    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    ★★★★

    Went in with low expectations given the Cannes reviews and 4's awfulness, but I had a great time. Despite time travel being an annoying plot device and a slight overreliance on CGI in chase scenes that go on for too long, it's still loads better than aliens and swinging with CGI monkeys.

    Way better than tech biopics have any need to be, but script still feels a little rushed and thematically undercooked.

    ★★★½

    Well directed and works great as a heist/thriller genre piece, but its characters are underwritten and one dimensional

    ★★★★

    Masterfully constructed genre elements but thematically and narratively underdeveloped
