Truly great blend of high adventure and simply wonderful humor. Sean Connery as Indy's father is absolutely fantastic and the banter between these two is great. The ending sequence is one of my favorite endings and a really iconic scene. Easily my favorite Indy movie, an absolute blast from start to finish!

After two successful big-budget starring vehicles, we finally get an origin story for Indiana Jones. Of course, that's largely to facilitate the addition of a new supporting character (Sean Connery in a wonderful casting as Indy's long lost father, who we'll get to in just a moment) but that extra layer of nostalgia, wrapped around a property that's deeply nostalgic in the first place, manages to avoid numerous pitfalls and serve as an effective prologue. River Phoenix performs especially well as the young Jones, expertly wearing Harrison Ford's mannerisms throughout the long callback, and somewhere along the way we get a worthwhile genesis for the grown-up version's affinity for leather jackets and fedoras.Once the story jumps ahead to a more familiar era (if not precisely the present), it's full speed ahead on the hunt for the mythical holy grail, a lifelong obsession for the father and recent fixation of the third reich. Soon reunited, both Jones boys dance through precarious situations and near-misses in the history books, a full battalion of Nazi soldiers nipping at their heels, before drawing close to the prize. Ford and Connery are dynamic together, boiling down a complicated father-son relationship to a series of glares, grins and grunts. They alternate between bickering testily and slapping each other on the back in camaraderie, and I honestly can't say which makes for a more entertaining watch. There's depth, too, a stinging blend of long-simmering resentment and earnest care for one another, which often bubbles up just in time to enhance the plot's heaviest moments.Naturally, it simply wouldn't be an Indiana Jones movie without big action sets (in which the series somehow manages to one-up itself yet again) or boatloads of witty retorts and punchy one-liners, and those two essential elements combine to give the film a loose, fun-loving quality without compromising any of the more serious moments. All this without going too far over the top, as we saw more than once in the mildly underwhelming Temple of Doom and borderline-disastrous Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It's well-written and purposeful, successfully intense and humorous, an in-the-wheelhouse serial-styled adventure that spans several continents before confronting superstition and cracking several dusty, life-threatening riddles on the path to a biblical treasure. Indy probably should've left well-enough alone, because this chapter is essentially impossible to top.

(Flash Review)The final of the core three movies, this wasn't as good as I remember or it has aged poorly. This opens with an off-putting flashback of how Jones got his funny quirks with his attachment to his hat, fear of snakes, etc... It felt poorly done and hokey with lame humor. Back to present time now, Jones is on the hunt for the chalice Jesus drank from at the Last Supper. He follows some clues with an attractive woman, gets followed by some bad guys who know what he's is searching for; cue hammy hi-jinks and you know the drill. The antagonist believes he will acquire eternal life if his drinks from the chalice and he must snatch it before Jones can. While fun and adventurous, it felt stale as the humor and gags felt tired and worn yet it had decent effects for 1989. It was fine but was a far cry from the amazing Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I really do not get these Indiana Jones movies at all. These are all average adventure films but evidently somehow in IMDb they got the best ratings.Like other Indiana Jones films this one also has a weak script which is full of plot holes. There was hardly any logic in the story. Although acting was decent but without a strong story the film was not that enjoyable.The action scenes are the most weird of all. They tried to add comedy in these scenes which made them rather childish. They should have these scenes intense and serious instead.Overall it is an average film and good way to spend your spare time.
