Indiana Jones in new avatar !!

Once was the president of USA. Then was a great father..Then was a heart throb. Now its the turn of professor...err..Adventurer...Wondering what or whom was I talking about? Its none other than Harrison Ford. And the movie which I saw today was Indiana Jones and the kingdom of great skull!!

The movie was set in a tome which is trademark of Spielberg. Who would do screenplay and directions of 50's set in 2008 better than him? This guy has a real talent and is true to be in the bigger league of directors..

I don't remember at what age I saw the last version of the film. Either the story I could recollect. But this ver was real example of tech and history meeting ends.

The story goes this way..Ford was a professor Mr. Jones but the real name was Professor. Henry. He was captured KGB(No wonder russians were at cold war with US in 50s) psychiatric doctor villain played by Kate blanchett. I don't put my money on the role of blanchett playing negative role. But she did justice to it. positive roles is the best for her. They captured jones and wanted to know the secret of the corpse inside box which was stored for years in a military godown. I had my laugh when it was shown that the 'crystal skull' had huge 'magnetic powers'. What int he hell would make a crystal skull to have such powers? ..Hollywood is the place where creativity in nonsense rules More than the reality in acceptance. But we still watch them for the urge to know how well they go 'out of the ordinary'.

Ok..coming back to movie,they wanted ford to lead them to the place of 'city of gold'. Is it a reality that "ELDORADO' exists? It doesn't matter to me whether its there or not but I liked the disney ver of "Road to eldorado". To my view ANIMATION STILL RULES!! As usual ford escapes and runs. Then how would the movie lasts 1hr and 45 mts? He meets his son (which he doesn't know) in the run. they team up and stumble on the idea of legend of city of gold. they unravel the riddle with ease (ford is a hero man!!)..He utters some dialogues saying "God can only read from top as they are above all of us!!! (I can recollect the translated ver of it from Indian Tamil superstar Rajnikanth) they travel to peru and again meet the villain. He meets his pal who had become nut and meets his wife!! (what a scenario). They all go to the city of gold to return the skull..The logic being whoever returns the skull will attain all the powers. Hence all wanted to have it. Great racing scenes, fighting in age old jeeps with modern weapons(whats happening) Tribes arrive and they escape..One thing i found baffled is flesh eating ants move away from so called 'magnetic skull' but eat the villains!!

The most interesting is the climax which really amazed me!! I think Spielberg got spoiled by Night J who gives surprises in the end..

Iam not going to give away the climax..Its left to stakeholders to watch the "legend in technology" movie and 'understand it'!!
