A great Indiana Jones adventure

While this movie has a few flaws, all of the complaining about this movie is amazing. I was just thrilled to see Indiana Jones in action again, and even a 67 year old Harrison Ford can still kick serious ass. Indiana Jones is easily the coolest character in the history of movies. Setting the movie in the 1950s makes perfect sense and the plot involving "ancient aliens" is exactly the sort of thing Indiana Jones would get involved in. Everybody complains about the alien angle (mostly to bash George Lucas I guess for no real reason), but they only appear in the movie for about 30 seconds. The rest is classic Indiana Jones, with great action sequences and top notch technical credits. Its also perfect to have the character of Marion Ravenwood back and Shia Le Beouf if fine as well. Only flaws: Ditch the monkeys and the flying refrigerator. Otherwise, a great addition to the legacy of Indiana Jones. Hopefully they will make Indiana Jones 5, despite all the naysayers.
