Indiana Jones

Indiana Jones films available on 4K UHD, ranked by transfer quality.

Raiders of the Lost Ark(1981)

dir. Steven Spielberg

S-Tier Paramount 4K. Spielberg's adventure masterpiece. The individual steelbook with the original title and poster art is much better-looking than the box set artwork. All five Indy films are considered reference-quality discs. The steelbook art debate between the individual releases and the Best Buy set was heated.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom(1984)

7.3/10

dir. Steven Spielberg

S-Tier

S-Tier Paramount 4K. Spielberg's darkest Indy. The individual steelbook came after the box set, which meant double-dipping for anyone who already owned the 4-film collection. The mine cart chase is the demo sequence.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade(1989)

7.8/10

dir. Steven Spielberg

S-Tier

S-Tier Paramount 4K. The best Indy film by popular vote. The individual steelbook has been as low as $13 USD on Amazon and under $15 USD at Best Buy. Paramount has released and re-released these steelbooks enough times that early adopters are pretty tired of it.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull(2008)

6.0/10

dir. Steven Spielberg

S-Tier

S-Tier Paramount 4K. Crystal Skull is the Indy film nobody loves but everyone buys to complete the set. Paramount released individual steelbooks after the box set, leaving anyone who bought the collection feeling like they'd been double-dipped. The 4K set also had loose discs rattling around inside the case on arrival, which didn't help.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny(2023)

6.5/10

dir. James Mangold

A-Tier

Finding himself in a new era, and approaching retirement, Indy wrestles with fitting into a world that seems to have outgrown him. But as the tentacles of an all-too-familiar evil return in the form of an old rival, Indy must don his hat and pick up his whip once more to make sure an ancient and powerful artifact doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
