- Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Pity those involved in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny cannot use said dial to turn back time and have us forget the horror that was this film.
- David “DC” Bolling @ Film Yap
- Excerpt: You can feel Spielberg’s absence, but I’ll credit James Mangold for recapturing the spirit of the original three in its action and Ford’s performance in a send-off I can respect.
- Matt Brown @ Screen Anarchy
- Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReviews.com
- Excerpt: Harrison Ford as the archeologist icon has a grizzled, grumpy sort of melancholy that refuses pity, self or other, for a failing body and life. It is the saving grace of a film that at times falls into a simulacrum of what the franchise should deliver.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: a fitting tribute to both Harrison Ford and his favorite character, a perfect ending which embraces its beginnings while delivering one expertly mounted action sequence after another yet gracefully acknowledges the age of its hero.
- Herman Dhaliwal @ Cinema Sanctum
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: The fifth installment offers a thrilling adventure but also finds time to add some emotional heft.
- Benjamin Kramer @ The Voracious Filmgoer
- Victoria Luxford @ City AM
- Sarah Marrs @ LaineyGossip.com
- Excerpt: There was a moment in the 9th century when a bunch of Italians dug up a dead pope and put him on trial. That’s what Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny feels like, a cadaver being propped up and shouted at for two and a half hours.
- Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
- Excerpt: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a fun treasure-hunting adventure movie that takes the franchise back to its Nazi-fighting roots. I know this is supposed to be Indy’s final adventure, but I’m sure they can find a way to do more.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: Though a grizzled Harrison Ford is game as cinema’s most iconic aging archaeologist, ‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ can’t rise to the occasion, delivering a final farewell to the character that fails to move the dial, much less justify yet another unnecessary curtain call. Might be worse than ‘Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’, but for different reasons.
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Christopher Reed @ Film Festival Today
- Excerpt: It’s a good place to end. I think we can let Indy go now.
- [New] | Diego Salgado @ SoFilm [Spanish]
- Serena Seghedoni @ Loud and Clear Reviews
- Excerpt: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is not without flaws, but it’s also a journey worth taking: if you’re a fan of the franchise, you won’t be disappointed.
- Catherine Springer @ CathsFilmForum.com
- Josh Thayer @ The Forgetful Film Critic
- Excerpt: A few too many action sequences and some ill-considered CGI aside, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a fitting and satisfying way to close out his adventures as one of the most iconic characters in movie history.
