The first half of the movie is boring. The real action begins halfway through, but it's not that exciting. The movie is unfunny, everything that is supposed to make you laugh is forced and stupid.
The best part of the movie is near the end, when the adventure culminates with a grand finale. But the only reason it's impressive is because it's special effects. And computer special effects have never been the main reason for the existence (and success) of the series.
By the way, there's another impressive CGI: an atomic explosion at the beginning. Only we are left to wonder: was it necessary? It's not that is offensive. It's just that I think is a filler.
Ray Winstone is wasted in a clichéd role. John Hurt is simply out of place for an actor of his stature. Harrison Ford is still adequate for the character, he doesn't spoil the movie, as many would fear. But is really little that you can do in a movie which formula seems tired and unoriginal.
Sean Connery's decision of not to participate in this movie might be the wisest, since Keanu Reeves discarding Speed 2.
To throw a little X-files topic in the mix may have seemed a good idea, but they didn't know how to execute it. That's the problem with digesting a bad idea for a long time: out of exhaustion, it may seem like a good thing at some point. This is exactly what happened with this movie. As such, it should have never been released.
Be honest, Indiana Jones buffs. This one represents something different: in your heart, you know that is the first movie that you would not recommend. It's not up to the standard of the series.
