Indiana Jones 5 Disappoints as an Entry Point for Series Newcomers (by juliadelbel)
I’m very familiar with the cycle of nostalgia; the way pop culture has a tendency to cycle through trends every 20-30 years and bring back media properties from that time to appeal to old fans. I’ve also been going to the movies for most of my life, so I’ve seen the rise of remakes and the discussions of how well they thread the needle of playing to nostalgic longtime fans while trying to bring newcomers on board.
The best things I can say about this film was that it held my attention and I enjoyed Harrison Ford’s performance, though it didn’t make me think “iconic role,” and I got the sense that he probably wasn’t as sharp in the part as he probably was in the previous installments. But unfortunately, there weren’t any highlights or big moments to note other than maybe the Nazi-punching.
The movie explains what the audience needs to know in order to follow the plot. However, it doesn’t give those who are new to Indiana Jones a reason to care about stuff that it really seems we should care about in order to be truly invested in the movie’s story.
