I wouldn't take my almost-4-year-old to Indiana Jones, not because of anything gratuitous, but just because I think the level of explosions and whatnot would probably scare her. She found Kingpin in Spiderverse to be too scary, so that's about where we're at.
Isn't this new one close to three hours long, too? I think I'd be more worried about attention span, depending on the kid.
If that's three hours without my having to play with her Maileg mice then it's time well spent

On the other hand, I introduced my kiddo (8) to Indy at home and she liked it so maybe she will go w/ me.
she is a keeper
I hope so....I had it on and she couldn't stop watching it. When I asked if she liked it, she shrugged, but she kept watching. There's hope.

I saw this today. It’s ok. Probably better than Crystal Skull.

Too long and too many chase scenes.

Beginning was great.

This was great. It feels like the perfect ending to a trilogy with Raiders and Crusade. It’s better than Temple by a wide margin. I teared up at the end of this one. Seeing the boys ride off at the end of Crusade was a great ending for that movie, but this ending was the perfect ending for the character.

Just finished rewatching Last Crusade. I probably last watched it at least five years ago. Maybe ten. Not quite as good as I remember. A lot of cheesiness and some janky effects work. Still great but I prefer the more serious tone of Raiders.

Hate to nitpick but two guys get their heads chopped off by a giant sawblade and you need a cryptic grail diary hint to figure out you should duck?
