Did Shia LaBeouf extend his acting beyond saying "no" x10million?

My brother just came back from this movie last night. He said it was the worst movie he's seen in a while. it even topped 'hitman' and 'episode 3'.
reasons being, terrible special effects, b-movie props (crystal skull looked like a prop taken straight out of wal-mart), too much poorly written dialouge in the middle, bad acting, poor pacing (difficult to stay awake in the middle), among other things. Even though Lucas was involved, keep in mind they had Spielberg directing, some great actors, and a relatively generous budget. I think I'm just going to see it, when someone else rents it. |

I actually like LaBeouf. He's pretty funny and I think he's a good actor.
But the movie was decent, pretty entertaining, then the end... wtf I'm watching Indiana Jones not X-Files. Side note: Anyone see the Preview for Eagle Eye? Looked pretty cool! [ame]http://youtube.com/watch?v=J-CbKl82R8U[/ame] |

I really don't know what movie some of you watched, but it was a really great movie.
I wish people would stop watching movies like all of them are running for a fucking Oscar, and enjoy them for what they really are- just sources of entertainment. This movie was FAR more enjoyable than some of the retarded crap I've seen before. Yea, it doesn't compare to Raiders of the Lost Ark- what does?- but that's not to say it wasn't good. Shia wasn't that bad- stop looking at him as some douchebag that you don't like as a person, and look at him as a legitimate actor. If you were a fan of these movies ( A REAL FAN), then you should find this movie entertaining. Stop acting like a bunch of fucking fanboys, pull your head out of your ass, and give yourself a chance to enjoy the movie-going experience again. You're not fucking Roger Ebert. |

im sorry but this movie wa sa disaster
it was like a kids movie with people getting hit in the balls and stuff. i really dont know what they were thinking..it just wasnt indiana jones. do not go see this movie, just download it or something. he used his whip i think 2 times. A LOT of obvious CGI harrison ford is an excellent actor and did a good job, but the story and all the CGI just sucked. there is only 3 indiana jones still in my eyes

of course Harrison ford can climb into a refrigerator... be hit by a nuclear blast... catapulted about 5 miles away and roll right out and get up and poof... ready to go... It's not that I'm not a fan... shit just wasn't indy material.. he chases after artifacts from past civilizations not trying to uncover secret alien space ships...I swear the alien at the end was from a poser template pack...
and if the kid and the old lady from temple of doom weren't in the movie... like if you rubbed them out and indy just got a random letter from some mental friend of his... it would be the same... just 30 minutes shorter and more coherent.. both characters brought nothing to the story line... snake rope was funny though...

man, seems like this film could have the potential to be the worst of all time. you guys are getting me exited. Think I have to go see it just to see what all the fuss is about.
One question for those who have seen this and "Armeggedon" (with Bruce Willis!). Which is worse? |

Just got back from it.
It was alright. Not nearly as bad as some made it out to be, but not the best of the Indy movies by any means. I've always like Raiders and Last Crusade equally as my favorites... This new one will probably be like Temple of Doom in my collection. I'll have it so it's complete, but it'll only get dusted off and watched when I want something different. The CGI was overdone and used in scenes where it was wholly unecessary, and that really took away from the movie I think. The movie was good. However, Indiana Jones started off with an EXCELLENT movie in Raiders, so it's kinda cursed from the begining. I agree with DravenS13: Just enjoy it for what it is... an entertaining movie.

personaly i think this movie was a mess. alot of the cgi scenes you could obviously notice studio lighting, didnt look anywhere near natural. and the use of minature sets during overshots and explosions was pretty obvious to, im suprised they didnt use the lego indiana jones in those parts lol
honestly i hope that these movies are never released in a box set of all 4 movies. the first 3 were so good, this was just a let down. the actors did well with what they had to work with but i cant remember anything in the indiana jones movies that was as horribly far fetched as alot of the stuff in this movie (giant ufo, Abomb survival, and the car-to-tree-to-river part) i could see kids enjoying it but not hardcore indy fans. id definalty recommend a download over buying a movie ticket, not worth the 7bucks if u ask me

Nuke Bomb Scene
Monkey Scene Ending Scene Why, not the Indiana Jones i know, just to much stupid over the top unrealistic cgi. Seriously just make a decent movies without fake ass looking shit. Still i thought it was ok to watch just of course didn't feel as special as the others but its not the 80's either *cry. |

I just got back from watching it as well. I try not to listen to critiques before I go watch a movie, so I didn't. I have to say, it didn't feel like an Indi movie, but I enjoyed it. I do agree that there was a lot of CG but it was acceptable. Yes...there were scenes that could have been left out, like the monkeys and waterfalls.
Is it just me...or was the Russian girl kinda sexy in a kinda weird way? lmao. |

okay....
didn't anyone wonder why everything didn't stick to the super magnetic skull that even attracts gold when they were carrying it around? especially in the camp? ark of covenant in the hanger?.... I don't think covering the alien skull with a potato sack will actually negate its magnetic properties, and finally.... didn't jones sr. drink from the immortal grail? isn't his dad suppose to be alive right now?.... but, it's an Indy movie after all, so everything doesn't need to make sense....

I watched it Saturday.
It was...alright. Certain parts I enjoyed. Others, not so much. I don't know, it just didn't have that Indiana Jones feel to it. IMO, this movie is at least 10 years too late. I would have much preferred if they would have taken the story line from "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis". Not only was that a kick ass computer game but it would've made for the perfect capstone in the Indy franchise. |

it wasn't so bad, i just got back from it a little while ago. it's action packed, and had me cracking up most of the time. i gotta agree with most folks on here though, it will leave you walking out the theater with the "WTF?" look.

I haven't seen this one yet so I can't pass judgment, but I'll be keeping my expectations really low so I don't get disappointed. |
