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".

The de-aging/deep fake work on Ford was incredibly well-done (oddly, if anyone suffered from uncanny valley-dom, it was Mads). And did I mention that Phoebe was pretty great? She pulled off what Shia wasn't able to in "Crystal Skull" in terms of going toe-to-toe with HF.
