The first and third Indiana Jones movies are great. But I thought this one, the middle chapter, was awful, and offensive. As others have commented, it comes off as racist, with white heroes and brown villains. Also, it is overtly dependent on the threat of violence to children--much like Jurassic Park, another Spielberg movie I have trouble enjoying for the same reason--but at least Jurassic Park has those amazing dinosaur special effects; Temple of Doom is mostly just a big gross-out, with way too much screaming and not enough fun.
