"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"

2008's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" saw Ford and Spielberg return for another go at the franchise. Set in 1957, this time the villains are Soviet agents who are looking for a crystal skull. Allen finally returns as Marion Ravenwood and Cate Blanchett plays the villain, Soviet agent Irina Spalko. Most notably, Shia LaBeouf joins the cast as Mutt Williams, Indy's son with Marion whom he did not know about. Mutt is a greaser who wears a leather jacket and uses a switchblade for his fighting. The movie was, once again, a box office success but divided critics and fans. Most controversially, at the beginning of the film, Indiana hides in a fridge to escape a nuclear bombing and the movie's skull is directly related to aliens. Many fans would not suspend their disbelief quite that far.
