If I had to pick my 10 favorite films of all times at least one of these would be in it if not all through! If you have never watched an Indiana Jones film then you are surely missing out on a lot. Harrison Ford as the lead role and Spielberg directing! its no wonder why these 3 films are considerd as so brilliant.
Dr Jones is more than your average archeologist, hes one that gets his hands dirty, fighting bad guys with less conventional means and still managing to save the day!
Raiders of the lost Ark.
This is the film that starts with probebly one of the most famous film scenes ever, Harrison Ford running for his life being followed by a huge boulder. The story follows that a group of Nazi's have started digging for a religeous artifact near Cairo in Egypt. Dr jones must find out what they are looking for and stop them before the Nazis gain an upper hand in the world.
Temple of Doom.
Again Dr jones is back this time in India after a nasty run in with a Chinese triad Dr Jones is rescued by Short Round his pre teen side kick that could do to learn a few more driving skills. After arriving to india in a rather unluxurious way Indiana and Short find themsleves in a village where the mysterious Magic stones have been stolen and their children as well. After Indiana discouvers the mine where the children are being forced to work and a Temple where human sacrifices are made. An exciting mine cart chase continue as well as a fight on a bridge a cross a river filled with Crocodiles.
A film that is truley amazing however possible the weakest of the 3.
The Last Crusade.
My favorite of the 3 and a truley remarkable story, with Sean Conery being introduced as Dr Jones Sr. This film again follows a strong religeous sence as this time Indiana is searching for the one and only holy grail, once again he is being closely pursued by Nazis. This time the story is more complex as not everyone is as who they seem, after a series of fights and high action sequences Indiana finally finds himself on the path to the Holy Grail. Meeting the final grail knight that has guarded the shrine his whole life Indiana must face the ultimate decision.
These films are definatly worth buying and make a stunning part of any film buffs collection. They are great value for money ane any one young or old wont be able to help themselves but enjoy these great films!
Totally worth every penny and great fun!

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
Advantages: One of the Greatest Heroes of All Time is recieving his DVD Glory Disadvantages: Absoultely Nothing...and I think many others would contest to that
