In 1957, Indiana Jones is called back into action when he becomes entangled in a Soviet plot to uncover the secret behind mysterious artifacts known as the Crystal Skulls.
Watched this with Max as he wanted to catch another movie. Last year we had seen Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom exactly a year back.
Hollywood has spent nearly 600 million dollars trying to bring Matt Damon back home 😎 First they saved him in Saving Private Ryan. Then they left him floating in space in Interstellar. Then they abandoned him on Mars in The Martian. And now The Odyssey is sending an entire Greek epic after him for another $250M. At this point Matt Damon isn’t an actor anymore. He’s a very expensive missing person case 😅
Sure it seems a legit expense...
Max wanted to catch a movie before bedtime. We couldn't find Shaolin Soccer available again. The ones on YouTube were basically clickbait. Netflix had a couple of other Stephen Chow movies. I gave Max some options: A Chinese Odyssey 🇨🇳 featuring Stephen Chow, Space Sweepers 🇰🇷, and The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure 🇰🇷.
He initially chose A Chinese Odyssey since he was slightly familiar with the Monkey King myth. But after a minute, he felt Pirates would be a better choice and a much newer movie. I guess that age of the movie (released in 1995) was a factor. 🤷🏾♂️
I had watched The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure back in 2022. This time around, we had fun watching the antics of the pirates. Max liked it and I feel he is now starting to learn watching movies without the need for a theatre experience and without popcorn 🍿.
Next time around, I need to convince him to watch some Jackie Chan movies. I'm looking forward to seeing what he discovers next.
