‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ Review – One of Us
Is this final adventure worth seeing on the big screen? Find out in the One of Us crew’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny review.
One last time to strap on the whip and put on the hat…here we go. Certainly, the last Indiana Jones outing did not exactly meet with the world’s universal pleasure, and Harrison Ford has been pushing ever since to get one more go-round. It’s still a little baffling it took this long (the man is 80). Spielberg is no longer directing and Lucas no longer writing, but The Dial of Destiny is in the can.
This time around, it’s 1969, Jones is about to retire from his teaching job that no one seems to care about anymore. Man has just landed on the moon, and looking backward in exploration isn’t something the young folks care about anymore. But then, a figure from his past, his long-estranged god-daughter Helena Shaw (Phoebe Waller-Bridge), shows up to ultimately steal from him one-half of an ancient relic he’s been keeping hidden for decades, Archimedes’ Dial. Her father believed it held the power to exploit fissures in time, so, of course, there are Nazis after it. In this case, Jürgen Voller (Mads Mikkelsen), an Operation Paperclip former Nazi, wants to find both halves and go back to change the course of WWII.
Well, no amount of years or mileage is gonna keep Indy from trying to stop Nazis, and he’s off on another rip-roaring adventure, only this time with considerably more deep-fake to keep Ford from dying while playing the part.
