Review of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) by Virtualnerd — 27 Dec 2022
I was told growing up that this movie wasn't quite as good as the original, and that the gore and violence was over the top. I'm so used to hyperbole that I expected the movie to not be that bad, but now that I've watched it I can confidently say that this movie is SIGNIFICANTLY worse than the original.
Almost every scene is difficult to watch because of the violent imagery, and this is coming from someone who loved The Revenant. The plot is garbage, and revolves around Indiana Jones helping a Hindhu tribe get their magic stone back.
Jones was apparently willing to risk the life of a young boy throughout this entire adventure, and it wasn't even for some greater good cause, it was so some Hindhu tribe could get their magic stone. Such a downgrade from the original.
