My Review:

This is my favorite Indiana Jones movie. The character wavered in Temple of Doom and was butchered in Crystal Skull, but hit its prime in this movie.

Not only do we see River Phoenix as young Indiana, but we see Sean Connery as his father and learn the source of Indy’s name.

Dr. Jone’s grail diary is also part of what inspired me to start keeping journals.
