Overview

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 4K (1984)

Dashing, whip-wielding archaeologist-adventurer Indiana Jones is joined by comely chanteuse Willie and a 12-year-old sidekick named Short Round. Together they search for a mystical stone stolen from an Indian community and stumble upon a dangerous Thuggee cult. Exotic locales, wild chases, death-defying cliffhangers, last-minute rescues, screaming damsels, and tribal sacrifices are the order of the day as the threesome attempt to acquire the stolen stone.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

Reviewed by Martin Liebman July 21, 2022

Paramount has widely released a UHD SteelBook packaging variant for the classic 1984 Steven Spielberg Adventure film 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.' The disc and digital content is identical to that found in the wide release, which was before only available as part of standard packaging and SteelBook four-film 4K sets. See the 'Special Features and Extras' section of the review below for more on the SteelBook's look and feel.

Paramount's glossy SteelBook will attract fingerprints in its darker areas. The front panel recreates classic artwork for the film, depicting most prominently Indiana Jones top and just right of center, with Willie Scott and Short Round lining the bottom half of the right-hand side, along with a line of elephants. On the top and left portion is a recreation of the fiery, hellish temple chamber with Mola Ram and a few sword wielding Thuggees appearing. The film's title appears in the familiar color and script bottom left. The rear panel features an orange-ish world map with the three Sankara stones center. A bit of legalese and a couple of studio logos appear unobtrusively at the bottom. The spine is glossy-black with the film's title center in small print. A Paramount logo has been placed at the top and an UltraHD logo at the bottom, both in the same color as the back paneling.

Inside, the digital copy code and the folded poster are tucked underneath the left-hand-side tabs. The lone UHD disc is situated on the right on a central hub. The inner print is a two-panel spread that features a classic scene from the film in which Indy is stuck in the middle of a rope and wood bridge with Thuggees on either side of him. It's a natural fit for the two-panel interior, allowing for an iconic scene to naturally stretch across the length.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation  4.0 of 5

It's nice to see Paramount bring back original artwork for this one rather than drop some unattractive Photoshop hack. The rear panel is a little uninspired, but the front is great, as is the interior. The poster is handsome and well worth framing. This SteelBook earns my highest recommendation.
