Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Indy finally gets it, but forgets it.
I thought, from reading the description, that this would be boring. But it wasn't, not by a long shot. It's probably the best "Young Indy".

The action is limited to the first five or so minutes, where Lieutenant De Fonz (aka Indy) disobeys his superior and tells the troops to advance instead of retreat. This results in victory, and a promotion to Captain, but also the Major holding a grudge. Naturally, Indy and the Major are then teamed up on a mission to retrieve some weapons.

The opening battle sequence was even more graphic then "Trenches of Hell", and when Indy grabs the machine gun and mows done countless men, we see just how far he's come (or fallen) in less than a year. I love this one for all the character developement Indy undergoes, especially in relation to the previous videos. It's good to keep in mind that it's now December of 1916, and just last February all Indy cared about ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Action, but above all, Indy learns to care about life!
In the other movies, Indy never seemed to care about human life. In this he learns lots about life, feelings and points of view. This movie should be seen by everyone who can see it! It teaches valuable lessons and is still a classic Indiana Jones film.

I have always wanted to be a director and these movies have already taught me alot about the types of movies people like. I have used these and other George Lucas and Steven Spielberg films to use as exaples. Right now my friends and I are working on a film. We hope to have it completed by Jr. High.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Open minded people buy this!
This film lacks the cheesy comedy of the traditional indy videos. It explores philosophy and human nature. Indy has doubts about his involvment in the Belgian armys imperialist war in Africa. After speaking to an African native soldier about the war Indy learns that the Belgians will not leave Africa for the Africans but merely take it over from the Germans they are liberating it from. While it is action packed it also shows the political science of WWI. Get this!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Absolutely the very best of the entire series of Young Indy
This one ranks as my personal favorite of the entire series George did. Frank Durabont (The Shawshank Redemption) offers a compelling study of human nature both at its best and at its worst (albeit with good intent). In this psychological tale, Indy confronts the moral question of saving the life of a child in a jungle ravaged by disease even though it may put his mission and his men at risk. He sides with his men in this moral quandry and opposes his commanding officer, a man ruthless and shrewd in conduct but professional as regards the mission. In a twist of fate, it's the child who saves them, with a lesson of sympathy and humility harkening back to the ideology that child is father of man. Later, Indy meets Albert Schweitzer, a German (thus by nature of heritage Indy's sworn enemy) who dedicates himself to comforting and curing the dying Africans. Indy learns lessons in political science, prejudice and ... Read More
