I love this film

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2000)

There is no point in doing a deep analysis of this film. Its just a great adventure/action film. No matter what people say, there are links with Raiders e.g. Indy can easily confirm the identity of the Ark from the drawing underneath Venice. Alright there are uncomfortable similarities between the two. Nazis, religious treasure, fight on a moving vehicle...
But the best part is the interaction between Connery and Ford. They have a very convincing relationship on screen, and it is easy to imagine them as father and son. The comedy in this film is fabulous. The only thing is that if Indy's father is scottish, as is obvious, surely he'd be able to put on a better scottish accent than he did?
The best joke comes at the end and involves a well loved dog. This just tops off the film and the non stop ride it is and is a great example of the father-son relationship. Whether this film is better than Raiders is difficult to say, for me i think they're both as good as each other.
