1:29 Ooh, it’s like a musical.
4:44 Indiana Jones holding a knife to a girl, he’s gone rogue!
10:09 Argh, the diamond got mixed up with the ice. This is the most frustrating sequence ever.
14:53 Yay, map!
16:29 “Calling Doctor Jones, Doctor Jones Doctor Jones get up now, wake up now.”
18:53 This is potentially the worst woman in the world.
29:00 Elephants! I like that he’s on a baby elephant.
38:03 It’s her attitude. They’re “stealing” the rides, except they were providing them in the first place.

Thoughts

I knew, after the first one and from reputation, that this Indiana Jones film would be full of snakes. That’s kind of what it’s all about. I wasn’t anticipating quite how much the snakes would dominate, particularly after a stint in the jungle with one, leading straight to snakes being served up for dinner.

Mr C was bored silly and then feeling sick from that scene, I was hiding my eyes behind a cushion, we really weren’t enjoying ourselves, so we gave it up as a lost cause.
