Yesterday I saw this movie and It was kind of disappointed. Because all the actions where predictable. And the most of the actions / stunts where copied from the previous movies. I give this movie a 5.5 out of 10. This is my opinion.

No idea, but it was such a slog to watch, and so damn long. Some scenes Indy was dying from a gun shot wound to magically all better, to dying of the same gun shot wound again.
The only reason I watched 1923 in whole was Harrison Ford. Think I'd watch it if it was someone else? lol

So I watched a camrip to see how it is and, uh, it's pretty bad, imo.

Part 1: The first twenty minutes were okay, the de-aged Indy was fine, but the voice sounded like a bad dub as it's Harrison Ford as he is now (well, old).

Part 2: The modern world with Indy and Waller Bridge were just awkward and even depressing because she kept trying to make jokes ("and then I stole, that's called capitalism" uh uh uh so funny), try to sound smart, betrayed Indy (left him behind for the Nazis to sell the artifact), appear strong (jumped to the Nazis' car to try to steal back the artifact) while he's an old fragile guy... *sigh*

And at 40mins the black lady called the white guy the following: "You blew it. You trigger happy cracker." so nice to see anti-White racism normalized, huh. Smh.

Part 3: Time travel... Waller Bridge was really fucking annoying when she kept saying she knew what's best for Indy than he did himself.

And "Part 4" was back to the modern world again which is self-explanatory why he didn't want to come back (he lives in a small apartment which looks like a dump and his life sucks so if he had stayed with the Romans he'd have enjoyed his final years).

I did like Mads Mikkelsen and Antonio Banderas, but that was ultimately wasted potential as they didn't really do much for the movie (since this movie is more of forcing us to watch Waller Bridge acting and make bad jokes).

3.5/10 (and that's me being generous)

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
