Denial of Destiny
1 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
About two minutes into the movie a younger Indiana Jones stands to face death (the great unknown mystery) from the gallows in a Nazi infected castle. It makes you hold your breath for about two seconds then after that it's like watching a computer game.

The art of film that made the first three movies such a thrill and joy to watch it lost somewhere in the endless use of CGI as well as the story line.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny had all the right element to make him go out on a high. Time travel as the Macguffin is a great idea, but is however lost in confusion. All characters lack personality and vision. They are all over the place as well as our heroes who is basically being rushed from one scene to another by plane, car, boat, train and tuk-tuk's.

And my biggest question of all: what happens to Indy's murder charges?

I'll give it one star for the music. Helena's Theme is nothing but amazing.

Indiana rode into the sunset with his dad, Sallah and Marcus Brody in 1989. That's my denial of destiny!
