First impressions of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny are very positive. classic Indiana Jones even without Spielberg, easily better than Crystal Skull (i try not to hate but it is objectively the worst of the series), possibly on par with Temple of Doom.

Clever in its cameos and mostly subtle with its references, Indy 5 incorporates elements from previous films in a natural way, while primarily telling its own story. Haters will undoubtedly point out appearances of old friends that we have never heard of before, to which I would counterpoint with the fact that each film is its own complete story, all contained in the life of Henry Jones Jr. There are years between each film, sometimes decades, and we cannot expect to know everyone Indy knows or meet everyone he meets.

James Mangold and his crew do a masterful job at recreating the simple concept of the Indiana Jones films: the grumpy professor goes on a globe-trotting adventure to find an ancient relic, only to find out that it actually works. Mangold sets the scene of an aging Indy who has been through some things since we last saw him, and he's about to go through a lot more.

I'll stop here to avoid spoilers, but my last note is that while I am a huge fan of Steven Spielberg, I think it was the right call to let Mangold take the helm, similar to how Lucas took his hands off of The Empire Strikes Back. Mangold treats the characters and the franchise with a great deal of respect, while making it his own.

And while it goes without saying, John Williams (final) score is magnificent as always. Bravo, Maestro.

This is a clip from the Merv Griffin Show. Evelyn Keyes had just written her autobiography Scarlett O'Hara's Younger Sister. She was married to John Huston and Artie Shaw and she lived with Mike Todd. Talk shows were so much more interesting back in the 1970s. The guests were always so interesting, intelligent, and entertaining.

New Releases: June 28, 2022

Bad Things Happen Here by Rebecca Barrow Luca Laine Thomas lives on a cursed island. To the outside world, Parris is an exclusive, idyllic escape accessible only to the one percent. There’s nothing idyllic about its history, though, scattered with the unsolved deaths of young women—deaths Parris society happily ignores to maintain its polished veneer. But Luca can’t ignore them.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny - an overlong, but fun ride....

Some context first, I didn't grow up with Indiana Jones so I don't have that nostalgic love for it that a lot of people do. So I am neither overly harsh, nor overly complimentary when it comes to Indiana Jones movies. I only really watched them when KOTC was about to come out and I decided to watch the trilogy. I really loved The Last Crusade. That one is my favorite because Ford and Connery were such a hilarious father and son couple. Raiders is epic and 2nd on my list, though the climax still feels awfully convenient. I was not a huge Temple of Doom fan, because I am not a fan of the cultural caricatures depicted in the film, nor did I like Willie as a character, who basically screamed her way through the film. On rewatches I have enjoyed the film more. I enjoyed KOTC when it came out and I still do. I didn't have a problem with Shia/Mutt, nor with the fact that there were aliens in the film. So, given that context, take my opinion as you want. I quite enjoyed Dial of Destiny. Its not as good as Raiders of TLC. I think it might be my 3rd fav Indiana Jones movie though.

What I like about the film is that it went there. It didn't retreat to safety of the aliens criticism of KOTC, and it arguably went far more batshit crazy in the last act. I honestly quite liked that. I enjoyed the blending of scientific concept with sci-fi and history. I also do think the humor works for the most part. Ford is in the zone throughout and PWB is a perfectly excellent co-lead. The action scenes are entertaining. The opening sequence set in the past is excellent. The deaging work done with Indy is spectacular and you only really notice something is off if you really focus on it. The tuk tuk chase is also a lot of fun, as is the underwater sequence. Mads Mikkelsen is also reliably excellent as the Nazi villain. I also feel that the film on a nice uplifting note with a sweet callback to Raiders.

When it comes to issues, the primary issue is that it is a bit overlong and it doesn't pack the emotional punch that it probably should have. I feel they could have explored the emotional issues Indy is dealing with a bit more as well as developed the growing bond between Indy and Helena. At times, it does feel the plot is an excuse to go from one action set piece to another and the way they find things, like Archimedes' tomb, seems pretty easy, although I suppose the same could be said in previous films too. Without giving away spoilers, I do feel like that the ending was reshot and changed. There is an abrupt cut in the climax, which feels like the result of a reshoot.

When it comes to James Mangold's filmogboraphy, this isn't as good as say Ford v Ferrari or Logan, but it still a solid venture. The performances are top notch, particularly from Harrison Ford, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Mad Mikkelsen. It was nice to see a few nostalgic returns from John Rhys-Davies and Karen Allen. Boyd Holbrook as the villain henchman is solid. Overall I would say the movie is pretty good. I enjoyed it. A 7.5/10.
