The film stars, of course, Harrison Ford as Indy Jones, the archaeologist/adventurer who's on yet another quest, this time to find his father, who'd been searching for the Holy Grail. The Last Crusade may only be thirteen years old, but I think I can safely say they don't make them like they used to. I think it's fair to say it's this movie that cemented my love of cinema, the high regard I hold for great escapism, which is sorely lacking from today's cinema movies that should be fun now drag or bludgeon themselves with relentlessly awful scripts or MTV-style direction that turns relatively simple scenes into chaotic blurs. I even own the same, worn-down, beat-up copy (and look upon it even more fondly than the widescreen edition, for sentimental reasons, of course) (but nothing beats the pristine quality DVD). It is the first film I ever saw in theaters and it's also the first movie I purchased on video. Rating: **** out of **** My opinion of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade could be deemed slightly biased.
