Siskel & Ebert thought it was a dog, and I think it was generally panned by most critics.

I honestly can't wrap my head around anyone not at least liking this film.
Wilder's character is so earnest and sweet hearted, and there is genuine chemistry between him and Ford, in a part that slides right in between Han and Indy, without feeling like a lazy imitation of either (I realize Indy was still in his future). Then you fold in another entertainingly boo and hiss-able villain turn by William Smith...hell, I absolutely adore this movie.

Not digging the key art they're using, but the discs the important thing.

Very, VERY happy to see this getting released.
