Despite Indiana Jones being a classic film, loved by many the world over, there was the chance it would not connect with an eight year old if the early archaeology stuff got too much. Of course Steven Spielberg knows better than that and the early action sequence draws the viewer in and before they know, they care about the characters. The action sequences are still fantastic, Dr Jones still has some genuinely funny moments and it is excitement from start to finish.
Obviously the face-melting sequence was prefaced with a warning and a recommendation to hide the eyes, but otherwise, a success.
Adult score: 5/5
Child score: 4/5
First thing the child said when the film finished: Are there more?
