just back from the cinema. my son and I went to watch this today and I must say I really enjoyed it. Considering Harrison is getting on a bit - he is still pretty cool.

watching trailers - next film I want to see - Kung Fu Panda - looks hilarious.

anyway that is the excitement over for my weekend - carry on

[anna]

fantastic I wanted to know if this was any good before going and seeing it myself ;)

[Kinvig]

Just seen it.

Um, not sure what to make of it - it may be on a par with Temple of Doom.

The plot got kinda lost in all the action.

I liked all the subtle references to the Star Wars movies and to Back to the Future.

off to see the film with my brothers tonight. bearing in mind we must have watched the previous ones about 40 times each and can quote whole chunks, it seems like one of those things that has to be done! :lol:

[Drew Carey]

I'm off to watch it at 2pm as the weather is so poor.

[Miss Alpinestarhero]

I want to see it with matt but need to wait until the subtitled version comes on..

has anyone seen the Iron Man? Might see that later :D

I heard on the radio that the ending was a little wierd...but I'm sure it'll be worth a watch.

I have downloaded Iron Man, but not got round to wacthing it yet.

[Drew Carey]

Its good, but just bare in mind the whole point of it is to be Cheesy. lol

[northwind]

The middle's good. The start's a bit ropey, and the ending... Nah.







<spoilers>







Indiana Jones lives in the real world, or always used to, so I didn't like psychics, space aliens, magnets that inexplicably attract lead and some steel but not most, being blown for miles through the air in a fridge and escaping without a cut... All things which could have been removed or written around without hurting the film.

But the middle bits where it's just being Indy not the X-files, is pretty damn good. Especially once Harrison Ford remembers how to be Indy, in the first bit in the warehouse he just doesn't seem right at all.

I did enjoy it, but it's not a patch on Raiders or the Last Crusade, Indy's always been silly but not ridiculous, funny but not slapstick.

[Grinch]

I should have gone to watch Iron man.

[lukemillar]

I should have gone to watch Iron man.

Ironman is one of the best comic book adaptations I have seen. Definitely worth it


I have downloaded Iron Man, but not got round to wacthing it yet.

Go to the cinema and watch it you tight ****

[Fizzy Fish]

Agree with Northy - I enjoyed it but they did (unnecessarily) push the boundaries a bit too much at times!

[Balky001]

It's good for what it is, (very) light entertainment. My daughter and nephew are 11 and 12 and they loved it. It's Indi but a bit polished

That skull must have cost £3.99 to make

erm, Arks of the Covenant that kill nazis? Holy Grails that give life ever lasting & knights that are over a 1000 years old?

Not pushing it!!!!?????

[kitkat]

remember people its a 12a - aimed at kids. good harmless fun

Aye, but that's all mythology rather than science fiction, one fits in the film, one doesn't.

[Kinvig]

Aye, but that's all mythology rather than science fiction, one fits in the film, one doesn't.


there are (or were) tribers out there with elongated skulls & there are (or were ) tribes out there that believe that their gods came from "up there" in distant galaxies - surely that's mythology to some extent also!!! ;o)

[northwind]

Aye, fair point. Suppose what I'm really saying is it shouldn't have been in the film because I say so :cool: But I'm right :D Indy and spaceships don't mix.
