I love the opening 15 minutes. I also felt genuinely emotional during the scenes where Indy talks about his dead son and later when he said he would rather stay in the past. Ford is so good. If only the rest of the movie had been of the quality of those scenes
Saw it the other day. Thought it was decent, and many scenes were paying homage to the "Indiana Jones" history. I did notice that the age regression technology has gotten much better.
It is all about time travel, which is why the Nazi theme worked so well. I saw it the other day and thought it was done well. I mean, it's an Indiana Jones movie, so it sort of wore me out! LOL but it was better than average, I thought. And I loved the actors.
Many( most) reviewers are totally trashing this movie and pointing out how the franchise was sacrificed on the altar of wokeness and Disney crapped the bed monumentally. Rotten Tomatoes gave it a fairly positive review which leaves no doubt that they've sold out to the big movie studios.

Many such reviews came out even before the movie was released. Even the movies are now so political that it's a team sport. People are bashing the movie because that's what their team does. Others are praising it because that's what their team does.
I am definitely not a fan of the direction Disney in general Kathleen Kennedy in particular have taken Lucasfilm. But quite a few of the "reviews" I have seen obviously hate the movie for political reasons, not artistic ones. I just don't understand that mentality.
I disagree with a lot of John Milius's politics. I love his movies. Same with John Carpenter. Or Kubrick. Or probably most Hollywood directors. If I had to agree with a director's politics to enjoy the movie, I probably wouldn't watch any movies.

As mentioned, a lot of the negative reviews came out before the movie was even released. Oftentimes, if the reaction is that negative, the movie goes back to the cutting room and is retooled. That didn't happen here so I'm guessing the producers (Spielberg and Lucas were two of them) just took them for what they were and ignored them.
I think it's partly what people "think" the movie should be or contain and when it doesn't meet their fantasy they get upset.
I know this will be a grenade going off in a roomful of dynamite but you saw that in Game of Thrones. People ignored the undercurrents and expected a happily ever after. I could see by halfway through about Season 2 that Daeneyras was going to end up dead.

What's "woke" about this? The concept that Nazis are bad guys?
