  Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny 2023

  ★★★ Watched 27 Jul 2023

  The first Indy movie ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ is my favorite film ever. So there was no way this would live up to my expectations. That’s being said.. on first viewing it was fine. It’s entertaining enough, but it doesn’t have rewatch value like the original trilogy. It felt like if you asked A.I. to write an Indiana Jones script.
     Honestly the best part of the whole production is the beautiful poster by Tony Stella. The opening flashback…

  Babylon 2022

But Toby McGuire’s scene was the most interesting part of the…

  I can’t say this was a bad movie.. but it was disappointing. A24 makes much better stuff than this. The first third of the film was fun and I was interested to see where it went. Then I felt it didn’t go anywhere at all. It was the most basic thrasher film you could make. 
     The point was to make a 70s/80s style horror movie and they did that well, but there isn’t anything new added to it, that…
