The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones: Spring Break Adventure

Back when having a car was about as rare as three-legged ballet dancer Indy aims to impress everyone at school by turning up to the prom in a Bugatti race-car and put tormentor Butch to shame. His girlfriend's dad is Edward Stratemayer (the guy who created the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew and Tom Swift) and promises to loan him the Bugatti until the engine fails. Desperate to get it fixed in time Indy takes it to Edison Industries to have the guys in the science lab fit a new electric battery into it.

But since the oil company's are such a fiendish bunch they steal the plans for the battery and trash the lab, leaving Indy to rescue them on his own if he wants to make an impression at the prom.

In the second half Indy travels to Mexico with his cousin to have a good time in a whorehouse but he is kidnapped by a bunch of Mexican Revolutionaries and pressured into fighting for their cause. He gets to meet Pancho Villa, trash William Randolph Hearst's mansion south of the border and antagonize General Patton. In the end he just wants to go home but not before getting revenge on Demetrius, the baddie who eluded him six years earlier in Egypt.

A solid adventure with a good cast, though it's weird seeing Lloyd Owen still play the Connery role since his is one year YOUNGER than Flannery who plays his son. It works though...somehow.

...seems to start out a little slow, but then it gets going toward the end. Spring Break adventure combines Indy's first adventure at home in NJ and then it starts off an entirely new adventure in Mexico with Pancho Villa. Remy is introduced for the first time, and Indy first learns what war is all about. All in all, I think it was a good movie to start out the older young Indy with Flannery.
