First in the trilogy, low budget, great locations & scenery, decent action music, MEANT to be a TV version of the IJ flicks--right down to the hat! The scenery alone makes the 3 films worth watching. This first one sets it up & isn't as good as the next two. It was all about the adventure and treasure seeking and ancient artifacts, with some humor and sensual attraction in the mix. Nice that they used local actors and crew especially! Too many naysayers--should just dig it for what it is, pardon the archeological pun.
