Best Indiana Jones Ever!

Rating: 10/10 (21 March 2012)

Not only is "Raiders of the Lost Ark" the first and best movie in the Indiana Jones trilogy and it's also one of the best movies of ALL time.
It stars Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, an archaeologist who sets off to find the lost Ark of the Covenant, the chest that carried the Ten Commandments. He teams up with his ex-girlfriend, Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen) and he dodges bullets, punches, Nazis and his arch-rival, Rene Belloq (Paul Freeman) who is working with the the Nazis to find the ark. There are some pretty fantastic scenes in this movie, the beginning with the boulder, the plane-fight sequence and also the truck chase but I think the scene most connected with this movie is the end. Awesome movie and definitely one of the best to ever make it on film.
"Temple of Doom", "Last Crusade", and to a much lesser degree, "Crystal Skull" were worthy successors, but "Raiders" started it all, and is easily the best in the franchise.
