If Raiders was great milk chocolate, then TOD is really good dark chocolate. Lots of fun, and the entire third act is some incredible nonstop action. Spielberg later said that he made Last Crusade as an apology for this movie, but there's another entry in this series he should apologize for a lot more than this one.

Indy is an iconic character, one of the all-time greats. This unfairly criticized prequel is even better than I remembered it. I love how Lucas and Spielberg - with their, at the time, seemingly unlimited imagination - don't try to replicate Raiders. A whole lot darker, but equally as fun, dazzling you from the first frame to the last, this is (in the cart chase sequence literally) one long rollercoaster ride. Every set-piece is amazing; the campy humor a riot. Brilliantly crafted entertainment.

This is a mockery of Raiders. The witty, ballsy, drink-you-under-the-table Marian Ravenswood is gone, replaced with the shrieking, stupid, whining Willie Scott. Bumbling but lovable Salaam is replaced with "Short Round," easily the most annoying kid in any movie. Entirely too slapsticky, relies too heavily on gross-out tricks and even the special effects are sub-par. Most disappointing sequel ever.

Sure, it's much darker and creepier than the other Indy films, but c'mon. This movie is still a great action flick. You get to see how even Indy isn't perfect or completely good. Is it as fun as the others? Well, not really. Is it still a great film? You bet! Really good!

While it's true that the "comedic" aspects of Willie may induce eyerolling & some of the action is far more cartoonish than Raiders or TLC, I like this more than TLC because it's entirely new & different unlike Crusade which attempts to repeat stuff from the first film to lesser effect (like the desert chase) & the last 20 minutes is filled w/ thrilling action set pieces (that rope bridge!), not riddle-solving like Crusade. This also has Short Round, a great tip of the hat to kid sidekicks.

I avoided this one for years, because of its hugely racist reputation. And, wow, it really is an ugly film with deep racial prejudices. But it's so much more than just staggeringly offensive, it's also completely lacking in fun. There's no joy, intrigue, or any of the franchise's redeeming qualities. Indy is an asshole from start to finish, his love interest seems to have been written to be as miserable & unsympathetic as possible, and the only character worth liking at all is named Short Round.

You know, it's funny - Short Round is actually probably the *least* annoying thing about this. Okay, okay - it has excellent cinematography, and the actors all do their best. But it turns out that making a movie all about how weird and threatening and gross and unpleasant another culture is is NOT ACTUALLY FUN!? Also, Indiana Jones is a jerk and I can totally sympathize with the woman he shanghaied into this?!? (And it didn't have the lively pacing of Raiders, or the meaningful stakes, or...)

I must be the only one here who thinks this is just one stupid scene or annoyance after another, start to finish. The female lead is a dumb blonde who only spouts cliched dumb blonde lines; the unnecessary sidekick is an annoying Asian kid who says things like 'fary funny' (that's what it sounds like anyway...). Doesn't hold a candle to the first in the trilogy, and that in itself makes it almost unwatchable for me.

Honestly it doesn't come close to the original. It's full of relatively cheap slap-stick laughs, grossouts for the sake of grossouts and TWO sidekicks for the sake of comedy. It's just too much all around and really takes away from what made Raiders of the Lost Ark so much fun in the first place. Of course this is far better than an average adventure flick, the action here is entertaining and Ford is great, but the original set the standards for the trilogy very, very high.

Only a couple of complaints: kid sidekicks are stupid, helpless female tag-alongs are annoying, and kicking the hell out of a cheesy voodoo Indian cult is a lot less romantic and American as kicking some Nazi ass. Otherwise, it's still a blast, just a cheesy, somewhat incompetent one.

Just rewatched both this and Raiders. Honestly this movie is a bit smoother in terms of flow and plot. It's just not got the same iconic moments or level of fun. And both the lady sidekick and tiny Asian sidekick spend too much time screaming which is annoying. But a better addition to the Jones franchise than I remember. Also, how is this only rated PG? Burning alive, human sacrifice, guy gets crushed to death, child slavery, eaten by crocodiles. Pretty heavy shit.

With the stereotypical exotic Indian locale being milked for all it's worth, this sequel simultaneously takes turns towards darker (see the horrifying human-sacrificing cult and their child slaves) and funnier (see the outrageous palace meal) material. Capshaw's distressed diva and Quan's charming ESL kid sidekick add further humour to a stacked line-up of action sequences in the same vein as its predecessor, making them even more memorable (the secret chamber with spikes scene is a standout).

