Beware of Seconds

Jett hadn’t seen Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, so we caught it yesterday at the UGC Les Halles. (19 euros for two, or roughly $28 US.) It sank in estimation on my end. I was half-okay, half-unsatisfied with it after the 5.18 Cannes screening. Yesterday’s second viewing convinced me that it’s just too silly and George Lucas-y. Anyone who had a fairly good time after seeing it last week or weekend….don’t go a second time! No film infected with the Lucas-collaboration virus ages like fine wine. Precisely the opposite, in fact.
