The Adventures of Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark/The Temple of Doom/The Last Crusade) - Widescreen Customer Reviews (10 - 12 of 140 Reviews)

Those were the times
This set is among the 1000 Best Movies on DVD by Peter Travers, and the first one of the trilogy, Raiders of the Lost Ark, is #60 in the 100 Best American Movies of All Times. This set, the whole thing, is just awesome. I give it 5 stars or 9.5/10. This comes from the Georges Lucas factory and is directed by Steven Spielberg starring Harrison Ford. It is difficult to find all those elements put together in a movie like in this one. But this movie has it all. Even the music is just GREAT, composed by John Williams. You just want to scream the melody all over. The movies are action in its best. There is not a single moment where you get bored. The special effects are awesome (remember those movies were done in the 80's), and the only "bad" thing about it all is that I wish there would be 6 or 9 movies of Indiana Jones. The movie mixes in a very smart fashion fiction and reality. All of them are set around 1936, where the Nazis were about to take over the whole world. The first one is about the Lost Ark. The second is about some stone in a village in India (Black Magic). And the third one is about the searching of the Holy Grail (needless to say, 10000000 times better than the movie Da Vinci Code), with Sir Sean Connery as a special guest and Adolf Hitler signing some autographs (in just 30 seconds, Spielberg says it all about the Nazis in here. Well done!)
Those were the days of E.T., Star Wars, and Back to the Future. Those were the 80's and to me, in my early 30's, as anybody else my age, are so special, that they look they will never go back. Thanks to those great packs (this should be cheaper, though!) with great sound and remaster images, we can go back to the wonderful 80's.
I recommend these movies to absolutely everybody, young or old. Entertainment is guaranteed 100%. Thanks for reading and enjoy!
P.S. If you like my review vote YES. You can read all my other reviews if you wish to. I modestly write them to help people form an opinion about movies, music and books, but if nobody reads them (if you don't vote I do not know if you did) there is no point in writing them :-)

Awesome Father's Day gift
I got this set for my dad as a father's day gift. These are classics and are fun family movies to watch together. He loved it!

Best of the Best!
One of the Best Action/ Adventure Movies ever! Steven Spielberg is an amazing story teller. And this widescreen DVD brings it all to such a wonderful, clear, crisp, movie watching experience. John Williams' score is a character in and of itself. I can't imagine not having the widescreen version and perhaps missing some of the imagery that Spielberg so cleaverly put together to keep us on the edge of our seats. You won't go wrong with this triology. Though I must admit the bookends of Raiders and Last Crusade give credit to the saying "2 out of 3 ain't bad". Not sure what happened with The Temple of Doom, but it is "filler" between two incredible movies in this trilogy.
