Review Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)

[Doctor Omega]

Your thoughts on this movie....

In 1935, Indiana Jones arrives in India, still part of the British Empire, and is asked to find a mystical stone. He then stumbles upon a secret cult committing enslavement and human sacrifices in the catacombs of an ancient palace.

On to the next movie...

And, if you can't be bothered watching the whole original film......

It has some moments, but overall, I really dislike this one. Honestly, Raiders and Last Crusade are the only movies from the franchise I watch with any regularity.

And thank you for sharing the read along videos! Those records were a big part of my childhood!

I remembered the Star Trek ones....and I keep finding more and more. Will add them all to their respective movies....

This was, for me, too much of a 'kiddie's' pic. Very juvenile, I liked it more when I was 10 years old!

This was always the black sheep of the trilogy. Then they made Crystal Skull and suddenly this one looked brilliant by comparison.

So I guess Crystal Skull wasn't all bad.

I thought CRYSTAL SKULL succeeded in capturing the spirit of the first three films, plus the stunt work and action set-pieces were terrific; but the storytelling just didn't pass muster. Too bad.
