I agree. Watched the second one the other day after years and this movie did not age well. The portrayel of the woman was unbearable, a massive downgrade from the first one. The racism also made me feel uncomfortable. Nonetheless, I finished that movie again, but even plotwise and in terms of overall cinematic quality, it is the weakest of the three.

I'm honestly not sure whether I think Temple of Doom or Crystal Skull is worse. I'd watch them back-to-back to decide, but I really don't want to do that to myself.
