Harrison Ford pulled it off at his age. The main story’s like one of the better ‘Star Trek’ episodes without the towering illogic; the period feel and details spot-on; the special effects ace. Cate Blanchett’s suitably hot with Louise Brooks hair and a Natasha accent... the other steely blue-eyed Russian villain is like a better-looking version of Putin. Had fun translating bits of the un-subtitled dialogue for my friend (such as how to say ‘SOB’). There are nice, brief scenes about loss of liberty at the hands of the Cold War-era FBI, obviously Lucas’ fitting comment on the Bush-Cheney era. Shia LeBeouf is perfectly good as Indy’s Brando/Dean-wannabe sidekick; I don’t understand why so many critics hate him.
Well done!
