What a treat! I have always loved adventure movies and this one is a classic. Good acting, well directed.

Indiana Jones begins a globe-trotting quest to find the lost Ark of the Covenant before a group of Nazis led by a rival archaeologist can get their hands on the ancient artifact.

The ultimate adventure movie of all-time, Raiders of the Lost Ark introduces one of the greatest film heroes of all-time

in its series' namesake, Indiana Jones. Played to perfection by Harrison Ford, Indy's first adventure features several iconic movie names at the top of their game -- Steven Spielberg as the director, Ford as the lead actor, and John Williams crafting the masterful soundtrack all come together to create one of the most iconic films of all-time. There's not a single moment that's dull or boring, and it will continue to cement its legacy as a classic for years to come. Highly recommended.

Content Concerns: There's some violence with a little bit of bloodshed in some scenes. Language-wise, there are about 8 uses of profanity, two of which are "g-dd-mn."
