David McK (3562 KP) rated Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008) in Movies

Jul 13, 2019 (Updated Apr 28, 2020)

Just about everybody's pick for their least-favourite Indiana Jones film, I personally feel the main problem with this was the move away from the religion-based relics of the previous films (The Ark of the Covenant? The Sankara Stones? The Holy Grail) towards science-fiction, with the main driver of the plot being remains recovered from Area 51.

Set in the 1950s, this no longer features Nazis as the main villains, instead moving on to the fear of the Russians ("Better Red than Dead!" as one banner says) that permeated American culture at that time, with an old flame of Indy's making a re-appearance and with Shia LaBeuof's character of Mutt all but set up to take on the role in future.

Oringal Sci-Fi classic

Close Encounters of the Third Kind- takes elements from the thing from anethor world, the war of the worlds and many other sci-fi movies and mix them all togther and the outcome is a excellent movie, directed by one of the great directors of all time- Steven Spilberg.

The Plot: Science fiction adventure about a group of people who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a "sunburn" from its bright lights to prove it. Roy refuses to accept an explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his life to pursue the truth about UFOs.

This is a must watch and must see film.
