With Dial of Destiny now playing in theaters, here's out list of Indiana Jones movies ranked -- including the latest entry.
‘s action franchise and offer a proper ranking. Put on your hat, grab your whip, and read at your own risk — here’s Indiana Jones, ranked from worst to best.I don’t know where to start with this bloated, wannabe epic. I went in with modest expectations after reading early reviews. I braced myself for James Mangold’s new approach to the franchise, taking the reins from Steven Spielberg. After watching the Star Wars series spiral out of control, my faith in Lucasfilm already hung by a thread.
That’s the problem with this entry — it lacks substance. Spielberg detests the alien angle, which stalls the film’s last third. However, he still loves Indy and delivers some well-executed action via a chase sequence set at Area 51 and another across a college campus. I also enjoy Shia LaBeouf as Mutt Williams, but his character hangs around without much to do.prequels as a sporadically fun return to a beloved franchise that entertains despite missing the mark by a few thousand feet.
Funny, unexpected, and ambitious, Temple of Doom is an absolute blast from start to finish. This could’ve been the best of the series with a bit more heart and soul, a stronger female lead, and a better MacGuffin.As I’ve gotten older, my appreciation for Last Crusade has increased. Maybe it’s the father in me, or perhaps I’m more enamored by human drama than nonstop action.
If I were to offer a few criticisms, Alison Doody doesn’t leave much of an impression as Indy’s love interest. She’s cast aside immediately after showing her true colors, before a perplexing last-second change brings her back to the light. Ultimately, the Last Knight/Holy Grail bit raises far too many questions.
