Chicago Sun-Times -
I can say that if you liked the other Indiana Jones movies, you will like this one, and that if you did not, there is no talking to you.

Variety -
Nineteen years after their last adventure, director Steven Spielberg and star Harrison Ford have no trouble getting back in the groove with a story and style very much in keeping with what has made the series so perennially popular.

Empire -
A slick, fun film that has by no means sacrificed the fast action beats of the first three.

New York Daily News -
Entertaining, inventive and old-fashioned in the best way.

Los Angeles Times -
Though the film stars a relaxed and capable Harrison Ford as everyone's favorite intrepid archaeologist and boasts supporting players ranging from Cate Blanchett as a superb villainess to Shia LaBeouf as the inevitable youngster, the real heroes of this film are director Steven Spielberg and the veritable army of superb technicians who turn the film's numerous stunts and special effects into trains that insist on running on time.
