Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Kelly R. said: In the first of the series of Indiana Jones adventures, our archaeologist hero goes on a quest to find the Ark of the Covenant before his Nazi foes, who plan to abuse its mythical powers. It's a slightly scary and action-packed story that makes a fun movie for tweens and teens.
Rated PG
