I thought she was hilarious and she was supposed to be totally different from Marion.

I liked her, I just thought she was too weak for an Indy girl, unlike Karen Allen and Alison Doody, she just wined the whole time and screamed

You're not supposed to like her character.
It's like Burke in Aliens. You're not supposed to like him either.
Her character is supposed to add a level of complexity to the story.
She doesn't fit in and disrespectful to other cultures.

I love her. She gets ripped to shreds for screaming, I think we'd all be screaming in most of those situations. But she's lovable underneath all her pretenses, she grows as the film goes along. And she's gorgeous, her future husband got some dazzling shots of her.

Rather than add a "level of complexity", she essentially added a stereotype and pretty lame comic relief. But at least she was beautiful.

She & Short Round was the funniest in the movie

Another solid film Kate Capshaw is in is the 1997 film "The Locusts".

Her comedy performance was brilliance. It was a great part of what was otherwise a lousy film. She had me double over with laughter when she'd pull a really good line.
A boat? We're not sinking! We're crashing! AAAAAAHHHHH!

And who didn't love her whole rant- I was happy in Shanghai. I had a little house and a garden. Went to parties and premieres all the time. I HATE being outside!! I'm a singer! I can use my voice!
And the whole screaming/playing cards scene is gold.

Yeah, it's kind of embarrassing saying you like16d0 her but firstly, the opening number with her is good and, as others have said, she is great comic relief in a dark movie.

Doesn't she say "I'm a singer. I could lose my voice" ? In any case, she's awesome.

My son and his friends are watching it right now, and OMG! She did scream a lot! What a girl! (I AM getting a little sick of it).

I think she is great in the film.

I did! I wish it would have been her and Shortround to come back instead of Marion! Heck, she could have had his kid too! Indy 4 should end with Willie showing up with her kid! I am just a biased Willie (and Shortround) fan!
"Oh my God is he nuts?!" "He no nuts, he CRAZY!"

I love when she comes close to the camera under the "anything goes" musical segment.
Love her eyes and outfit in that scene.
Kate is gorgeous.
