Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Fail.

I’m not going to write any spoilers (although the link below does) but I was pretty disappointed by the new Indiana Jones film – it seemed to me to suffer from ‘Later Career George Lucas’ syndrome; pointless, scatty and weird (and with gratuitous use of CGI & effects and not enough attention to the story) – very much like the three Star Wars prequels.

Anyway this article over at the-editing-room.com pretty much sums up how I felt about it all: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: The Abridged Script (some NSFW language).
