Good concept, poorly executed.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

While it's considered the worst Indiana Jones movie there was a lot of competition as the original three where all amazing movies. Do I agree, we'll see.Good things
The motorcycle chase- classic Indy action at its finest. It wasn't over the top and never felt cartoony
The Warehouse fight- more classic Indy action with cars, guns and hand to hand combats. While it does have some corny sequences and deaths with that rocket thing, it was a great way to start the movie
The Cafe- it manages to be suspenseful and funny in the short time we're there. The build up to the eventual motorcycle chase was handled perfectly and the actual fight inside, while short got a laugh.
Harrison Ford/Indiana Jones- he still got it. He felt just as energized and fun as the original three and was great to watch
Mutt- the idea of a rebellious teen having to work along side Indy was an interesting choice and it was fun to watch him bounce of Indy. While he won't work as a way to hand the Torch, I'm glad he was here
Irina Spalko- as the main villain of the movie, she was arguably the most fun to watch. She felt like the best fit for the movie, as someone like Belloq or Donovan wouldn't work for the plot with all the communism and a Mola Ram type villain had no place. She is arguably the most efficient villain in the serious being the only one to make Indy unconsciously help her without help of voodoo (Mola Ram). And she knows how to sword fight. Always a plus.
The sets- the sets in this movie looks gorgeous and real. They did a good job with them
The temple itself- while the last third of the movie is weaker then the first parts, there is still the scenes in the temple, at least the first half of them. The Pilar's were amazing to see, the stairs going into the wall was heart pounding, the door opening was cool and lastly the throne room looked great.
Ants- while the worst creepy crawly out of the four, it is the most deadly.
The story- I always wanted Indy to find a Lost city in South America and the thing about aliens coming and having the people build a city out of pure gold works on a historical level as there are many story's of this sort of thing happening.
The quicksand pit- it was funny. Nothing elseMeh stuff
The marriage- boring but an ok ending for the plot they were going for.
Oxley- he was ok I guess. Nothing really special
The cemetery scenes- its entertaining and boring all at once. How do you do that
The soundtrack- it was a mixed bag, with some great tracks and some mediocre at bestBad stuff
Marion- Why is she back. Come on it should just have been a cameo. She was just smiling and laughing the whole time, there was just no tension in the scenes with her.
The tree bending- ??????
The main ending- bad CGI aliens and UFOs coming out of the ground and macs confusing death and Spalkos what happened to her death and knowledge being the treasure and water blasting everyone out made this the worst ending in the series
Monkeys- No point to be here and looks bad
Nuke the fridge- everyone's already trashed this so moving on
The scenes in Indy's house- BORING
Communist side plot- it was so unimportant it makes you wonder why it was even includedConclusion
So yeah, I think it is the worst in the series like they majority of people, but it is still a good movie. While it's there more bad things then the other movies, there were many good things too. It certainly was a fun time and a worthy entry into the legandary series
7/10If I missed anything I felt it wasn't important enough for me to include

I was extremely excited to hear about this film, as The Indiana Jones series had been such a massive part of my childhood, and then I went to the theatre to see it.........Well, first of all Indy just is getting on isn't he? Harrison Ford is no longer quite as swashbuckling as we remember, and although it's good to know the best of us all get old eventually, it was a tad disconcerting to see him in such a way.As for the film itself, the plot was a bit harder to swallow than previous Indy films, as most of them had a degree of reality to them, so the suspension of disbelief was not so hard to come by, but this one might have pushed the limits a wee bit too far for me personally.There were some terrific action sequences, some amazing effects and scenes, but to try and compare this film to the other three in the series, it just doesn't hold up! Thanks for reading!

This movie is for those craving old school filmmaking of the early 90s. If you can accept it as a parody that doesn't seem like it is ACTUALLY trying to be a parody, then this movie is for you. Loved the old Indiana Jones movies. This one is ridiculous in not a good way.

The movie was okay until about halfway through, but it became progressively more stupid by the scene until, finally, it really jumped the shark at the end. Who could possibly have thought this movie was worth a rating above "5"? Maybe 12-year olds will like it, or people with the intelligence of a 12- year old.
