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

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

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

Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é bacaninha, e alguns ajudam a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, e gostei da cena em que o indiana jones ganha um autografó do Adolf hitler.

Kid R.

lives up to the first one perfectly and might even surpass it. The plot is riveting and Indiana and his dad’s dynamic is hilarious. The main flaw is that they mostly bumble their way through the entire movie like it’s a Scooby Doo episode but it still works. Also Sallah returns yayy

This has been a favorite since childhood - I grew up idolizing Indiana Jones. Therefore my review will be biased highly and I should not write one. Especially this particular Indiana Jones movies that I watched over and over as a kid.
