Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny manages to whip up some of that magical Indy adventure, not to mention a helping of giddy nostalgia. The good news is that Harrison Ford is as loveably grumbly as ever and can still pull off a fedora like no one’s business. And it really is Ford who saves the day here, as the plot itself is a rather mixed bag of sci-fi mystery and intrigue. Things start smashingly enough though, thanks to an action-packed trip to the past that throws the audience headfirst into a classic Indy action scenario. The “de-aging” techniques used on Ford are actually pretty remarkable, giving way to a wholly believable throwback sequence. Things then move to the film’s 1960s “present day” where the action continues with a stellar horse chase through New York’s subway stations. But, after one car chase too many, a slew of mostly forgettable characters, and a sure-to-be-divisive narrative twist, the movie all but loses its momentum – and some of its charm. That is to say it’s a ho-hum finish, one that feels overly cartoony at times. But, for her part, Phoebe Waller Bridge adds some nice energy to the proceedings, giving her character some real vigor opposite Indy’s subdued demeanor. But, it’s once again Ford’s pathos and sarcastic humour that keep things afloat. You really care for this character and can’t help but root for him - hard. And while this might not be the perfect send-off to one of cinema’s most iconic figures, it still manages to pack an emotional punch. Speaking of which, we see plenty of Nazi’s get punched – and hey, that’s always a plus!
