It's a shame, too, because the structure of the prologue is solid.
We’re watching Indiana Jones at the end of World War II, but the effects are distracting instead of enhancing. It sets up a standard of over-used effects that are the film’s greatest flaw.
He doesn't move or even sound quite right. It’s the first but not the last time in “The Dial of Destiny” in which it feels like you can’t really get your hands on what you’re watching. Jones looks normal, of course, but Ford here is an uncanny valley occupant, a figure of de-aged CGI that never looks quite human. The unsettling mix of good and bad starts in the first sequence, a flashback to the final days of World War II that features Indy ( Harrison Ford) and a colleague named Basil Shaw ( Toby Jones) trying to reclaim some of the historical artifacts being stolen by the fleeing Nazis.
