Time: 1957. Almost twenty years since the last movie's setting, and almost twenty years since the last movie's release.
This one takes quite a departure from the previous movies, as it's now Indiana Jones vs. the Soviets for alien relics instead of Indiana Jones vs. the Nazis for religious relics. Additionally, they set the plot ahead so that Indy himself was older. It was rather nice in that regard that they didn't TRY to make Harrison Ford younger than he is.
Still, considering the timeframe of the movie is during the beginnings of the Great Space Race during the Cold War, and not hunting for artifacts the way Nazis did to prove they were the superior race. So while the alien crap is rather out there, it's still a fun movie and wins points for bringing Karen Allen back as Marion, and making Shia Labeefcakes tolerable in a movie.
