Film Review - Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Raiders of the Lost Ark was first released in 1981 and stars Harrison Ford as archaeologist Indiana Jones, who is seeking the Ark of the Covenant, but he’ll have to contend with the Nazi’s first in order to get it.


Here is where I have to be honest, even though I greatly enjoyed Raiders, I thought that Mad Max 2, directed by George Miller and released a few months after this film did a much better job at creating action in a way that was exhilarating, exciting and scary almost all at once.


Out of 5, this gets a 4, it’s a great film but I thought that Miller did it better with his film.
