It has lost some of its shiny 80s cheesy charm, I admit.
The first time I watched it, I thought Douglas was a blast, with all those punching one-liners and that wonderful non-chemistry he shared with Turner. But, watching it now, he's just a cheeky Indiana-wannabe.
Its a wonder how growing-up can make a difference to the whole perception you have of a movie. (I have been finding that out the hard way in a number of re-watches recently)

Sole exception - The Goonies. I swear I ll never grow out of that one, even when I am 90 (if I live that long).
