what a great film!!!!! period

Rating: Null/10 (19 September 2004)

I really do love the Indiana Jones series. Though Temple of Doom does tend to get a little over-the-top, it is still a good movie.
The Raiders of the Lost Ark is a great start, to a great series.
The acting is really good. Harrison Ford does a nice job of convincing you that he is Dr. Jones. I really couldn't see anyone else in the role of Indiana Jones, other then Harrison Ford. Karen Allen also does a great job in this movie. She works very well alongside Harrison Ford. John Rhys-Davies also does a great job in his very funny role.
The story is also very good. It involves Nazi's going on a hunt for the Ark of the Covenant. Indiana Jones is hired by the government to try and find it.
There is also a fair amount of scenes with action in them. My particular favorite is Indiana fighting the big Nazi around the airplane. Another favorite is the truck fight scene, were Jones is throwing guys from a large truck. Along the way, crashing into numerous objects like cars, walls, and trees.
I would strongly recommend this movie to anyone who loves Action movies.
