Jakten på den försvunna skatten

Raiders of the Lost Ark

En på snudden till felfri hyllning till gamla matinéfilmer som för ovanlighetens skull är bättre än den genre den efterapar.

...one of the most exhilarating examples of action/adventure cinema...

The film's crammed with great stuff: creepy spiders and skulls, and rays of sunlight that open granite doors. Still a treat.

It's a Boy's Own Adventure, a whiz-bang slamarama, a Bruised Forearm movie (you squeeze the arm of your date every time something startles you).

Each standalone set piece is virtuoso in its pacing, timing of jokes and emotional payoff.
