Yeah, I said it. "Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom" is not only not that bad, but I'd say it's a great Action-Adventure flick as is actually the 2nd-best film from the original INDY trilogy.
Is Kate Capshaw's Willie character often insufferable? Yes. Is Short Round contrived and at times annoying? Sure. But, really, what's so wrong about the film overall that has earned it as much hate and scorn over the years?
Seriously, though I like "Last Crusade" it's a bit too formula, imho, while TOD is a more honest movie and feels more like a classic serial to me.
Plus, how can you not like the opening sequence, Mola Ram, and the whole Indian folklore and Kali elements?
This film deserves more love, not hate.
