An art collector appeals to Jones to embark on a search for the Holy Grail. He learns that another archaeologist has disappeared while searching for the precious goblet, and the missing man is his own father, Dr. Henry Jones. The artifact is much harder to find than they expected, and its powers are too much for those impure in heart.

Critics Consensus

Lighter and more comedic than its predecessor, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade returns the series to the brisk serial adventure of Raiders, while adding a dynamite double act between Harrison Ford and Sean Connery.

Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times

As I watched it, I felt a real delight, because recent Hollywood escapist movies have become too jaded and cynical, and they have lost the feeling that you can stumble over astounding adventures just by going on a hike with your Scout troop.

Rated: 3.5/4

New York Times

Of the three Jones films, The Last Crusade may well become the sentimental favorite, the Indiana to end them all.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

You suspect this movie Is going to be a great deal of fun from the very beginning, when River Phoenix, as the young Indiana Jones, snatches a jeweled cross from grave robbers and flees with it.

...a rightfully beloved film, a classic story of humble, heroic virtues against moronic, hive-mind evil…Among the action-set-pieces and last-minute rescues, Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade ingeniously has its cake and eats it when it comes to belief...

Rated: 5/5

Alternate Ending

An awfully good and deliciously watchable popcorn movie, made by probably the single most reliable director of popcorn movies in the history of American cinema, when he was still pretty close to the peak of his powers.

Rated: 3.5/5

An absolute 10/10 on the big screen!!! We had 8 people in the theater which was 7 more than when I saw Raiders, so that was cool. It was an amazing experience, the music, the 4k scan, and of course all the heart of Spielberg and everyone else involved. It’s my favorite on the series, and since I was 4 when it came out, I’m glad I got to fully enjoy and experience the magic in theaters. There is another showing on the 1/15/25, and I can’t recommend it enough!
