Christian Movie Review: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

June 12, 2008

With all the hype about the new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I am sure most of you reading this post have already seen this movie. My husband and I decided to go see this movie because we love the Indiana Jones movies. The movie started out great, full of action just within the first few minutes - typical of an Indiana Jones movie, it was very entertaining!

However some of the scenes were carried on a little too long and with that they were completely unrealistic. One scene showed the new side kick “Mutt Williams” swinging from vines with monkeys as if he were Tarzan or something, I mean it was so far fetched and so unbelievable it almost did this movie in for me. However most of the other scenes were intriguing, FUNNY - oh were they funny, and did I mention they were entertaining?

All in all I give this movie 3 1/2 our 4 Stars just for the unrealistic and drawn out action sequences, but it really is a pretty good movie. I would definitely recommend seeing it on the big screen. I feel this movie is appropriate for children over the age of 13 years old. There were some violent scenes but nothing I feel a 13 year old can’t handle - I mean the action scenes were pretty unrealistic anyways!

Christian Movie Review: What Happens in Vegas

June 12, 2008

What Happens in Vegas is a movie about a women (Cameron Diaz) who gets dumped by her fiance in front of all their friends, and a man (Ashton Kutcher) who gets fired from the family business by his father all on the same day. To help them get through their pain they both decide to go to Vegas to forget about all their problems. While in Vegas they run into each other (they had never met before) and like most people in their situation get drunk and decide to marry each other all the while waking up to a new day remembering the stupid mistake they made the night before.

If that wasn’t enough they end up fighting over who is breaking up with whom, and then someone gets another persons quarter and uses it in a slot machine which results in a 3 million dollar jackpot being won! Then the rest of the movie plays out that a judge sentences them to 6 months of being married in order to see if they can make it work.
