Spielberg on devilishly OTT form!

Prior to the long mooted and eventual release of part 4, Temple Of Doom was often thought of as the weakest part of the series, yet it actually appears to me to be maturing nicely with age. With honest appraisal I see the only crime that Temple Of Doom can be charged with is is not being as good as Raiders Of The Lost Ark. But since few films can match that movie’s classic status I find it churlish to do the second film down for it.

Temple Of Doom is a frenetic roller-coaster ride, full of enough crash bang wallop fit to grace any action adventure in the history of cinema. The set pieces are pure outrageous fun; life raft escape from a crashing plane, mine cart thrill ride & a bridge sequence that is pure boys own brilliance. And while the film finds Spielberg cramming the action with a darkly sinister streak (hence the PG13 rating), we find that the fun still far outweighs any horror that junior viewers might get from certain scenes.

The film also finds Ford giving his best performance as Indiana Jones since the plot calls for a more humane Jones. In fine physical shape, his witty interplay with Short Round is coupled with a textured feel of friendship that plays real well up on the screen. Kate Capshaw was always going to struggle to get close to Karen Allen’s wonderful turn as Marion Ravenwood in Raiders, for where Marion was feisty and tough, Capshaw’s Willie Scott is more scare-d-cat and reliant on Indy’s guile to save her from peril, but she does OK and looks gorgeous into the bargain.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was a massive hit at the box-office and firmly bought Spielberg the time to then go out and make two dramas in Empire of the Sun (1987) & The Color Purple (1985). He would then return with the third Indiana film to finish what was then a marvellous trilogy; of which Temple Of Doom is the prime piece of meat in the delightful (original) trilogy sandwich. 8.5/10

Review By: John Chard

Simultaneously both more grim and more silly than the Indiana Jones films either side of it, _The Temple of Doom_ was my favourite of the series as a kid. As an adult though, it seems it is objectively the worst movie in the trilogy, but damn if there isn’t a lot of memorable parts to love about it.

_Final rating:★★½ – Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

Prequel to “Raiders of the Lost Ark”
It’s funny to call “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” a followup to “Raiders of the Lost Ark”. This film is a prequel to the 1981 smash hit, a movie where the events that take place actually took place before the events in “Raiders”. Notice at the beginning of “Raiders” that the year is 1936. In “Temple of Doom”, the year is 1935. See what I mean? “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” is another rollercoaster ride of a movie brought to life by Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. Harrison Ford is back as archaeologist Indiana Jones who this time searches for a sacred stone that was stolen from an Indian village. Along for the ride is American singer/entertainer Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw, aka Mrs. Steven Spielberg) and little Chinese sidekick Short Round (Ke Huy Quan). On their way to finding the stone they stumble across a palace that leads to the gateway of the Temple of Doom run by an evil Thugee cult. The action and special effects are first-rate as you would expect, though the story is a tad weaker than it was in “Raiders”. Plus, Capshaw’s performance leaves something to be desired. She goes so far over-the-top in some scenes that you’d wish Karen Allen would show up as Marion. Nevertheless, Capshaw isn’t all that bad. She does make an impression during the times when she’s not screaming. But Ke Huy Quan (now known as Jonathan Ke Quan) comes off better as Indy’s young sidekick. The following year he starred in the Spielberg produced Richard Donner directed “The Goonies”, but then didn’t appear in much after that. “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” is great fun only if you can get by Kate Capshaw’s simpering wimpering character or the over-the-top violence. I found it to be exciting from beginning to end.

***1/2 (out of four)

POINT OF INTEREST: this was the film that lead to the creation of the PG-13 rating in 1984 (along with Spielberg’s other 1984 movie “Gremlins”). Both “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” and “Gremlins” feature violence that most people felt was too strong for a PG rating, though the MPAA felt that it wasn’t strong enough to merit an R rating (other Spielberg movies that got PG ratings that were quite intense were “Jaws”, “Poltergeist”, and the original “Raiders of the Lost Ark”). So after “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” and “Gremlins” opened in theaters at the beginning of the summer movie season of 1984 and became two of that year’s biggest hits, the MPAA realized a new rating had to be created. The PG-13 rating was born. In August 1984, the first movies were released with the new PG-13 rating (“Red Dawn” and “The Woman in Red”). It’s not a new rating anymore. The PG-13 rating has held up very well these last 18 years and it’ll still go strong in the years to come. But I’ll always remember “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” as the leading factor to the creation of the PG-13 rating.

Best of the trilogy – macabre, action-packed, and exotic
Ever the atypical one, this has long been my favourite of the trilogy thanks to the fact that I saw it at a young, impressionable age and that its stuck in my heart ever since. Maybe it’s the constant stream of action or the numerous macabre and downright horrific aspects of the tale that appealed to me at such a young age, but I still can’t see why people are so down on this movie. Sure, there’s plenty of unwanted comic relief, some of it stupid, but at least Spielberg still kept the sentimentalism out of his films at this stage. As a roller-coaster ride (literally too, at one point) of special effects and bad guys getting whacked, INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM is a fantastic popcorn movie and one that can be watched over and over.

Harrison Ford had by now settled comfortably into the role of Indy like a glove and puts in an assured, wisecracking, heroic but human performance just like in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK – with the addition that he now has to act “evil” too after getting possessed by evil blood (see, I told you it was horror-tinged) in one scene. Aside from Kate Capshaw, saddled with a hugely grating blonde bimbo sidekick/love interest character, the rest of the cast is made up of either Chinese, Japanese, or Indians, guys who do pretty well with their respective caricatures – particularly impressive is the downright demonic Amrish Puri who glows pure evil as the bad guy Mola Ram. Kudos too to Jonathan Ke Quan as a child sidekick who isn’t too annoying (compared to the similar kid in RED SONJA a year later, he’s magnificent).

The movie jumps from one outlandish action sequence to next, bound together by great locales and hummable tunes. A shoot-out (at the Obi Wan restaurant, a not-so-subtle joke imposed by George Lucas as executive producer) is followed by a jump from a plane on to a dinghy (!), rides through the jungle on elephant back, sacrificial rites in an underground Satanic temple, near death perils, a wild mine cart ride, and finally an outstanding finale on a rope bridge overlooking a crocodile-infested river. The special effects are very good (especially the back/forward projection during the excellent mine cart sequence), and the film enjoys plenty of in-jokes like references to the first movie (Indy’s run from a flood instead of a giant stone ball, his attempt to defeat two skilled swordsman in a same manner as he did previously only to be thwarted).

The horror elements include a gruesome banquet (consisting of sheep’s eyeball soup, boiled beetles, snake, and monkey brains – a great highlight as a kid), mouldering corpses, creepy-crawlies, hearts being ripped out, human sacrifice, and voodoo, and also a perfect death for the chief baddie as he gets torn apart by crocs. Plus all the near-death escapes from falling ceilings and spikes in the same style as the first movie. The body count is huge, with dozens of bad guys snuffing it in one way or another, it’s amazing that this was PG when a similar film like COMMANDO was strictly 18. A third film, INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, followed five years later and added Sean Connery to the brew with reduced success – this is as perfect a brain switch-off blockbuster movie as you are likely to get.
