ok....just got back from the midnight showing.
Summary:
More last Crusade than Raiders
Script a step behind Temple of Doom.
It was fun though.
Won't ruin the plot or post a spoiler.
Great to see Harrison Ford and Karen Allen together again.
****** Editorial Comment - if you are a fan, don't read until after seeing it - *******
A little disappointed in that it won't be a best picture nominee - which for the younger folk was exactly the case when Raiders of the Lost Ark was released. If this is your only exposure to the franchise, then it won't get the credit that it deserves. Raiders of the Lost Ark is to action/adventure what Star Wars is to Sci Fi. Crystal Skull is similar to Phantom Menace in the analogy though.