I hate to admit this, but I'm pretty sure I've been EXTREMELY hesitant to try new foods (especially from Asian countries) after watching this movie as a kid. There'll always be a dark part of my brain that tells me, "If it ain't a cheeseburger, then it's monkey brains and eyeball soup." This movie turned me into a food racist.

Many users, whose opinion i value, dislike this for some weird reason. Yeah, shorty and willy are often annoying, but i can't imagine how the movie'd work without them. So fuck that, this prequel still exudes stakes and adventure more than any comparable bullshit i can think of, and the setting is my series' favorite. Exotic, weird, gruelling and fun. Especially puri is great, selling the bad ass antagonist despite seriously limited screentime.

Not quite as good as Raiders of the Lost Ark or Last Crusade, but still an extremely enjoyable moviewatching experience. I was surprised, watching the movie now, to see how dark it is. Then again, this darkness is counterweighted by the presence of Short Round and some childish humor (Willie and Short Round swinging punches in the air while Indy fights Thuggee guards). Whatever its fault, Temple of Doom is still one of the best moviegoing experiences I can think of.

Of the original three this one is the worst. The plot isn't half bad it just had two incredibly annoying characters in the movie the whole time. The "heroine" just cried and whined the whole time and little Short Round was a terrible sidekick. Harrison Fords greatness and a few memorable scenes keep this from really sucking but it's still nowhere near Raiders and the Last Crusade.

Screw all y'all, this is the Jones flick that should be required viewing. I don't know, maybe it's because I saw it as a kid, or maybe just because it has Shortround and... Mola Ram!

Being married to Kate Capshaw must be a real bitch. I wish she was as charming as Marion in Raiders. And what about Short Round, probably the worst sidekick I can think of aside from Jar Jar Binks. Just an awful, awful sequel, which is a shame because I loved the 1st one. Harrison Ford saved this film from the bottomless pit it was falling into...

My least favourite of the trilogy as a child, Temple of Doom is my second favourite as an adult (behind Raiders). The opening 10 minutes is genius - funny, bizarre, and thrilling. I would pay to watch a movie where Indy and Lao Che sit at a table, each one upping the other for 2 hours. Yes, Willie is a bit annoying and Short Round is a little silly as he yells "doctah jones" once every 5 minutes. But the locales, the darkness, the stunts, etc make it up... an exceptional adventure film.

It's definitely the weak link of the series, with a forgettable story, less humor, more claustrophobic feel, and Short Round and Kate Capshaw hamming it up, but it's still a fun, lively adventure movie. Just happens to be sandwiched between two much more lively, more fun adventure movies.

Even as a kid, I felt uncomfortable at how racist this was. 20 years later and it's literally unwatchable - I actually can't sit through the entire thing without switching it off in disgust. Add to that an irredeemably obnoxious Kate Capshaw, scene-after-scene of terrible slapstick and a glacial pacing, means that this is, without a doubt, the worst film Spielberg has ever made.

Darker, grittier, and all the better for it, "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" is pulpy, sure, but that's the point of it all, just as thrilling a recreation of adventure serials as "Raiders" but perhaps more dedicated, with over the top violence, song and dance numbers, and yes, vaguely disconcerting cultural portrayals aplenty, however satirical. It's less accessible than its predecessor, but it's never anything less than a whip-cracking good time at the movies. Anything goes!

Of the common criticisms 'darker tone', Ke Quan and Capshaw, the latter is the only one I truly agree with. 'Willie Scott' is just an incredibly annoying character so I can't even blame Capshaw, but she comes close to ruining a number of scenes. 'Willie' aside, this is another classic action adventure. Chronologically ToD is a prequel to Raiders but stands as an isolated story. It's a darker tale involving child slavery and human sacrifice, but ToD remains an entertaining rollercoaster ride

Fails to duplicate Raiders’ perfect pacing, wry screenplay, or efficient storytelling, and yet, Spielberg is as brilliant a craftsman as there’s ever been. He makes this material work. The bookending stuff in particular pretty much redeems the whole movie. The opening club fight and chase is pure joy, and the finale (mine cart chase / bridge stand-off) is thrilling. And even when mired in semi-aimless cult wandering and typical 80s-era racism, Spielberg’s direction is as beautiful as ever.

One of the most unremittingly nonstop action films ever made, with an expert succession of climactic sequences. It's a roller-coaster ride---at one point very literally---a visual extravaganza, a technical coup and masses of exuberant pleasure. Spielberg and Lucas didn't equate building on Raiders by simply making everything bigger and louder. The energy of storytelling imagination is put forth double-time.

