Raiders Of The Lost Ark: the IMAX difference

Ali

29th September 2012

Earlier this week I went to the IMAX to see Raiders Of The Lost Ark, officially one of the best films ever made on the biggest screen in the UK. Did you know it's really good? Because it is. What's more, the MAMMOTH screen makes even the most innocuous elements of the film seem gigantic. Let me try and visualise what I mean.

The rolling boulder


The Nazi monkey


The snake in the Well Of Souls


The ark


The fly on Belloq's face


Naturally, it was quite difficult to watch the film as all the women in the audience were fudding themselves silly at the sight of a 20 metre high Harrison Ford with his shirt off. Okay, that was just me.
