Simply the greatest action /adventure film of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (29 November 2019)

What can you say about this film that's not already been said? Raiders of the lost Ark is an absolute masterpiece, Harrison Ford was great as han solo but he was just perfect here. Compared to it's sequels, this film just feels more gritty and grounded in the main (though last crusade tried to emulate it) the violence in it is visceral and more brutal than it's supposed family-appeal status, in short, in a lot of respects this was 'die hard' years before Bruce pulled on the vest, it's an absolute blast of a film that never fails to entertain through any of it's runtime and for me, has taken on timeless classic status, in no small part to the stunning cinematography and outstanding John Williams score. Everything about this film is just brilliant, the villains are excellent and the humour is placed well. There is literally nothing to complain about, it's pretty much the perfect movie.
This film is a stone cold classic and can hold it's head up high against any film in my opinion.
