In the Vanity Fair article about “Indian Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” George Lucas and Steven Spielberg agreed that the critics would not like their movie.  It appears that they were correct; yet, the critics at Cannes are much kinder than Lucas and Spielberg imagined.  Take a look at the Hollywood Reporter’s review by Kirk Honeycott and Variety’s review by Todd MCCarthy.

Honeycott seems to dislike the movie more than McCarthy.  To me McCarthy clearly likes the film while offering praise to Karen Allen, which I think she deserves.

Read the reviews for yourself and please post your thoughts. 

I am sure, as I know you are, “Indiana Jones” is going to score big time next week at the box office.
