Just saw "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" this afternoon. Overall, it's lots of fun. The previous note that suggested that you would need your pacemakers was not too far off. Action is fast, furious, and funny. I'm not quite as satisfied with IJATOD as I was with ROTLA because some of the sequences are just a bit too outrageous and required too much suspension of disbelief. Since this claims to be a non-spoiler, I won't say anything specific about the plot, but I will say that it features lots of good ideas for dinner with your mother-in-law.... (Or maybe for your boss?) I wasn't bored..... And I'll go back to see it again. -- -- Greg Noel, NCR Torrey Pines Greg@sdcsvax.UUCP or Greg@nosc.ARPA

<> I agree with Greg Noel conserning IJatToD. I counted 3 incidents, two at the beginning and 1 near the end, that belonged in a 3 Stooges short. One other point is that there is a great deal of graphic violence in the film. For some reason, the movie is rated PG but I'm not sure I'd want my 10 year old, if I had one, seeing this. Well, other than being briefly rediculous and getting grossed out from time to time, I did enjoy the film. The escape sequence at the end was spectacular and as good or better than anything in RotLA. -- Dave Allen
