Review - Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny


Set in 1969, Archaeologist Indiana Jones races against time to retrieve a legendary artifact that can change the course of history. Indiana Jones and his estranged goddaughter, Helena, who are trying to locate a powerful artifact before Jürgen Voller, a Nazi-turned-NASA scientist who plans to use it to alter the outcome of World War II. 

Directed by James Mangold and Distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures within estimated overall budget $295–300 million. Production with 154 minutes long for runtime. Featuring Harrison Ford, John Rhys-Davies, and Karen Allen reprising their roles as Indiana Jones, Sallah, and Marion Ravenwood, respectively, new cast members include Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Antonio Banderas, Toby Jones, Boyd Holbrook, Ethann Isidore, and Mads Mikkelsen. 

 

I found so much negativity ahead of the release considering the role of a certain female support character at this film. Then lots of stories about early reviews being bad to mediocre at best. We went to see it today and honestly, I liked it.. quite a lot! This isn't a story about replacing Indiana Jones with a female character. This is a really good final film and a worthy send off for our beloved adventurer Indy's. This is solid farewell to an icon that exist over 40 years. Harrison Ford did his best to covered up the lack of aspects. Director James Mangold successfully puts the series to bed and tucks it in nicely while rounding off any remaining edges. 



The problem I had on this film it is falls short of being a masterpiece as a finale. It ends up being a forgettable farewell to a character and franchise. Some moments provide fun and excitement, but some feel boring. But personally speaking, I found myself pleasantly entertained by it as the last hat's from Indy's.
