Raiders of the Lost Ark | Year: 1981 Classification: Adventure Directed: - Steven Spielberg Actors/Actresses: - Harrison Ford as Dr. Henr - Karen Allen - Denholm Elliott Great entertainment - the best action/adventure movie ever! Raiders of the Lost Ark is, quite simply, the best action/adventure movie ever made! Often imitated, but never surpassed, Raiders of the Lost Ark drew on decades of B-pictures and Saturday Morning Serials and combined their influences into a big budget version that is pure excitement and entertainment. Raiders features great action sequences, some truly wonderful scenes, lots of humor, and great performances by the stars, especially Harrison Ford as the inimitable Indy. Essentially, Raiders of the Lost Ark is about Indiana Jones' (Harrison Ford) quest to find the lost Ark of the Covenant before the Nazis do. After finding the ark, however, it is taken away from him, and he must chase after the Nazis in the hope of getting the ark back from them. To say any more about the plot would be to give too much away... Admittedly, the plot of this movie is somewhat ridiculous, but given how entertaining and funny it is - who cares? For instance, in a very funny scene, Indy is faced with an impressive Arab swordsman in Cario - the man does all this fancy swordplay (oh no...Indy's met his match) and then, with an exasperated look, Indy simply shoots him. This scene actually was created by accident, when Harrison Ford, who was sick during the filming, asked if the scene could be shortened. Anyhow, this movie is pure entertainment. In general, I'm not a huge fan of action/adventure movies, but Raiders is an exception. I really enjoyed watching this non-stop thrill ride (which, incidentially, is OK for the whole family to watch) and am sure you will have just as much fun! So, if you haven't already seen this, grab this movie, some popcorn and enjoy! One Of Those Movie Classics, "Raiders of the Lost Ark"! What can I say except that "Raiders of the Lost Ark" is a classic movie gem? With George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Harrison Ford contributing to this film, it's one of those movie greats which will always remain as one of my favorites to watch forever.
