I went with some Hash buddies to see the movie last night - and loved every minute of it - during the movie - but was left strangely flat afterwards.
Was it because of the incredibly long fight scene in the jungle? Was it because of the annoyingly stupid Mutt character who unlike Indiana revelled in his stupidity? Was it because of the strangeness of seeing a loved character so aged? Is it because I too am older and more cynical?
No - I think that this Indiana Jones film broke the unwritten rule of success that the other 3 movies established – In each of the other three it was the mysteries of the past and the wonder of past civilizations ability to have mastered such power and to achieved so much that was the hidden star of the film that left me, at least, so uplifted…
It is sad that George Lucas broke that rule with the latest/last Indiana Jones film…
