The greatest action film! - Raiders of the Lost Ark Reviews

Harrison Ford and Sean Connery was one of my most memorable team-ups ever. Sean Connery is perfect for Indy's long lost father. The film has the best storyline of the three starting off as a flashback of when Indy was young and still living with his father. It shows his first great finding but failed attempt to recover an old crucifix from a group of henchmen. It also shows his development of his fear of snakes. It picks up two years after the second film in 1938 and he finally recovers the crucifix which he had failed to get when he was young. The story goes off into the secret of the Holy Grail, the cup which Jesus drank from on the last supper and caught his blood from the crucifiction. Being driven from the promise of eternal life to who drank from it, Indy and the Nazis again race to see who finds the religous artifact. I think this is the best of the film because it goes more in depth to Indy's personality with his father as well to be there to motivate him to race against the evil world power at the time. The acting, special-effects, and Spielberg's directing are also even better than the first film's. This film was under-rated and deserves more credit than even the first film.
