Movie Reviews of The Adventures of Indiana Jones - The Complete DVD Movie Collection (Full Screen Edition)
Movie Review: Indiana Jones is awesome!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved these films! Indiana Jones comes back to one DVD collection filled with all three movies in beautiful quality! The collection includes all three movies on one disc as well as a bonus disc including the making, trailers, and more. Listen because these movies are awesome. In this review, I'll give a mini-review on all of the Indiana Jones films and their quality, then I'll review the bonus disc.
Let's start with Indiana Jones And The Raiders Of The Lost Ark. This was easily the best Indiana Jones movie out of all three. The story is where DR. Jones has to find this Lost Ark that has to do with powers to talk to god and something about the ten commandments. Indiana Jones has to get this Ark for about 100,000 $ and he has to get it before the Nasies (sorry if I spelled that wrong). He also has to get this gem so it can locate the ark. There are a bunch of classic moments in this movie like the boulder chasing Indiana Jones, or the car chase scene where Indiana Jones has to get the ark away from the Nasies. The quality is also fantastic. It isn't as good as Blue-Ray, but it is pretty close. The movie had fantastic acting, especialy Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones. The movie is very adventure like and I think some of the Star Wars movies helped warm him up. But either way he was terrific. This movie in my opinion gets a 5 out of five.
Now let's move on to the sequel, Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom. This movie was my least favorite, but it still was an instant classic. In this one Indiana Jones barley escapes a bar fight from the help of his sidekick, Shorty (who supposedly was found on the street trying to pick-pocket Indiana Jones). So DR. Jones escapes in an air plane, but this plane was controled by the enemy, so they escape the plane and Indiana Jones crashes lands in India. Here the town is sad and poor. So it is Indiana jones job to go to th Temple of Doom and get this rock which was stolen by the Emporer (that's what I like to call him) and make a dangerous quest to save himself, their stone, and to save their children who have been taken to the Temple Of Doom as slaves. The movie still has excellent acting and the quality is just as good. It didn't drap either but the story could have been beter. That's why the sequel gets lowere to a 4 1/2 out of five. Still great, but not as good.
No is the prequel to the first one, Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade. This is my second favorite Indiana Jones movie. In this one, Indiana Jones recovers a necklass that is rarae and shoul;d be in a museum. He has actually trying to get the thing since he was ak kid and at the beggining of the movie, it shows a flashback of him trying to get it. In the flashback you'll also see how he got his hat, how he had bad experiences with snakes, and how he learned to use a whip. After that happens it shows how Indiana Jones gets the necklass back. After he recovers it, he meets this person who tells him about this holy cup that caught the blood of Jesus when he got nailed to the cross. They say if you drink the cup, you will have eternal life. Indiana Jones father was studying that stuff for years and Indy discovers that his father hsa fled somewhere near Venice, Italy. His father fled so he can get away from danger of Nasies trying to get the book that he wrote the stuff about Christ in. His father doesn't want them to get the book because if they do, they will get the holy cup. So Indiana Jones has to save his father and keep the book safe at the same time. The acting was grea, the quality was great, the story was great, but I wish they had more detail about the holy cup, just slightly more. But it still doesn't bring the film down to much with a 4 and 3/4 out of five.
Now the bonus disc, the disc includes the making of all three films and some trailers and stuff like that. The disc has amazing quality, but I wish that for the trailers, they would add in TV Spots like they did with the Star Wars films. But still I give the disc a 4 3/4 out of five.
Final rating: five out of five collection.
Get these movies! I loved them! I can't wait until May 22nd for the new movie!
Summary of The Adventures of Indiana Jones - The Complete DVD Movie Collection (Full Screen Edition)
This multi-pack collects Steven Spielberg and George Lucas's Indiana Jones trilogy in which Harrison ford portrays the titular globe-trotting archaeologist. Titles include Indiana Jones and the raiders of the lost ark Indiana Jones and the temple of doom and Indiana Jones and the last crusade. The 4-disc DVD set includes a bonus disc featuring over 3 hours of bonus features including a feature-length documentary on the making of the films. DVDS are not available separately. For more detailed descriptions see individual titles.Format: DVD MOVIEAs with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging in the balance about every 10 minutes, the Jones features tapped into Lucas's extremely profitable Star Wars formula of modernizing the look and feel of an old, but popular, story model. Steven Spielberg directed all three films, which are set in the late 1930s and early '40s: the comic book-like Raiders of the Lost Ark, the spooky, Gunga Din-inspired Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the cautious but entertaining Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Fans and critics disagree over the order of preference, some even finding the middle movie nearly repugnant in its violence. (Pro-Temple of Doom people, on the other hand, believe that film to be the most disarmingly creative and emotionally effective of the trio.) One thing's for sure: Harrison Ford's swaggering, two-fisted, self-effacing performance worked like a charm, and the art of cracking bullwhips was probably never quite the iconic activity it soon became after Raiders. Supporting players and costars were very much a part of the series, too--Karen Allen, Sean Connery (as Indy's dad), Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan, Amrish Puri, Denholm Elliot, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies among them. Years have passed since the last film (another is supposedly in the works), but emerging film buffs can have the same fun their predecessors did picking out numerous references to Hollywood classics and B-movies of the past. --Tom Keogh
