The series heads west to Africa for this next edition in the DVD instalments. Indiana Jones (Sean Patrick Flannery) and his companion Remy (Ronny Coutteure) get a transfer to the African plains, where Indy duly gets both of them lost after taking the wrong train. A stroke of luck sees them team up with Indy's old friend Frederick Selous (Paul Freeman), who helps Indy tackle the Germans in two daring missions...
There is a wonderful sense of fun running through this instalment. A returning Paul Freeman, with support from Ronald Fraser and Mac McDonald, brings a good sense of camaraderie to the story that comes off well on screen. Tom Bell, appearing in the second part, brings the right tone of sinisterness and animal cunning to the role of Col. Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck, a military genius whom Indy attempts to capture.
The African scenery and wild-life are caught well on screen and there are some well-paced action scenes on a railtrack and a hot-air balloon.
Enjoyable stuff.
