Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Reviews? Why does it have to be reviews?
This was an early Now Playing Podcast review, shorter and spoiler-free. It was not intended to be part of our Indiana Jones Retrospective.
After a 19-year absence, Harrison Ford cracks the whip once more in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This time, the fedora-wearing archaeologist heads into the South American jungle in search of mysterious crystal skulls, all while being hunted by Cold War-era Soviet agents with a taste for psychic weirdness. The film reunites audiences with one of cinema’s most beloved adventure heroes and promises globe-trotting action, supernatural mythology, and a heavy dose of nostalgia. A massive box office turnout seems inevitable, but the real question is whether this long-delayed sequel recaptures the magic of the original trilogy or trades on its legacy. Marjorie and Arnie dig into the action, the story choices, and the risks of reviving a classic franchise after nearly two decades away.
