Darker Isn't Better
|
1933 finds Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) is in China attempting to get paid for his latest find. When his employer double crosses him, Indy barely escapes with his life, dragging singer Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) and young Short Round (Jonathan Ke Quan) along with him.
Well, Indy almost escapes. Yet another attempt at double crossing him leaves the trio stranded in India. There, they find a remote village that is willing to lead them back to civilization, but only after Indy has returned their sacred stone and their children from a nearby temple.
This mission turns out to have plenty of danger. Can Indy accomplish his mission and keep his companions safe from a very evil villain?
I had heard rumors about this movie, but just now finally got a chance to watch it. Many people complain about some scenes in the middle that are pretty disturbing. In an attempt to make this movie darker then the original, the filmmakers upped the squirm factor. Frankly, I felt those scenes were out of place and over the top, especially in a PG film.
Having said that, those scenes are surrounded by plenty to like. The action is phenomenal. Not necessarily believable, but phenomenal. I loved watching those scenes and will definitely revisit them in the future. And there were some great comedic moments as well. The acting was top notch when it might have gone over the top, which keeps things entertaining for the viewer.
This has a well deserved reputation for being dark and disturbing. As a result, you might want to view with caution. But if you can ignore those scenes, there's still an entertaining film here. |
