Golan: Wow! Temple of Doom made a lot of money! We can do something like that can't we?
Globus: Sure! Let's take the bits everyone loves from that film but give the audience even more of them.
Golan: Great, sounds like a plan. Though we've only got a fraction of Spielberg's budget, so we can't just fill the film with extravagant set pieces.
Globus: Hmmm, you're right. What else could we ramp up from Temple of Doom without spending more money?
Golan: How about the racism?
Globus: Great idea!
OK, racism aside, this terribly written chain of action scenes and cringeworthy comedy is actually pretty enjoyable. Plus it has a rousing score from the great Jerry Goldsmith. So, whilst it would be easy to lay into this clunky rip-off, I did have fun watching it.
