    See it again

    "Raiders" is the first and best of the Indiana Jones movies.

    I have a hard time believing that anyone hasn't seen this movie so I'll skip the plot and go straight for the main reason you should watch it again. The transfer to DVD is absoloutely stunning, probably the most impressive clean up I've ever seen. It really looks as though it could've been filmed yesterday.

    The sound has been given a nice makeover as well. Forever a classic, this movie can't be seen too many times.

    Well, what can I say? Some movies don't date very well, but this has everything. Humor, mild horror, romance, action - they should have had that australian dood in this, the one that plays with snakes and crocs and all :) Great movie and well worth the watch, brings back memories of Christmas 1995
