Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is an action-adventure film and the third movie in the Indiana Jones series. It was produced by Lucasfilm Ltd. and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was written by George Lucas, Menno Meyjes, and Jeffrey Boam and directed by Steven Spielberg.
The story is Indiana Jones has learned that his father Henry, has gone missing after searching for the Holy Grail. Now Indiana plans to go rescue his father and get the Grail. However during this mission, Indy soon finds out old enemies have come back, those being the Nazis.
- Negatives
I've got nothing negative here, just move on.
- Mix
The real mix was the villains. While it was entertaining seeing them be blinded by their egos and suffer from their greed, they're very standard. Nothing to special, but they do serve their purpose.
- Positives
One thing that the film's got going for it, is the humor. There were many laughs to be had. My favorite being this one.
It's so simple, yet so hilarious.
Then we have the performances, especially from Harrison Ford and Sean Connery. Those two were just amazing together. They had amazing chemistry, and they brought both heart and humor to their characters.
Much like the previous Indiana Jones movies we've got action. And much like the previous movies it's amazing. Insane stunt work all around, sometimes even coming from Harrison Ford himself. From fist fights to chase scenes, the action excites you. The best ones to me is the opening scene where Indy is being chased because he has a crucifix that once belonged to Coronado, and the tank chase.
The last thing I'll praise is how the film humanizes our two main characters, Indiana Jones and his dad Henry. We learn why they're not very close as a father and son should be, and we also see how this journey changes them, which in return brings them closer together. Not many people think "heart warming" when they think of an Indiana Jones film, but it was heart warming to see these two mend their broken relationship.
After rewatching this one for this review, I've come to enjoy this than I did many years ago. If Indiana Jones had ended up being a trilogy, as suppose to us getting two extra movies later on, this by no means wouldn't have been a bad place to end.
My final rating is, Great.
That's all for now. Come back on Thursday, Apr 13th, where I'll tell you something about one of my favorite Superman/Batman stories, that story being, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies. Until then, enjoy the rest of your day.
