Summary: Gift set gives plenty of bang for the buck.
Review: If you're going to get all three movies, get this giftset. You get 4 videos (including a Young Indy video, Treasure of the Peacock's Eye) for less than the price of the 3 Indy movies bought individually. IMHO Sean Patrick Flannery can't hold a candle to Harrison Ford, and it is because of TotPE that I only gave this 4 stars; but it's still entertaining and worth getting. It's essentially a free bonus anyway, so why not?Of course it goes without saying that this is one of the best film trilogies of the past 20 years, right up there with Lucas' Star Wars. I just watched Raiders this evening - my first time seeing it in years, and the first time EVER in widescreen, since I missed in the theaters. There's truly never a dull moment. Ditto for Temple of Doom, which I watched -- also for the first time in widescreen -- last weekend. And for goodness sakes, get the widescreen edition. Spielberg, Lucas & Co. went to the trouble to release a widescreen edition so you can see the movies as they were meant to be seen (i.e. without nearly half the picture hacked off)...get it so they can be assured their effort was worth it. I was glad to finally see Raiders and Temple of Doom in their original format, and I noticed plenty of things that would be cut out in the "pan and scan" version. One that comes to mind is in Temple of Doom, in the mine car chase, there is a wide shot of the two tracks...in a pan and scan version, one of the tracks would be out of the picture. The ads are right...adventure does have a name, and it's Indiana Jones.

Summary: Awesome!
Review: These movies are SO COOL! I love them! Yeah! Harrison Ford's so cute! =p
Rating:
Summary: Great action, great screenplay, and great characters!
Review: Indiana Jones is the epitome of the American hero- brave, reserved, handsome, intelligent, somewhat clumsy, and a loner. These movies show the excellent acting skill of Harrison Ford, along with his adorable ability to be funny. These movies are a classic and should be a part of everyone's collection. Just remember- Harrison was not only a major part of this trilogy, but also the sci-fi masterpiece, Star Wars. You can't get any better than that.

Summary: The Temple Rocks!
Review: Hey, now, I don't know what 'yall are talking about when you say you've had to settle for the Temple of Doom. It's my favorite! Sure, it's gruesome, but come ON! HAVE YOU SEEN HIS BARE CHEST ANY MORE BARE, my friends? One word: Yummy. Plus the Temple has a more authentic feeling to it. I found River Phoenix and Sean Connery the only good reason to watch the Last Crusade again. And the first one was great, but the Nazi bit wasn't as scary as it had the potential to be and the Indian Voo-Dooish guy in the Temple was the greatest villian by style, in any case. Although all the movies were exceptional acheivements, The Temple should not be underappreciated. Thank you.

Summary: A Classic Series Gets the treatment it deserves on VHS
Review: Now where is the DVD? These movies are all terrific, with Raiders being the best by far. By the way, to all those who were upset about the title being changed to Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, fear no more. That title is only on the box. The title on the screen is still the same as it was in 1981 (The same can't be said for the title of Star Wars -- they added Episode IV: A New Hope on the re-release prints, but I didn't notice any complaints about that.) Raiders of the Lost Ark, one of the all time greatest adventure movies and a major classic. It is a must-see like the 1933 King Kong and Casablanca. Temple of Doom isn't as good. The story is weaker, the heroine this time is a whiner, but the special effects are impressive and the pace is breath-taking. Watch it as a B-Movie on a double-bill with Gunga Din. Last Crusade again isn't quite as good as Raiders, but it is an improvement over Temple of Doom. Sean Connery is great as Indy's dad, but Brody, who was intelligent and quick in Raiders, has somehow been transformed into an absent minded professor. What was missing from this movie was the sinister element. In Raiders you got the impression that Indiana could sacrifice Marion in favor of the Ark, Marion could give up Indy for Belloq or freedom, Sallah could choose to betray Indy. The loyalties and nobility of the characters were left in doubt until the end. Only when Sallah sees Indiana and Marion onto Katanga's boat in Raiders do we know that he is truly loyal. In Last Crusade, there is never any doubt. Indiana isn't as cold-hearted, he seems to know more languages than in Raiders, Sallah's loyalties we are now familiar with, and Marion isn't even in the picture, replaced with another archeologist who we find out rather early on is traitorous, so the audience is left with a fun adventure movie without as much character-driven suspense. So even though only the first one is a true classic, get all three for a great popcorn-munching time.

Summary: Great Films and DVDs are coming
Review: First off Lucas loves DVD. They are working on the DVD version of the Indy films, and may be done soon. These are the greatest action films ever made. Many tried to copy this film (almost as much as Die Hard has been), but none have succeeded. Ford was great as Indiana Jones, and can hardly wait for a new film. I finally get to see these films the way they were meant to be seen...WIDESCREEN! Raiders: The original is still the best. One of the classic films of the 80's and one of the greatest all time films. It is reminiscent of classic serials in the old days. This is the best action/adventure film ever created. Ford gave a great performance as Indy, and John Williams's classic score shall never be forgotten (who can forget the Raiders March). Spielberg made a great film. Temple of Doom: The worst of the series, but compared to two great films, this is still a good film. It was more violent than the original (move that inspired the PG-13 rating). A great film but had a somewhat weak supporting cast. Last Crusade: Great film. Sean Connery and Ford made magic together on the screen as father and son. Brody and Salah finally get into the action in this film. William's does a great job with the score again, and it is nice to see how Indy got the famous hat and his scar.

Summary: Disingenuousness about DVD quality
Review: These three movies are classics in the action/adventure genre. Finally, we can see them the way they were meant to be viewed - in widescreen. However, I disagree with the previous comment about why we won't be seeing the Indy series on DVD. If Spielberg and Lucas really have concerns about the picture and/or sound quality of DVD, then why do they release their movies on VHS, which has inferior picture and sound compared to DVD?? We'll probably never know the real reason behind the Spielberg/Lucas DVD boycott (note that Spielberg has released several of his films to DVD), but given the fact that all of their movies are available on VHS (not to mention that the Indy series has previously only been available in pan & scan), I doubt that the quality of the DVD format has anything to do with it.
Rating:
Summary: WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!!
Review: Excellent!! The only way to see the Indiana Jones movies are in THX and Widescreen format. George Lucas is by far the best filmaker in the industry. Raiders Of the Lost Ark - Excellent, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom - OK, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - Excellent
