    Saw it last night after a tricky month avoiding reviews and general interwebs noise.

    I absolutely loved it.

    The pacing is superb, perhaps partly because it's such a contrast to the Hollywood cliché conveyer-belt. I wasn't sure about a back-from-the-dead ending though.

    Visually it's stunning but *that* CGI was still not quite there for me. It's hard to be convinced when you know it can't be that person. It was in a new cinema so the audio was rattlingly brilliant, and the score is a perfect update.

    Gap T-aside, it's nice to see Indy actually act again. Jared Leto is a bit maple-cured but otherwise all main characters are spot on.

    I'm a huge fan of the original. And so the franchise begins...

    9/10
