This story happened in 1935, one year earlier than the first one in 1936. It has nothing to do with the first episode of the story. Did I guess wrong about the foreshadowing in the first episode?
The plot of this film is still the usual routine of treasure hunt films. Several major elements are readily available. Treasures, foreign land, evil opponents, blonde beauty, and faithful servants, plus our hero, Indiana Jones. The story of the film is also an old routine. The protagonist and heroine have gone through all the hardships, finally defeated the evil opponent, obtained the treasure, and embraced the beauty... This plot is very clichéd.
Especially, the last shot of the film made me want to laugh. A perfect ending: most of the characters cheered facing the camera, surrounded by them, the hero and heroine kissed affectionately, and then the subtitles... Impressed.
The above point of view, of course, is still based on my point of view of the 21st century. If you change to the perspective of the 1980s, this is a very good adventure treasure hunt. There are all kinds of elements. Crowd battles, high-altitude plane crashes, small river rapids, secret room adventures, etc., all kinds of exciting chase scenes are available. In the 1980s, Hollywood was a dream factory for shooting such an outstanding movie, and Spielberg was also a dream master.
Although the film is good, the plot in China is too divorced from reality. How can that Chinese kid speak fluent English? Isn’t it an exaggeration? China’s education is so advanced? The opening song and dance scene is also a bit exaggerated, it looks like a Hollywood song and dance film of the 1940s and 50s, not like Chinese dance at all. The most funny thing is that I didn't understand a word of the Chinese words spoken by those Chinese people and the kid. Which language is that? It's okay to be dedicated.
It turns out that when shooting movies in Hollywood, there are also times when they are not dedicated.
The choice of the heroine is much better than the first one, at least she looks very beautiful, and the characters also have personalities: one is love for money, the other is screaming. Her screams and various shouts run through the film, without speaking with a loud voice, and her lung capacity is also very good. Such a film should choose such a heroine.
Generally speaking, it is a good Hollywood treasure hunt, but I always watch the same type of film, and I feel tired.
