Steven Spielberg's valentine to the lost art of the movie serial is my nomination
for the most exciting action film ever made! Set in 1936, the film chronicles
the adventures of Archaeolgy professor Dr. Indiana Jones' globe-trotting
attempts to recover the mythical ark of the covenant -- a chest which is
supposed to contain the remnants of the original ten commandments -- before
the Nazi army beats him to it. Though the film and its protagonist have passed
into the realm of instantly recognizable movie myth and have been recycled
and imitated in a thousand lesser films, books and video games, the film
remains as fresh as it ever was and still has the power to excite like no
other. To see this film is to become a child again and revel in good
old-fashioned swashbuckling. This is the movie that made me realize that
there could not possibly be anything more fun than making movies.
