A celebrated archaeologist is recruited by the government to find the legendary Ark of the Covenant. As he searches for the ancient artifact, he faces a race against the Nazi regime, with danger and adventure at every turn.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you’re in the mood for a fast-moving adventure with memorable action, humor, and a charismatic hero; Not for you if dated action or a straightforward story are dealbreakers.
