Sure, it's a vastly more popular and well-liked movie compared to nearly all of her earlier movies (even some of her later ones). But nonetheless, it's seen by many as either a poor Indiana Jones imitator, or basically a movie that has little to offer. I strongly disagree with that criticism. While it might've tried to capitalize on Indiana Jones' success, the movie turned out to be one of the best homages to that style of film-making, as far as I'm concerned. It's highly fascinating, as fun and adventurous as you could want, and to top it off, the movie looks amazing and happens to be pretty well-constructed for the most part (and of course, how can I not acknowledge Jennifer's jaw dropping beauty). All in all, I feel it's one of the best and most underrated films of its kind.
As far as her comedies go, Career Opportunities is a complete blast. Perhaps it is memorable to a lot of people because of Jennifer and Jennifer alone. And while she's undeniably the best part about the movie by far, the whole thing is innocent fun. And pure early 90's awesomeness.
