getting on a bit but played his part just fine.
Bad Points: The bad guys are shooting with phlegm bullets! Indy should have been dead after the first scene!
Some plot lines were bloody daft, and only Harrison Ford acted with any conviction at all. Poor casting, and a bit long as IJ films traditionally have always been.

General Comments: Go see. No need to go twice though ;)
