Cinema Science

Roger Ebert has posted his three and a half star review of Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull (the same rating he gave The Last Crusade). I am steering clear of the full review for fear of spoilers until I see this later in the week but I present you here with the opening paragraph, which gets me even more excited about the film. A film I am already giddy about.

"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Say it aloud. The very title causes the pulse to quicken, if you, like me, are a lover of pulp fiction. What I want is goofy action--lots of it. I want man-eating ants, swordfights between two people balanced on the backs of speeding jeeps, subterranean caverns of gold, vicious femme fatales, plunges down three waterfalls in a row, and the explanation for flying saucers. And throw in lots of monkeys.
