Raiders of the Lost Ark

Pros: thrills, action, comedy, screenplay,

Cons: a bit over acted in some scenes

Review: Who can remember first seeing this movie in the theater? I can, it was in Monticello, Minnesota back in 1981 that I was first introduced to Indiana Jones. Of course, I was only 9, but I was a huge Star Wars fan. So I remembered seeing Han Solo in...

Pros: Wonderful heroic comedy

Cons: none

Review: The action in this movie starts right away! There is nothing like the stories written of jungle explorers, Tarzan and friends, flying biplanes, wearing leather bomber jackets, aviator glasses, fedoras, and carrying a machete (or, hey, bullwhip) to...

Pros: Well Directed, Excellent Soundtrack, For all ages

Cons: None

Review: Raiders of the Lost Ark is the best film of it's kind and contains some of Spielberg's greatest action footage. A simple (but good) tale told with fantastic skill. Take note of the shot right as Indy realizes that something is awry in the Incan cave...

Pros: per

Cons: true

The Bottom Line: Someone recover my Pearl Harbor review dammit, I'm losing money by the minute on that thing

Review: This writeoff, started by kenshin-guy, is dedicated to the first in a series of either games, movies or books. Participants each wrote about the first entry in a series that spawned many sequels or reincarnations. Here are the other writers,...

Pros: Adventure packed Harrison Ford at his best

Cons: The adventures are almost always the same

The Bottom Line: This is one of few 80's movies that makes such movies as The Mummy what they are today. So if you like the Mummy you'll love this one.

Review: There are so many wonderful 80's - 90's movies that I thought I'd sit down and write about them. Raiders of the Lost Ark is among one of those.

Raiders is jam packed with memorable scenes, that have stayed in the mind of its viewers ever...

Pros: Harrison Ford, story, George and Steven

Cons: ?

Review: This is the first installment of the Indiana Jones trilogy which I grew up and I love. George Lucas AND Steven Speilberg both worked on this. It's no wonder i can watch this over and over. Harrison Ford is perfect as Indiana. Of course the character...

Pros: Wonderful action/comedy mix and excellent characters

Cons: None

Review: This is my second favorite of the Indiana Jones movies but I think it is really the best. The action has just the right mix of comedy to it so as not to bore anyone watching it. And of course how can you not like Dr./Indiana Jones?
All the...

Pros: Rough, hard look, fantastical story

Cons: Too violent

Review: I'm not very old, but I do recall a time when the prefix "Indiana Jones and" was not at the beginning of "Raiders of the Lost Ark," but maybe that's just paranoia setting in. But most likely it's some brainiac's idea of marketing, as if people don't...

Pros: Special effests rock, story is fascinating, acting and directing are great.

Cons: Wish it would never end...

Review: I love treasure stories. They have fascinated me from the time I was a very young child right up until the present day. That's why I originally went to see 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'. To me it was a fascinating concept to make a film about a treasure...

Pros: Great Plot, Acting, Action and Suspense

Cons: None

Review: The entire Indiana Jones Collection is astounding, but were it not for the production of the very first, Raiders, the others could never have existed. I love the plot, the acting, the music, and everything else. Harrison Ford plays his role as the...
