The McGuffin is only terrible.

How Lucas (author of the Phantom Menace) and Koepp (author of the Lost World) are treating it is just unbelievable.

In the middle of the movie, you just think it is so awful you guess it is a parody.

I hope the die-hard fans will stand up and ask that this horror won’t be added to the original and brilliant trilogy.

When the premise ( “MacGuffin”) really sucks, I have trouble getting past that as well. Despite the critics, I got a feelin’ my reaction to it would be about the same as yours.

Harrison Ford is getting a little long in tooth to play an action hero.

Brilliant trilogy!?!

The first film was brilliant. The second was unwatchable and the third a self-referential walk-through.

Plot quality over time and it sounds like the fourth film follows the curve pretty well.
