Indy's Still Got It!

I had heard bad things about the latest Indiana Jones movie. Bad things about Cate Blanchett, the storyline, etc. This made me sad, so I just didn't believe it. However, a little part of me was panicking as we walked into the movie theatre, sat down, and waited for the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones series to commence.
I'm going to say that I LOVED IT!!!!!!!! It was CRANTASTIC! OMG I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread! Something that was bugging the majority of the people that I talked to about the movie before I saw it for myself was the alien theme. This didn't bug me at all. I guess the definition of "alien" is different for everyone, because I don't think the presence of aliens in an Indiana Jones movie is any weirder than spirits that melt Nazi faces off...
Cate Blanchett did break her accent MULTIPLE times at the beginning of the film, but I thought she was pretty good for the rest of it. I am not a big Shia LaBeouf fan (sorry) but I didn't think he was unbearable to watch. Harrison Ford, on the other hand, was amazingly spectacular (in my personal opinion), and he was as funny and interesting to watch now as he was back in the days of Raiders. Welcome back, Dr. Jones!
Quick mention of the Lego game -- it's absolutely brilliant. We play it on our Wii, and it's the perfect mixture of teamwork and action-packed fighting. Plus, you're Lego people, so you never run out of lives! I mean, come on, does it get any better than that? *no Myrna, it doesn't!*
Favorite scene would have to be the car chase in the jungle with the vines and the jumping back and forth and the cliff and all that cool stuff! My other favorite part would have to be the end, but I won't spoil it for you! GO OUT AND SEE IT. Trust me, it is DEF worth it. :-)