The Temple of Doom is regarded my many as the least favourite of the original trilogy. I can't put my finger on it, but it slightly lacks the awesomeness of Raiders. But it's still a great film and I absolutely loved it growing up. Ford has completely grown into the character and nobody else could or should ever portray Indy. Sidekicks Capshaw & Ke Quan just annoy. The story telling, set pieces and score are all superb once again though. All in all this is a nostalgic and solid Indy sequel.

Credit has to be given where it's due for Temple of Doom. It doesn't shy away from darker elements, and it doesn't pull its punches. Those are what punctuate this movie, maybe even more so than necessary. The dark elements make the movie a bit unpleasant to experience. The comic relief is a bit hit or miss; Harrison Ford is still witty, but the two supporting characters can be pretty annoying. As a whole, the movie is still fun, but definitely the weakest of the first three Indiana Jones movies.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is a darker Indiana Jones film than the one that preceded it, but it's still a lot of fun and contains some very exciting moments. What didn't work as well was the love interest -- in part because the character is written to be weaker than Marion, and also because Capshaw's chemistry with Ford wasn't as strong -- and the kid sidekick -- which didn't work because it wasn't given a whole lot of time to develop.

I liked that the storyline in this one revolved around helping people in need rather than just killing a shit-load of Nazis and nicking an ancient artifact. Indy feels a bit more human as a result.

It's not so bad if you just realize the plot is lifted straight from a bad 30's pulp magazine. The ethnic stereotyping and the campy villains is a staple of that. Overall it's completely preposterous though with some special effects scenes that looked dated even for the 80's. Nothing particularly memorable here.

Raiders is often given all the plaudits, but for me Temple of Doom is THE Indiana Jones experience. The Shanghai shootout, the palace banquet, the shrinking room, the cart chase, the rope bridge... there are so many memorable scenes here. A bit more concentration on shot continuity wouldn't have gone amiss, and some of the effects look a bit cheap a quarter of a century on, but it's still great fun.

I hate this Indiana Jones. Not as bad as Crystal Skull but, in my opinion, not even worth watching.

Probably the very worst, by far, of the Indiana Jones series. Nonetheless, tolerable required viewing and reviewing for the true Indiana Jones fan. Great opening scene; it digresses from there.

Indy is cool, but is his coolness enough to counter the stupidity of some of cinema's worst supporting characters?

Worst of the early trilogy? This is still the worst of the series as far as I'm concerned. For sidekicks we've got a shrill asian boy and a shrieking harpie screaming god knows what as our hero yells at them to shut the fuck up. Does that sound like fun? Of course it still has elaborate set pieces and action sequences, and it's Indy so I can't entirely hate it...but still. This is beyond underwhelming. Bonus points for hilarity when Shortround cries and tells brainwashed Indy that he loves him.

It's true. This film is worse than "Raiders of the Lost Ark". More family friendly, with couple of terrible characters thrown in (yes, I'm speaking about Indies romantic interest and his sidekick). And i bet Lucas is responsible for that terrible dialogs. Same level as Star wars prequels. BUT the action was very good, and almost non-stop. Forgivable misstep.

Not even Indy's coolness can carry this one. Its not a movie I wanna watch anytime soon like the other two originals. Has its moments but not nearly as fun or entertaining as "Raiders" or "Crusade".

Without hyperbole, this is my favorite film of all time. I have it memorized. The pacing and music and images and story telling and acting are all superb and it has probably had more of an impact on who I am as a person than any other film EVER!

This is a downright terrible movie, guys. 50 points for Indy. Short Round and Capshaw are racist/sexist and annoying beyond all reason. When Kate sings, "Anything Goes" in Mandarin with a complete musical number, I guess Spielberg is trying to tell us not to take anything seriously. But it's Indy, so I feel obliged.

Easily the worst of the legendary trilogy. It's more darker and serious than the original, but still retains the silliness and adventure of the good ol' Indy we know. The weakest part of the film is Kate Capshaw, who's extremely obnoxious and I swear to god screams every 5 seconds in the movie! Other than that, great lively action flick.

This definitely does not stand all the way up to the first Indy, but Temple of Doom has a special place in my heart. Don't tell me that you didn't smile when Short Round was reunited with Indy!

I found this to be better than the first. The first didn't really feel like what I expected an Indiana Jones film to be (while still being very good). This, however, is Indy through and through. The plot is better, it's more exciting, and overall slightly better in every way. Also, Short Round is the most awesome kid character I've seen in a long time. He not nuts! He crazy!

If you first saw the Indiana Jones movies as a kid, this was undoubtedly your favorite of the bunch (followed by Last Crusade). It's essentially a Hollywood-caliber B-movie, though it's much better than that description would imply.
