nick S @Nick_S Sep 13, 2026 A solid movie with good cast, although really lacking a lot of highlights for an adventure movie. See more Joseph T @WildWestern Jan 5, 2026 Alternate reality Indiana Jones. Overall, great adventure. Influences on Indiana Jones are apparent and wonderfully hidden into the narrative, making it perfect for Indiana Jones fanatics looking for a treasure hunt. Charleston gives a fun performance as local dirtbag Harry Steel with a slight, not quite so redemption at the end that is completely on brand. In addition, the film gives a surprisingly large amount of respect to the indigenous people of Peru, especially for the era it was made.

See more Michael B @RT04806184 Jun 15, 2023 Very slow snd nott great despite a good cast and only noteworthy as treasure hunter Charlton Heston is dressed as Indiana Jones. Appearances from Robert Young Leon Askin (Gen. Butkhalter in Hogan's Heroes) Marion Ross (Mrs Cunningham from Happy Days and the Australian actor Michael Pate who often played indians or in this case a Peruvian. Maybe the first 15 mins and jump forward to about half way then see how you go.

At the same time, racist misogynist, and wants us to root for and believe in piece of shit protagonist. Indiana Jones being inspired by this is pretty clear though. See more r 9 @RT00952237 Apr 12, 2020 'Secret of the Incas' never really gets going, for me. I adore that it was filmed on location in Peru, it gives us some beautiful shots of the South American country; most notably of Machu Picchu. That's where the greatness ends though. It isn't a poor film by any means, but nothing else springs to mind in a positive manner about it. The cast are solid if a little mundane. Charlton Heston does a fine job in the lead role as Harry, with Thomas Mitchell supporting competently. The plot execution is what lets this down in my opinion, as it's an attractive premise but never feels like the majestic adventure that it should be. See more Read all reviews
