As with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging in the balance about every 10 minutes, the Jones features tapped into Lucas's extremely profitable Star Wars formula of modernizing the look and feel of an old, but popular, story model. Steven Spielberg directed all three films, which are set in the late 1930s and early '40s: the comic book-like Raiders of the Lost Ark, the spooky, Gunga Din-inspired Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the cautious but entertaining Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Fans and critics disagree over the order of preference, some even finding the middle movie nearly repugnant in its violence. (Pro-Temple of Doom people, on the other hand, believe that film to be the most disarmingly creative and emotionally effective of the trio.) One thing's for sure: Harrison Ford's swaggering, two-fisted, self-effacing performance worked like a charm, and the art of cracking bullwhips was probably never quite the iconic activity it soon became after Raiders. Supporting players and costars were very much a part of the series, too--Karen Allen, Sean Connery (as Indie's dad), Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan, Amrish Puri, Denholm Elliot, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies among them. Years have passed since the last film (another is supposedly in the works), but emerging film buffs can have the same fun their predecessors did picking out numerous references to Hollywood classics and B-movies of the past. --Tom Keogh

What a treat to have the three original Indiana Jones movies in one set!!
I purchased the set as a gift and the recipient was absolutely delighted with it. This set is a "must have" for anyone who likes Indiana Jones or Harrison Ford!
Great Movie Package!! August 11, 2008
So very happy with this set. It was a great deal for the money and can't wait to add the newest Indie movie to this collection.
Indianna Jones trilogy August 9, 2008
The product was great as it is necessary to refresh the story line to fully enjoy the new release. My kids who never saw these movies loved them too.

Can't really review the product as I never got it. Should have been here by 25 Jun 08 and it is now 8 Aug 08. I have made allowance since I live at an APO address overseas and sometimes mail takes longer but now it has been a couple months. I paid for it so I hope it will get here sometime in the near future, otherwise the seller can refund me my money. Thanks
