I too was expecting garbage because of the terrible reviews from critics and all the set leaks but I thoroughly enjoyed it. This is coming from someone who thought the Disney Star Wars were awful and hasn't been happy with Lucasfilms output since being owned by Disney.

Harrison Ford will always be my favorite actor. He never ceases to make me smile and his final turn as Indy was no exception. Phoebe Waller-Bridge wasn't nearly as terrible as the leaks made her out to be and frankly her character is supposed to be unlikeable a good part of the movie. I loved the opening scene that takes place in the 40s as well. Definitely better than Crystal Skull but if you expected it to be as good as the original 3 you're a putz. Enjoy it for what it is. Harrison Ford won't be around much longer and we likely won't ever get to see him in another action role.

This is cool for the old footage and interviews but it glosses things over. Cannot stand the musical reenactments. For example it explains Chuck got arrested in his late teens because a guy pulled over to help him with a broken down car but when Chuck approached him it says the guy ran off because he got scared when in actuality he robbed the guy at gunpoint with a broken gun. His son actually mentions this in passing later on. Hail Hail Rock N Roll is a much better film.

This movie is so beyond ridiculous and homogenizes all our history together that it just works, for me anyway. The kind of beyond stupid movie you don't need to think when you watch and I mean that as a compliment. Good stuff.
