Amazon.com 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 Indy'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

Just the Facts, Ma'am July 9, 2008 A fairly bare-bones collection of the first three movies. The lack of commentaries is dissappointing, but if what you're really after are the flicks themselves, this ain't a bad way to get 'em.
Indiana Jones full set July 6, 2008 Well worth the money if you are a fan of Indiana Jones. Looking forward to the forth installment when it hits Amazon
The Adventures of Indiana Jones July 6, 2008 A great collection. Disappointed that the new DVD re: Crystal Skull was not yet available.
Grandkids love it! July 6, 2008 Bought this for my grandkids after we saw the most recent "Indiana Jones" they love it, me too. They have watched the whole set three times now.
Forget how much I liked these movies July 4, 2008 It had been YEARS since I had watched the Indiana Jones, but when the new one came out I wanted to watch them again. This was the best deal I found for the price and the picture was great.
