Indiana comes out of retirement when his god daughter pulls him into a search for the two parts of a device created by Archimedes. This after an extended flashback of Indy stealing the first part from under the nose of his Nazi nemesis. This Nazi returns in the present (i.e. 1969) to get this piece back and find the second piece. Indy tries to get there first, thereby helping the Nazi get all the pieces. This plot summary is both total spoiler, and I could have written it before seeing the movie (maybe I had the dial...). As number five in the franchise, the story and acting feels like a No. 5. It is predictable, and at this point, trope. Maybe it is me tiring of franchise and looking for something new, but the wow and pizzaz is definitely missing. It is a solid, if uninspired, action adventure.
3 stars (out of 5)
