What a fun ride the Doctor Jones has been; and it all started with The Lost Ark. The first Dr. Jones episode is in South America where Doctor Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) rescues a rare artifact, only to have it stolen by Belloq (Paul Freeman). Then we get to the real story of the movie--the search for the lost ark and covenant, in which is kept the ten commandments. This reportedly has great power and the Nazis want anything with power; so they too are searching. Indy first visits a former girlfriend, Marion (Karen Allen) in Nepal, whose father was an archeologist and had collected a piece to help find the ark. They both escape a murder attempts and head to Egypt, where they meet the third member of their crew, Sellah (John Rhys-Davies). Belloq is working with the Nazis, but they are digging in the wrong lace. One of the cute things of this show is the persistence of Indiana Jones.
This movie is terrific fun. It puts Harrison Ford in his second successful trilogy and indicates he is truly a star performer.
