The crown jewl of the timelessly classic "Indiana Jones" trilogy

Rating: 10/10 (30 November 2019)

The ultimate action-adventure movie and Spielberg's most Spielberg blockbuster. While Spielberg may have other more "artistic" films such as Schindler's List or Saving Private Ryan, his blockbusters will always be what I remember him for and Last Crusade may be the Speilbergian of all his blockbusters. Indy takes us on the ultimate treasure hunt that has more tension than even its two predecessors because of its chase element in the story. The addition of Sean Connery is also brilliant and adds a personal element that felt lacking in the previous two Indy film (not that they needed it because they're also kinda perfect). The twist villain is fantastic, the treasure hunt feels the most "treasure-hunty" of all the Indy movies yet it never loses the Indiana Jones magic mainly due to the fact that Harrison Ford owns the character so much that the man has become synonymous with Indy. I will forever love the Indy trilogy, but this one is the best of the bunch.
