Get ready to roast me. I haven't seen this movie since probably sometime in the 90's. I remember it being great. However, rewatching it today it just doesn't seem to hold up very well. I mean, it's not bad, it's just kind of boring. I love the character of Indiana Jones but this movie seems to drag a lot. There's a lot to like here but it just takes so long. They could have trimmed this movie down by at least a half an hour to make it rock more.
The one lesson that you should learn from this movie is don't double cross Indiana Jones. Dr. Octopus did. He dead. The monkey did. He dead.
The final act is pretty great and the special effects are pretty horrifying at times. There's good stuff here. Just not as much good stuff as I want.
I'm going to continue rewatching this series because as I said, it's not bad. It just gets boring. Let's hope the sequels pick up the pace a bit.
Rating: 3 dead monkeys out of 6.
