Nineteen years later, he’s cracking his whip again, and many things have changed ... but some have remained the same. Again, the world is at a precipice, this time caused by the specter of nuclear annihilation, and Indy’s struggle is once again to ensure that a precious, mysterious object remains safe from those bent on destroying humanity. --© Paramount Pictures [More]

Reviews for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull may not be Raiders of the Lost Ark, but it's hardly Spielberg and Lucas raping your childhood hero.
For years, we've been told that Spielberg, Lucas, and Ford were considering doing another Indiana Jones film, but that they were waiting on the right script. Well, I for one am still waiting.
as close to an encyclopedia of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull as fans could wish for
Thank your lucky stars that Harrison Ford still has the charisma to reinvent one of the most-beloved characters in screen history.
This packed double disc DVD does address some of the film's missteps with candid looks at the pre, filming and post production process.
Indiana goes about his business shake-rattle-and-rolling around the tropics and cracking secret codes and heads alike, as abracadabra escapades, Elvis jive, brainiacs and Cold War KGB agents collide. So does Indy 4 rock? Da, Daddy-O.
It's still fun, mind you, but not as much fun as we might have hoped. (Blu-ray Edition)
