8/10
The worthy ending that the fourth installment made necessary
3 September 2023
Indiana Jones has always been over the top action adventures with some ancient magic sprinkled in and this movie doesn't break the mold.

The first three movies all had spectacular intros and this one makes a valiant attempt with a Nazi fight where a de-aged Harrison Ford almost looks real as a young man again.

After the introduction the movie falters and takes time to get into it's groove. There are unnecessarily many moving parts, many of which were not pertinent to the plot. But as we go along it gradually becomes more coherent and Phoebe Waller-Bridge becomes less annoying.

Harrison Ford seems more than able to keep up the pace and the fantasy plot elements were better than in any of the earlier movies.

In the end I was left with a tear in the corner of my eye and a smile as the Harrison Ford era of Indiana Jones movies is given a worthy conclusion.
