I enjoyed it a lot, especially the nods to Henry Jones Sr. and (particularly) Marcus Brody (since the actor who played him died a while ago). The links to previous movies were good, and I also liked the reference to the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (talking about riding with Pancho Villa which was in the first Young Indy episode).

My main gripe was the extent of CGI and computer-compositing used. I know that's the way movies are done these days but the physical stunts were one of things I loved about the old Indy adventures.

Harrison Ford's age was definitely something I couldn't help noticing (like he looked more natural in his professor suit than his action-gear) but it was helped by a great quote I read from Ford himself on the subject that went something along the lines of "Yeah, he's 20 years older. Well, so are YOU!"
