She was a horrible actress, but Speilberg obviously wasn't looking for her acting skills
I actually liked her character (not loved but liked) but not better than Marion's. What I can't believe is that she is actually only 31 in the movie! I thought she was like 40 something.
Okay editing this to say that I watched it again today and forgot how HORRIBLE she actually was in this! Ughshe ruined every single scene she was in. The overacting the non existing acting skills, my lord she must have had one heck of an agent back then! I didn't dislike the character, I HATED Kate Capshaw as Willieboohiss
The good news is, I loved shorty in this, he's so adorable and what acting chops he had back then! -

She probably did steal the show (mostly because she was in the worst one), but she's still not as good as Marion. Indy and Marion are just good together.

Yeah, i thought she was humorously annoying, which seems like that was asked out of the character ( you know, for Indy's facial expressions and snappy comments). it's isn't like she's a poor actress; I watched her in "Dreamscape" and she does a great job being subtle and natural with her character in that film. also, I think that's the film she looks the best in.
If I recall correctly, she didn't take her clothes off in very many of her roles:-) -

watch "A Girl Thing", her and Elle Macpherson (you read it right) sex scene, they're both nekkid, it's rather hot. You can find it on YouTube

Ah, definitely did not like her in Temple of Doom. but not only her, i didnt like the ShortRound kid and i felt like Indy's acting was overdone and bad in temple of Doom as well.
something happened with the movie to bring everyone's acting skills down, surely.
another worst bit: at the end of the movie when she's walking away from indy and he uses the whip please! so Cheesy and just really Bad. the both of them! -

I thought she was hilarious too and she fit perfectly for that film. I don't know if I think Marion would have fit as well for that movie. I love Willie's progression from spoiled nightclub singer to a person who's helping people, protective toward Short Round and growing up. And Kate played it all to perfection.
Not to mention she's stunningly beautiful.:) -

Oh, please.
Her appearance is average at best, and she cant act worth a damn.
Her retirement from acting was not just so she could raise a family.
It was also so her utter lack of talent would devalue the Spielberg franchise.
Wise decision. -

Well I didn't have a problem with her in Temple when I saw it as a pre teen. So I don't see why I should claim I didn't like her now nearly 30 years later.
If I did claim I didn't like her, I might be being pretentious and snooty about it and disengenuine.
