| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
The newest Indiana Jones adventure begins in the desert Southwest
in 1957 - the height of the Cold War. Indy and his sidekick
Mac (Ray Winstone) have barely escaped a close scrape with
nefarious Soviet agent on a remote airfield.
Now, Professor Jones has returned home to Marshall College
- only to find things have gone from bad to worse. His close
friend and dean of the college (Jim Broadbent) explains that
Indy's recent activities have made him the object of suspicion,
and that the government has put pressure on the university
to fire him. On his way out of town, Indiana meets rebellious
young Mutt (Shia LaBeouf), who carries both a grudge and a
proposition for the adventurous archaeologist: If he'll help
Mutt on a mission with deeply personal stakes, Indy could
very well make one of the most spectacular archaeological
finds in history - the Crystal Skull of Akator, a legendary
object of fascination, superstition and fear.
But as Indy and Mutt set out for the most remote corners
of Peru - a land of ancient tombs, forgotten explorers and
a rumored city of gold - they quickly realize they are not
alone in their search. The Soviet agents are also hot on the
trail of the Crystal Skull. Chief among them is icy cold,
devastatingly beautiful Irina Spalko (Cate Blanchett), whose
elite military unit is scouring the globe for the eerie Crystal
Skull, which they believe can help the Soviets dominate the
world ... if they can unlock its secrets.
Indy and Mutt must find a way to evade the ruthless Soviets,
follow an impenetrable trail of mystery, grapple with enemies
and friends of questionable motives, and, above all, stop
the powerful Crystal Skull from falling into the deadliest
of hands.
