Indiana Jones is swinging back into theaters

Hello everybody, and welcome to my non spoiler review of Indiana Jones

and the Dial of Destiny,

I am on the road, which is why you see this hotel room backdrop

and why I might be a little quieter

and a little more subdued than usual.

I mentioned this is a non spoiler review

which means I won't be giving away any information that hasn't already expressly been revealed in promotional material

but I did want to address one thing

which is that there are so many leaks that are out there about this film

and I don't really engage in things like leaks too much.

But now that I've seen the movie

I can say that a huge number of those leaks are

laughably inaccurate.

So, if you are basing your decision on whether or not to see this movie

based off of quote unquote leaked insider information

a lot of it could not be further off base

particularly stuff that's been out there for a while now,

Don't make your decision based on that info.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is directed by James Mangold

taking over for the first time in this franchise for director Steven Spielberg

and the film is written by Jez Butterworth and John Henry Butterworth

the co writers of Ford v Ferrari and Edge of Tomorrow

as well as writer David Koepp

who wrote the screenplay for Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

and James Mangold himself.

Harrison Ford takes his last turn as Indiana Jones

now facing retirement

at the dawn of the space age.

Things change for Indy

though, when his goddaughter Helena Shaw

played by Phoebe Waller Bridge

enlists him in a search for an ancient artifact capable

as artifacts in these movies are

of channeling great power that could change the world,

Also seeking the artifact is former Nazi scientist Jürgen Wöhler

played by Mads Mikkelsen

who chases Jones across the globe with an eye on using the artifact to perform unspeakable evil,

Indiana Jones and megalomaniacal Nazis.

Name a more iconic duo.

For those of us who lived through the Crystal Skulls Wars

the idea at this point of a new Indiana Jones film is as anxiety inducing as it is thrill inducing.

And so the big question leading up to this movie is

is it any better than the last Indiana Jones movie?

Well, I'm happy to report that

I think that, Dial of Destiny is easily

better than every part of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

No qualifications.

As far as I'm concerned

this is the superior movie and it's not even a contest.

The flip side of that

though, is, does it compare to the original trilogy of Indiana Jones films?

And again, I think the answer here is easily no.

If your hope was that we would get a film that would deliver on the same level as those original movies

that is a legacy that is now thirty five years

almost in the rear view mirror.

and will not be coming back.

That's not to say that this movie doesn't have glimmers of Indiana Jones at its best

and it's a movie that's very much concerned with legacy

both personal, and historical,

And it delivers on that

through emotional moments for those who have followed Indy through the decades

enough to keep this film from being an entirely superfluous enterprise.

This will never be one of my favorite Indiana Jones films

but it will forever contain some of my favorite Indiana Jones moments.

Harrison Ford obviously cares about this character

and does not deliver the kind of dry

sleepwalking performance that sometimes made its way into Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,

This both is and isn't the same Indiana Jones that we have grown to love over the past several decades

and it shouldn't be the same character

especially because it's been so long since we've seen him,

I think, perhaps, the movie edges toward making him a bit too glum

but at the same time,

That depth of emotion is where the audience also gets some of its most emotional moments,

Phoebe Waller Bridge is strong as Helena.

She is far from the usurper that she's been made out to be.

She's an ally, a foil

another sharp mind to both challenge and assist Jones.

In other words, the kind of companion that works in a movie like this,

A young actor named Ethan Isidore is also in the mix

as a young kid named Teddy

who rounds out the trio.

Unfortunately, this is not another short round situation because this character never really catches on

and I think that the movie would have been the same or perhaps even better had he not been included,

I get why you have a character like this to kind of harken back to the legacy of Indiana Jones

but it doesn't really work out in this scenario.

The one thing this movie has

which Crystal Skull didn't really have in many places

is the feel of an Indiana Jones movie.

And it is odd, that of the two post trilogy Indiana Jones films

that James Mangold and not Steven Spielberg is the one who made films that feel the most like the originals,

But, you know, that's just where we are.

Water displacement.

Get in the pool!

