6. Raiders Of The Lost Ark
If you were to ask someone who they thought the greatest movie action hero of all time is, it's highly likely their answer will depend on their age. As the age of the person increases, chances are they're far more likely to cite Indiana Jones. While younger film fans were given their very own CGI-laden Indy outing with Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull - which was hugely popular amongst younger audiences but disappointing for many fans of the original trilogy - the first instalment, Raiders Of The Lost Ark, is far and away the best in the franchise, capturing the spirit of the Saturday matinee movies to perfection. While it may have been one of the most successful blockbusters of the 1980s, Raiders Of The Lost Ark is pushing forty years old now, and if it is a film that's somehow slipped you by then it's essential viewing, not least as a reminder of how much better practical effects and crazy stunts are compared to computer graphics.
