Movie Haiku:Jan arrived expecting the worst only to find herself charmed by this zany homage to Harrison Ford which begins by riffing RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK then quickly morfs into an update of the original STAR WARS (now called Episode IV). With no clue how any of this mapped to the actual Marvel mythology, Jan just settled in & laughed her way thru the ensuing mayhem. NOT YET SEEN BY RICH
