"Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" Better than 2 and 4 (which isn't saying much), PWB was great (even if this felt like her audition reel to take over "Tomb Raider"), and the fan service didn't feel overdone. But...
The Indiana Jones formula wears thin, i.e. MacGuffin + mumbo-jumbo exposition + tepid interpersonal drama to pace between looooong set pieces (several of which, this time, were set in the dark which raises questions about the FX work). Maybe I'm just action-ed out but very little felt "thrilling".
