Cannot enter playmode; errors need to be fixed

I created the code just as it was decribed in the video but I cannot enter the playmode now. It all appears to be fine. What is wrong?

The error listed said: Assets/Scripts/PlayerMovement.ca(19,28): error:CS1525: Unexpected symbol 'moveVertical'.

Here is a look at my code: using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour {

private Animator playerAnimator;
private float moveHorizontal;
private float moveVertical; 
private Vector3 movement;

// Use this for initialization
void Start () {

}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
    moveHorizontal = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal")
    moveVertical = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical")

            movement = new Vector3 (moveHorizontal, 0.0f, moveVertical);
}

}

It looks like you missed the semi-colons at the end of the first two lines of Update().

That was exactly the problem. Thanks so much for the prompt response, Seth! Very much appreciated :)
