I challenge you to watch this and not smile when you see the hat, when hear the music, when the whip cracks...

I can't help thinking I'll thoroughly enjoy this even though some of the dialogue was a little cheesy!

Looks amazing. Really looking forward to seeing it now.

I liked the dialogue - a couple of one liners is pure Indiana.

My only fear is the possibility that aliens might so how be involved... I really hope they aren't!

*Adds release date to the diary*

This is one I'll be going to see, without a doubt.

I was at the cinema last night and the trailer was shown - first time I've seen it on the big screen and I was just as excited! There was a noticeable interest across the cinema so can't wait for May!

Saw it at the weekend and had a lot of fun. Fast-paced action, great dialogues, adventure - what else can you want from Indiana Jones?

Possible spoilering in this post...


well.. I went at 12.05am thursday to see it. I'm still not sure about it now to be honest. If it wasn't an Indiana Jones movie it'd probably be a different story.

Even though it didn't actually seem like an Indy movie anyway, more a Shia LeBouf movie with special guest star Indiana Jones. Dont get me wrong.. it's fun. But... Aliens!?!?

All in all, fun and still great to see Indy on the screen again. But definitely the weakest of the Indy movies.

Of course the plot was silly, but that was to be expected. I saw it yesterday and really enjoyed it, even though it was thoroughly unbelievable!!! I think it was so much fun because I'm a big fan of the three previous films, and there were lots of references to those that I liked. Worth the admission fee, but don't try and dissect the plot!
