"Indiana Jones": Do not love beauty, love treasure

The famous "Indiana Jones" series has long been admired. With the idea of ​​"you can't read a book without borrowing it", after three years, I remembered to read it.

Before watching this movie, I knew that this is a treasure hunt movie. The treasure hunt film has its own set of fixed patterns, and this film is certainly no exception, not to mention that this is still a work in 1981. Therefore, before watching this film, I didn't have much expectations.

After reading it, I didn't expect it. Forever both good and evil, forever lonely hero, forever beauties as a foil, forever evil does not suppress righteousness....... There is nothing new.

Of course, for me in the 21st century, I have watched a large number of Hollywood blockbusters, which of course cannot satisfy my feelings of watching movies. If you look at it from the perspective of the 1980s, this should be a great masterpiece. In the era when computer special effects were rarely used, it was not easy to shoot so many big scenes, such as the tense car chase scene and the scene of falling down the cliff. There are many scenes of explosions and fights, which are not inferior to the scenes shot now. In terms of the movie's action scenes and special effects, it's still pretty good.

In terms of the rhythm and story of the whole film, although there is no novelty, it also tells a vivid story. It should have influenced many later treasure hunt films. I saw a lot of deja vu plots in it. Of course, it wasn't that the film copied others. The facts should be exactly the opposite. After all, this film was shot very early.

The protagonist of the actor is the very famous Harrison Ford. From this film, you can see his acting routines. Forever lonely hero, forever righteous warrior. Thinking about the many films he shot after this movie, the characters are all stereotyped. As an audience, I don't think it is new. How can he act for nearly 30 years? Don't you think your play path is too narrow?

The heroine was a relatively unsuccessful choice. It's not very beautiful and has no temperament. Besides, according to the usual thinking, should I choose a blonde beauty? Why is it a black-haired one?

I'm not familiar with the other actors in the play, but they are all soy sauce roles. What's more, as long as there is a leading actor in this film.

Overall, this is a Hollywood production that represents 80 years of advanced level.

Looking at the scene at the end of the film, the foreshadowing of the sequel is too obvious. It seems that Spielberg likes making serial films?

    Marvel at Spielberg's ability to make the picture so exquisite in the era of lack of computer special effects. The story of the film is very strong, and the action and language are very humorous. As a Jew, Spielberg always portrays the Nazis awkwardly and ridiculously in his films, and also brings out the wit and bravery of the protagonist Indiana Jones. After watching this movie, I discovered that many similar themes afterwards always imitate Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark quotes

  • Indiana: [Indy meets Belloq in a crowded bar] Belloq.

    Belloq: Good afternoon, Dr. Jones.

    Indiana: I oughta kill you right now.

    Belloq: Not a very private place for a murder.

    Indiana: Well, these guys don't care if we kill each other. They're not going to interfere in our business.

    Belloq: It was not I who brought the girl into this business. Please, sit down before you fall down. We can at least behave like civilized people.

    [Indy sits down while the monkey crawls off his shoulder]

    Belloq: I see your taste in friends remains consistent. How odd that it should end this way for us, after so many stimulating encounters. I almost regret it. Where shall I find a new adversary so close to my own level?

    Indiana: Try the local sewer.

    Belloq: You and I are very much alike. Archaeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the purer faith. Out methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me, to push you out of the light.

    Indiana: Now you're getting nasty.

    Belloq: You know it's true. How nice. Look at this.

    [holds out a pocket watch]

    Belloq: It's worthless. Ten dollars from a vendor in the street. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless... like the Ark. Men will kill for it. Men like you and me.

    Indiana: What about your boss, der Fuhrer? I thought he was waiting to take possession.

    Belloq: All in good time. When I am finished with it. Jones, do you realize what the Ark is? It's a transmitter. It's a radio for speaking to God. And it's within my reach.

    Indiana: You want to talk to God? Let's go see him together. I've got nothing better to do.

    [prepares to fight Belloq, but Belloq's men train guns on him, and a crowd of children hurries in to escort him away]

    Belloq: Next time, Dr. Jones, it'll take more than children to save you.

  • Sallah: [catches date and points to dead monkey] Bad dates.
