About
If you enjoy old-fashioned, exotic adventure romances with palace intrigue, escapes, and a splash of mysticism, this should satisfy; Not for you if you need fast pacing, realism, or modern sensibilities like in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Pros: colorful palaces and temples; pulpy high adventure; famous dance sequence | Cons: slow talky stretches; cheesy effects at times; dated portrayals
