After the recent disappointment of 2008's anaemic Indiana Jones and the Stupidly Long Title (aka Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls), I thought I'd revisit the original trilogy to remind me about what the films so great, and what makes Indy such an iconic figure who deserves better than a luke-warm new adventure. A tribute to the old RKO serials of the 40s and 50s, Raiders is, pure and simple, a fun movie that can be watched and re-watched dozens of times and enjoyed just as much every time.

With Indiana Jones firmly back in our minds following the successful release of a fourth Indy film, the original trilogy will no doubt become more popular as a younger generation storms to see what they hype is about. The first of the original trilogy matches the direction of Stephen Spielberg with the production skills of George Lucas and his Star Wars golden boy Harrison Ford, and took the world by storm when it was released in 1981. The film is set in 1936, and tells of Dr Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford), a college professor obsessed with archaeology and the retention of ancient relics and their safety by inclusion in museums. Jones pits himself against the ... Read the complete review

Indy's just retrieved an ancient artefact known as a Golden Idol. While back in America continuing with his teaching Indy is approached by two Army Intelligence men who inform him that Nazis are looking for his old mentor. When Indiana arrives in Nepal to track down his old mentor he is greeted with his ex, Marion (Karen Allen) who is still angry with Indy for the way he treated her, they don't have much time to argue though because they are quickly attacked in the bar that Marion runs, the two manage to escape and go ...
