It was brilliantExcept for the massive, honking, non-Indy errors:
The fridge - Indy is human in a crazy magic-y world, not some retarded super hero who can survive being flung a mile in a metal box.
The vines - Peh
The needless CGI infestation that irritated throughout the film and horribly ruined the ending (or rather, replaced it).
Re: aliens: Seems fine to me, from an indy point of view. Badly handled, but not WRONG for the setting. Many chums disagree.
'Indy' plus points for: Motorcycle chase, Malt shop scene, the bit where he stands on the two jeeps and gets hit in the crotch by half the jungle.
So overall summary: Someone should make a fourth Indiana Jones film, this wasn't one. It just had a character that nicked the name and look.
