“Indiana Jones” is a mythical saga that made its way to adventure cinema. He had four films under the direction of Steven Spielberg, but now he will release a fifth installment directed by James Mangold.

Critics destroyed the film: why?
- The Hollywood Reporter: “A sweet burst of pure nostalgia in the final scene, a welcome comeback foreshadowed with a couple of visual clues early on. But part of what tarnishes the enjoyment of this final chapter is how blatantly fake much of it seems.”
- Empire: “For this first installment without Steven Spielberg, all the hallmarks of the series are there as expected, carefully preserved as archaeological treasures. A fitting farewell to cinema’s favorite grave robber.”
- Daily Telegraph: “Harrison Ford gives it his all, but — while the original three movies were gripping — ‘Indiana Jones 5’ lacks spark. The action is generic and clumsily staged.”
