Temple of dissapointment
Despite the attempts to make this film a great sequel, they ended up with a
tragic try to make another Indiana Jones movie. Let me tell some of the
problems I had with this film.*SOME SPOILERS AHEAD*SPOILERS*
1.-The opening scene-it was okay until Indy jumped out the window, into the
car which is being drived by TEN YEAR OLD!!
2.-It just didn't fit Indiana Jones, going into a jungle was okay, but some
of the things he did...just wasn't Indy
3.-The Plane-After the pilots jump out of the plane, Indy, the kid, and the
girl(I haven't seen the movie in about year so I forget their names except
for Indy),jump out with and inflatable raft and use it as a parachute. And
they land safely on a SHALLOW stream below... I know some things are stupid
and I can put up with them but THAT?!?!.
4.-The interactions-I found the girl and the boy extremely obnoxious, and
although Ford was excellent as Indy, despite his failed attempts, the other
actors just could not act.
5.-the sacrifice-Once Indy finds the cult in a secret passageway in the
mansion he's in(sounds a bit kiddish, but that's okay, I can put up with
that). He then witnesses a sacrifice made by the cult in which the leader
pulls out the heart of another man with his bare hands, and then the man
lives long enough to be put into a cage and lowered into a pit of burning
lava, all the meanwhile still livin(WHOA, hold on here, now that's just
plain stupid AND kiddish). And yet they're making this more of a kiddy
movie, especially seeing a ten year old is Indy's sidekick, and now the
whole heart thing. Yet they're violent enough to show the blood squeezing
out of the cult leaders hand as he holds it high in the air, meanwhile the
heart's still pumping!! Either kid movie or not, make your
choice.
6. The mine ride-perhaps one of the dumbest parts, I'd say the third dumbest
part compared to the heart and the plane parts. First the stuff they do in
these mine carts is just so unrealistic. I won't even go into it it's so
dumb.
7.-I could go on and on-I have a feeling by now you want me to stop before I
make my comment on the bridge climax scene, but I'll tell you some things of
what greatly dissapointed me.
My grandmother is almost 80 years old, she is a huge fan of the Indiana
Jones series, She probably is hoping she'll be alive still when number 4
comes out, but however, she really dislikes this one, I think for the same
reasons as me. I grew up on these movies whenever I'd go to her old house, I
always watched number 1 and 3, 3 is still my favorite one.But I was never
allowed to see temple of doom, because it was too violent. When I got older
though, I finally got to see it. I wasn't exactly let down at first, but I
was alot younger and well, it's like watching superman, he's the big hero.
But as I got older, boy the older the more stupid it became. So I just want
to say to all Indy fans, if you're die hard fans, well you've probably
already seen this seeing it's been around for about 15 years I think, but if
you've just become a fan, and can't wait to see the sequel....You're going
to be a little let down just to warn you. So all in all, I'd have to give
this 2 1/2 out of 5 stars. I hope number 4(which they are planning on making
right now)lives up to the 1st and third movies, because those are the
greats, and they should be shown a little more respect
