director 11: spielberg films

the best film of this top notch trilogy, one of the best adventures of all time.

although raiders of the lost ark is still my favorite of spielbergs films, this may very well be his magnum opus, and that is in the light of films like schindlers list and jaws. a masterpiece of the highest quality, every actor, every shot, every line was perfect. the screenplay was beautifully crafted by roth, and geoffrey rush put in a subtly brilliant performance. the musical score was also effective, and despite the long running time the films pacing was flawless. a stellar film.

one of the saddest things ever put onto the screen. this is one of the greatest films ever made, but its also one of the hardest to watch. a masterpiece that should always be seen by any movie fan at least once in life.

wow. what a powerful film. this movie had little to do with entertainment and much to do with human nature. there were unforgetable scenes in this film, like the two slaves discussing Scripture using only pictures and the speach given by John Quincy Adams (anthony hopkins) at the end of the film. this movie was haunting and heartbreaking, yet it was filled with themes of hope, salvation, and courage. one of the truly great films that has ever been made, the acting was incredible and this is easily one of spielbergs best films. lets all stop neglecting this film and give it the due it deserves.

An epic. Adventure at its finest.

really smart movie. underrated sci fi instant classic. this movie isnt considered widely now, but give it ten years and this will be a well respected film. very good.

hard to watch because of the realism, but a must see

a classic film, everyone should see it

fantastic movie, must watch for all

this is a landmark film. the simple score is haunting and effective and the terror instilled is legitemate. this is a truly great film.

made me want to start conning people

fantastic, a true cultural phenomenon when it was released and it lived up to the hype. one of the great sci-fi/monster movies of all time.

the worst of the three and still fantastic

sad but very good

what will the world be like without james hook

the movie was a lot of fun, but entertainment and a bit of nostalgia were the only things this film really accomplished. this film doesnt downgrade the franchise because it was a very solid movie, but it was a mere shadow of indiana jones glory. ultimately, the real problem was sheer silliness. the entire film i thought multiple times, "that was really silly."
karen allens character was so silly she seemed drunk the whole film, and most of the action sequences were so silly that they felt like they belonged in a national lampoons spoof version of indiana jones. i didnt mind the absurdity of the plot that ive heard many complain about because temple of doom was equally absurd and i enjoyed that film, but the other indy films maintained semblences of realism within the adventure, this one did not. this might be nitpicking, but the lighting in this film was also really bad, it sort of felt too bright, like the characters were glowing. indiana jones is supposed to be a dark film. in all a good watch, but disappointing as an indy jones film.

truly one of the landmark films of the sci-fi genre, spielberg delivered one of his many very solid films. it was a fun film with a great story. the fate of dreyfuss' character was a major dissapointment to me cinsidering that he had a family, but for the most part the film was great.

the worst of the three, where is dr. grant?

this movie should have ended like 3 times
