Wow, so cheap for a night ticket? It costs me $9 to go to a movie at night, and almost $7 for a matinee.

Well, the theater here only has two screen, an antique sound system, terribly unforgiving (though roomy) seating, and may be older than your parents.

Oh, that sucks. We have a Rave Motion Pictures, which is probably why it costs so damn much. I mean, it's all stadium seating and almost brand-new everything.

If it was worth it to watch on a crappy theater at $6, then I must assume that it'll be worth it to get up early enough to catch a matinee. XD

So personally, I was unimpressed. It didn't feel true to the original. My least favorite easily.

Saw it tonight, loved it. Of course, I'm pretty easy to please. To me, it felt like an Indiana Jones movie. That's all you can really ask of it.

Liked Mutt too, and wished Marion had more to do. Glad she got to throw a couple punches though. At least I think she did. My memory in that regard is a little unlcear.

Because he was a ridiculous nonsense of a character whose only purpose was to provide inane comments and highlight in his character everything that was wrong with Temple of Doom as compared to the other two.
He was the Jar-Jar Binks of Indiana Jones in other words.

I just came back from watching it and I have to say it was not what people hyped it to be. Never mind the aliens, what about surviving a nuclear blast by hiding in a fridge? There's only so much suspension of disbelief one can take in a movie like this.

However, not being an Indy fan, I enjoyed it. It was mindless fun, more especifically, the kind of fun one gets from watching a The Mummy movie. It was not badarse (or even sensical), but the action scenes made me laugh and I thought it was okay. Worth the trip to the theater.

yeah, there were definitely several parts that were completely over the top. The dialogue was pretty hilarious, though. I tend to agree, it seemed to not fit in with the other movies as well as it could have.

To echo everybody else, better than Temple but not as good as Raiders or Crusade.

However, better than Temple is enough for me to recommend this movie. Not being the worst in an amazing series puts it at least as a really good movie. In fact, if you don't go in there unintentionally comparing it to Raiders and Crusade (which were both basically flawless), its quite an amazing little flick.
