Consensus: Though the plot elements are certainly familiar, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull still delivers the thrills and Harrison Ford's return in the title role is more than welcome.

Reviews for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Spielberg proves once again that no one can direct an old-fashioned rollicking ride like he can.
05/21/08
It is the summer blockbuster's mother ship, built for speed but riding on fumes.
05/21/08
Is the whole thing preposterous? Yes. Is it a bit familiar and predictable? Possibly. Is it corny? OK, yes, a little bit. But again, it's fun and doesn't require too much thought.
05/21/08
An entertaining and inventive ride tailor-made for the summer movie season.
05/21/08
Offering fun, excitement, familiar things, new elements and roller coaster-ride adventure, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is all it promises to be.
05/21/08
Even after so much time away, this new film is easily the equivalent of its predecessors and perhaps the second best of the series. I loved watching it, and I can't wait to see it again.
05/21/08
As a continuation of a series that's captured the hearts of two generations over the last twenty-five odd years, it rocks.
05/21/08
You can't believe how badly I was waiting for this movie. You can't possibly imagine how badly I wish I'd never seen it.
05/21/08
Despite its many flaws, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is an enjoyable romp that does no harm to the character's legacy.
05/21/08
[George Lucas] and Steven Spielberg have earned back a lot of goodwill with this one. It's the only Spielberg movie in over a decade that actually ends when it's supposed to.
05/21/08
This is Spielberg at his most pop and most amazing: turning the shiny American quotidian into an authentically numinous and strange experience.
05/21/08
It’s as contrived and convoluted as all the other Indiana Jones movies, but not as much fun.
05/21/08
Top CriticYou definitely get your money's worth.
05/21/08
...Crystal Skull is a fine, rollicking, lightning-paced return to form for all involved...
05/21/08
Sitting through Steven Spielberg's slog down memory lane means waiting for surprise, waiting for delight, waiting for daylight after turgid trudges through Peruvian caves, and waiting for an abstract story to coalesce.
05/21/08
Top CriticIndiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull may be the slightest, least memorable entry in the franchise, but it's a franchise with a rather high bar, and the film's plentiful flaws do not overwhelm its pleasures.
05/21/08
The fourth chapter of the Indiana Jones chronicles feels repetitive and a little gassed, but it has too much bravura filmmaking, and just enough wit, to not recommend.
05/21/08
Top CriticSatisfying if not fully electrifying, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull offers fans all the familiar elements: bullwhip, fedora, ancient texts, hidden clues, obscure maps and cliffhanging moment atop cliffhanging moment.
05/21/08
As with any class reunion, the pleasure of this Indiana Jones entry isn't so much what happens, as who you're with.
