Indiana Jones 3..."Don't call me Junior."

Rating: 8/10 (4 July 2008)

A third heaping helping of adventure with Indiana Jones as the eminent scholar and archaeologist goes up against the Zazis in search of the Holy Grail. The movie opens with an early adventure with River Phoenix playing a teenage Indy and we learn of his aversion of snakes and the history of his fedora. Years later, Indiana will travel to Italy and tromp through rat-filled catacombs of Venice with the lovely Dr. Elsa Schnider(Alison Doody)in search of the Cup of Christ. This peril-filled trek will also become a quest for Indy's father, Professor Henry Jones Sr.(Sean Connery),who will serve in guidance to the biblical treasure. Indy will literally follow in his father's footsteps. The usual comical banter fills this thrilling adventure. Also in the cast: Denholm Elliott, Michael Byrne, Kevork Malikyan and John Rhys-Davies. Another masterpiece score from John Williams. Kudos to Steven Spielberg and George Lucas; Indiana Jones lives for another grand adventure.
