I'm looking forward to watching it. I didn't think I would hear anything bad about it so I am shocked that bad things have been said!

Mom told me never to talk to strangers, and you're pretty strange.

It may just be me. I have a track record for disliking attempted revivals of classic movies (Die Hard, Rocky, and Indiana Jones now to name a few) so maybe it's just that I expect a certain type of movie and when I don't get it, I am sadly disappointed.

That being said, both of the people I went to see it with also hated the new Indy movie, and there seemed to be alot of disappointed people leaving the threatre.

Wait, you hated Die Hard 4?

If so, I may just have to disregard everything you ever say about movies

I'll just have to see the movie for myself and hopefully I'll come back as the happiest person in the world.

I thought that die hard 4 was pretty good.

Live free or die hard.

This one right here is when I don't have to do it, which leaves nothing else but the one. No I don't think so. Not there.

No one should be deterred by this one thread, just go see it and judge for yourself.

Don't let my opinion prevent anyone from seeing it. I just think it was awful. There seem to be more people that liked it so maybe I missed something.

And yes, Constantine, I disliked Die Hard 4. Perhaps the two of us should never discuss movies together.

I saw the movie last night at midnight. It was great, it was a little more then two hours. The plot was really good so was the acting. Harrison Ford did wonders in this film and I was really impress with Shea LeBouef as well, he did an great job. I suggest everyone to go see it, it's worth the price of admission.

I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Babe Ruth

In the new one, they wanted to make it more action packed which ended up ruining the Indiana Jones feel for me.
Indiana Jones 4 was over the top but it knew it was. You could tell the movie knew it was over the top and that it acknowledged it. It was supposed to be a ride carrying a bit of the past and the future with it. It was for entertainment.

You know how good I thought it was? I'm seeing it again, now. Peace.

Vincent your the only person that I know that has seen it and dislike it, everyone else that I've talked to loved the movie. Like I mentioned I thought it was a great movie, and there was a lot of action it kept you on your feet at times in my opinion. Great film.