The movie has another banger score from John Williams

which, of course, helps to drive things home

and a lot of those action scenes that crackle with that almost cartoonish Looney Tunes energy that the films do so well,

Not cartoonish in the sense of swinging through the vines with the monkeys

but that idea of like Bugs Bunny

and you never quite know when somebody's gonna get a,

piece of wood to the face or whatever

this movie does that very well.

I do miss some of the practical effects of the previous films

but digital technology has advanced and Harrison Ford's age has as well

so you're not going to be quite as down and dirty with these action scenes as you used to be.

It doesn't really go overboard too much.

One thing I'm still not on board with

though, is the de aging technology that's used in the film's extended prologue

which sets the stage for the rest of the movie.

Specific shots look good

but it still doesn't work in motion for me

and I don't know if it ever will.

Computers just haven't figured out the subtleties of how a human face moves,.

Still, though, I did like this prologue

which is set many years in the past from where Indiana Jones is,

in this movie.

I just wish that they hadn't relied on that technology so much

or maybe they'd done the lighting a little bit different

so it's not as brightly lit,

I know that Disney loves this de aging technology

but we're just not at that threshold

as far as I'm concerned,

The movie is also two and a half hours long

which seems to be the standard now for most big blockbusters

and it easily could have been two

which would have tightened the story up

and also cut the movie's budget.

I think that a great two hour movie can be just as satisfying as a bloated one hundred and fifty minute movie

and it's,

It's not like audiences are judging their satisfaction by the minute,

I don't really understand why studios keep making almost every one of their event films this long

especially when only about a quarter of them actually need to be.

The plot takes some twists and turns that I really enjoyed

despite a second act bloat with probably one action set piece too many

and it did surprise me several times in ways that I'd forgotten these movies can do,

Suffice it to say, that the perils of seeking mystical and vast power

remain ever present and unpredictable

in this franchise,

Is this a movie that delivers big enough on the hype of being the last ever Indiana Jones adventure?

Or, does it at least deliver on the level of having the character

literally ride off into the sunset?

at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

I don't necessarily think that it does

but it also doesn't put a stain on Indiana Jones's legacy or leave a bad taste in your mouth.

I'm actually very glad that this is Ford's last Indiana Jones film

and not Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

because I think this one hues much more closely to what has made the franchise great in years past,

It does deliver effective action

humor, and genuine emotion

albeit in smaller doses than the original films.

Even the great Indiana Jones

it seems, can't outrun the inevitable boulder of diminishing returns,

But, I didn't think that Dial of Destiny was a bad film either

nor one that I had many major issues with

and I think that the word on the street,

is kind of negative on this film because of the big Cannes premiere and the reviews that came out around it

which, when you look into it

weren't really negative so much as kind of in the middle

mediocre, but because of the binary

fresh, rotten system that most reviews go through now on Rotten Tomatoes

that nuance is hard to express.

And it's this loss of nuance

that has led me to roll out a new tool

for both me as a critic and for you as an audience,

For a long time, I've resisted the concept of a scoring system on the show because

I feel like it kind of diminishes my thoughts of the movie to some kind of a numerical grade,

Instead, I have now developed a sliding scale

as far as what I feel about a movie

and how I'm going to recommend it to you as an audience.

And this is the scale and how it's going to work.

At the top of the scale is a rating I call See It Now

which would be movies that I recommend unreservedly.

Under that is a tier called It's Good

meaning a recommendation

but probably not a glowing one.

Then we have one right in the middle called It's Fine

for movies that I feel are either mixed bags

or maybe just not that remarkable

either positive or negative,

Then, we have not a fan for movies that I didn't like or that are perhaps just not for me.

And finally, stay away

my lowest ranking, reserved only for movies that I wouldn't recommend that you see under any circumstances.

So where does Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny fall?

Well, my first impressions have me saying that

It's good.

It's not a transcendent viewing experience

but it has enough highs

and lacks enough lows

for me to recommend that you see it.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny may not be the final indie film of your dreams

but I can assure you it is also not the final indie film of your nightmares.

So, those are my thoughts on Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,

Are you looking forward to the movie?

What do you think of my new sliding scale

when it comes to ratings?
