Cheap Indiana Jones film
26 June 2016
Some of what the harsh reviewers say is true about his film. It is cheap, the FX are pretty bad and the script is not memorable. I don't think the acting is as terrible as some say, I think it was just done as a fun and friendly project so these fine actors weren't so much 'phoning it in' as 'relaxing and enjoying themselves'. The plot isn't original - nerdy, perpetual student is forced to confront the big, bad world and gets a job in the magical library (pretty much a Warehouse 13 rip off - depending on which came first). The library is robbed and he must try to find the other two pieces of the artefact before the villain does. He teams up with a great looking woman who at first despises him but then comes to love him. A great film this isn't, but I found it fun and charming - if cheap. Sort of the movie equivalent sweet wine that you get out of a cardboard box - it's not great but you don't mind drinking it either.
