I went to see Raiders with my step-dad and just remember being utterly bowled over by it because it was such an assault on the senses – it was funny, it was incredibly violent and it was very exciting and tense – it had everything.

My favorite Indiana Jones movie has to be Raiders of the Lost Ark because of the drinking scene.

Raiders of the Lost Ark: Spielberg at his best. Ford at his best. Story at its best. And great, unfluffy heroine who can drink and shoot.

Yes, of course it's a fantasy film. Unless you believe that the Ark of the Covenant really does have the power to melt Nazis. All of the Indiana Jones films have their moments (well, except for the last one, maybe), but Raiders stands head and shoulders above the rest. Lawrence Kasdan's screenplay was much stronger than any of the sequels, the concept was fresher, and Harrison Ford actually seemed to be having a good time playing Indy.

It’s another game changer for me. I saw it when I was 12, I think. 11 or 12. I just remember saying to my brother, “I didn’t know movies could make me feel like this.” So it transported me. I believed in it. It was fun, it was funny, I was on the edge of my seat — everything about it. I remember saying that to him: “I didn’t know movies could make me feel like this.”

I appreciated action movies, but I always liked the action that was more like "Raiders of the Lost Ark" because it was less kung-fu. It felt like when you punched Harrison Ford, it really hurt.

Starting with Spielberg, the actor’s first choice is the action, adventure classic Raiders of the Lost Ark, starring Harrison Ford, Karen Allen and Alfred Molina, a film that Cumberbatch calls “my childhood favourite”.
