Tonight I went to see the new Indiana Jones movie, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull". Again, like "Sex and the City", I'd heard mixed reactions from various friends who had been to see the movie, but I really enjoyed it. Most of the criticism I'd heard surrounded the rather far-fetched storyline - but let's be honest, just how much more far-fetched is an Incan storyline about the possibility of Martians on earth compared to, ooh, let's see - a tribe of Thuggees who just happen to like ripping peoples hearts fair out of their chest (with no knives or tools or anything, no - just their bare hands!) or - how about this one? - drinking from a cup (the 'holy grail') in order to receive immortality... come on, these Indiana Jones plots are just about as far fetched as you can get! That's the joy of the movies - a bit of escapism...
So anyway, I really enjoyed the film, if you're an Indy fan too, and you haven't seen it yet - then what are you waiting for? Click here for a preview of the trailer...
