5/06: Raiders of the Lost Ark is an action-adventure picture for people of all ages.

There's nothing like it with the exception of the next two sequels.

All in all, Indiana Jones is one of the greatest and most iconic characters ever created in cinema history.

3/16: If there's a film that defines the action-adventure genre, it's Raiders of the Lost Ark.

No movie gets a viewer going at the beginning than this one when Indiana Jones has his bullwhip ready to get rid of the gun before he's faced with the most devilish booby traps deep inside the cave of the South America jungle.

All in all, Raiders of the Lost Ark is a must-see for people of all ages and is what movies should be all about.

3/22: Raiders of the Lost Ark continues to be a great adventure.

The funniest part is when the scimater-wielding Arab tried to have a duel, Indiana Jones didn't feel like it and just pulled out his revolver to shoot him dead.

All in all, Raiders of the Lost Ark will always stand the test of time.
