Review of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) by David L — 23 Jul 2015

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is better than its predecessor because the story is more bearable, it is more engaging to watch and it is thankfully much darker, but it still has endless nonsensical action, it is awfully cheesy and the tone is not dealt with properly as it goes from dark to silly abruptly.

But the characters are awful, even more so this time around. The protagonist is even more cocky and unlikable and the movie is indescribably sexist in its portrayal of women and I hate how they got away with it because of the status of the franchise whereas in reality what they did here is unforgivable.
