6/10
End of the line of Corey Carrier
17 April 2008
Warning: Spoilers
In his final outing as Young Indy Corey Carrier goes out with a whimper rather than a bang, but that's to be expected since he's lies about dying in the last act.

The movie, written by Jonathan Hensleigh (Armageddon, Jumanji, Die Hard 3, The Punisher) opens with the Joneses traveling to India where local charlatan claims to have found the second coming of Christ (or something like it) in a modest local Indian boy. Indy makes pals with him and teaches him baseball. In return he gets a tour of Benares and learns of all the major religions and how they tie together.

It's then on to China where Indy takes ill after a visit to the great wall. With his father absent and their carriage stuck out in the wilds a peasant family take them in while Indy struggles to fight off Typhoid. In between his conscious moments we learn that Indy had a sister who also died when she was young.

A local doctor saves the day by sticking Indy full of acupuncture needles so the young adventurer can live to find the ark, rescue the slave children and drink from the holy grail.

And now for Sean Patrick Flannery...
