Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny, like the previous parts, has its share of adventure, mysteries of history and some very entertaining action scenes. The film starts on a rocking note and the subsequent scenes also keep the interest going. The climax is unexpected. However, it’s too long at 156 minutes. A few developments are silly. The climax is exciting on paper but doesn’t translate as intended on celluloid. Harrison Ford, however, is energetic as ever. It’s a pleasure to see him give such an energetic performance at this age. Phoebe Waller-Bridge puts up a confident act. Mads Mikkelsen is fine as the villain. Antonio Banderas is wasted. Ethann Isidore (Teddy) is lovely though his character is unconvincing. Toby Jones (Basil Shaw) is fine in a small role. All in all, Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny is a decent one-time watch. Those who are fans of the series will surely lap it up.

My rating - *** out of 5!
