At the beginning of "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" Indiana Jones dies in the explosion of a nuclear bomb. This is followed by a very long dream sequence in which he suddenly has an annoying son (Shia LaBeouf) and is looking for aliens. At least, that's the only way I can explain why this movie sucks so much. Maybe the main character just doesn't work at an older age, but I didn't like much else either. Cate Blanchett has rarely been worse, and the rest of the cast doesn't really work either. At most, I could take something positive from the return of Karen Allen. The biggest problem at the end, however, is that there is simply no sense of adventure. And with that, the film doesn't even begin to live up to its predecessors.
