Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)

Director Steven Spielberg continued his homage to the classic cliffhanger serials of his youth with this follow-up to the rousing Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's a trifle overblown and unsubtle, but it still has great sets, fun performances and terrific action — the standout is a wild rollercoaster ride through an Indian mine. Harrison Ford is consistently engaging as Indy and goes a long way in making up for the inferior story, gruesome gags and Kate Capshaw (the future Mrs Spielberg), who plays the shrill and annoying heroine.
