Classic Friday : Raiders Of The Lost Ark (1981) 9/10

Starring : Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Paul Freeman, Ronald Lacey, John Rhys-Davies, Denholm Elliott, Alfred Molina
Director : Steven Spielberg
Running Time : 111 mins

Renowned archaeologist Dr. Indiana Jones (Ford) is hired by the American Government to locate the Ark of the Covenant, which legend has it still contains the tablets containing the Ten Commandments, but it’s not just Indy that’s after the Ark, as he finds himself pursued throught Nepal and Cairo by Nazis!

Probably the best movie ever to involve George Lucas, this definitely stands the test of time over 25 years after its release. Ford is the perfect choice to play the swashbuckling hero, and the effects are amazing for their time. If you haven’t already seen this film, then don’t you think it’s about time you did?
