Made Me Want To Pay Attenion In History Class



I LOVED THIS MOVIE. Some Sequels are horriable but not this one. I had fun watching this. My girlfriend didnt think it was gonna be fun to watch (because it had to do with history) but we was glued to our seats watching this movie. The direction was on point, the story was great... I loved it. The difference between this film and the first is that Treasure hunter Benjamin Franklin Gates looks to discover the truth behind the assassination of Abraham Lincoln because he great great great great grandfather is being blamed for it so in order to clear his family name he has to uncover the mystery within the 18 pages missing from assassin John Wilkes Booth's diary. I wished I paid more attenion in history class because I enjoyed it. If you can mix fiction with reality...histroy class would of been more entertaning and seemed less boring.







This how ever, pissed me off! I actually went to theaters to see this with my girl. I was a fan of Indy growing up. I wanted to have the adventures he had. So I couldnt wait to see this film. The first hour had me strapped in my seat until they started to mention (SPOILER ALERT)Aliens. Aliens? In a Indiana Jones movie? Are you kidding me? What does aliens have to do with Indiana? Where's the history? The artifacts? Isnt Speilberg done with Aliens by now? E.T? Third Ecounter? Wars Of The Worlds? Transformers (need I continue). And George Lucas...I love Star Wars but you got to have a new credit as a director out of that franchise. Im telling you, the story sucked. By the time Indy was capture by the bad guys (once again)I was no longer paying attenion to the movie. Me and my girl was on each other in the back..not doing things you supposed to do in theaters. David Koeep Is a great writer but I didnt like this movie and how Kate Blanchett died was so stuipd. Her head exploded because she new to much (but no blood came out). I gave this movie a 5 out of 10. I loved the direction, loved the cast (even tho I already knew Shia was going to be Indy son by the time they met) but the movie didnt have the expectations I thought it would be.
