A fantastic film from start to finish . I was lucky enough to catch an advance screening of the fourth Indiana Jones movie over the weekend and I must admit spielberg provided a marvellous work after "War of The Worlds" . I must say I had my doubts but they were swiftly brushed to one side .

It wont be wrong to admit that I enjoyed every moment of the film; Spielberg seems to have found that pitch perfect balance between action, humor, and humanity that made Raiders so special. This isn't a flat out comedy like Last Crusade seemingly was, though there is still plenty of humorous moments in this film (surprisingly, very few jokes and gags actually fall flat).

This isn't two hours of non-stop action, as the film does take its time to establish the plot, detail the archaeological quests, and let us remember why we fell in love with these characters in the first place. In fact, the scenes with Marion Ravenwood and Indy together are gold. Don't get me wrong; a lot of the action is a blast.

The car chase scene in the jungle is a great piece of film-making, and the first scene with Mutt Williams and Indy leave a lasting impression. Great action doesn't have to come in newer, advanced looking CGI extravaganzas, as Spielberg proves that traditional action set pieces are still the most entertaining kind there is.

If there is anything Steven Spielberg can't do is make a bad film. Many of his films are all time classics including Jaws, E.T, Jurassic Park and of course the Indiana Jones trilogy, it has been almost 20 years since Harrison Ford has picked up his hat & whip but that entire wait was worth it.
