James Mangold’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny brings Indy’s final adventure home to the Vudu video store.
If you’ve waited to experience Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny in the comfort of your own home, now’s your chance! The James Mangold-directed adventure is now available digitally through Vudu, the American digital video store and streaming service owned by Fandango Media. The film will be available to watch on the Vudu platform in SD, HD, and UHD for $19.99.
When Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, the film met with mediocre reviews. Knowing Indy’s latest odyssey would be compared to its predecessors, Mangold spoke with Variety about the film’s reception, saying, “When you’re in franchise land, it’s very hard for critical thinkers…to overlook what I’m sure their editors want, which is this business prism of how does it rate to the other ones?…I always thought if I were second or third best to one of the greatest films of all time, I’d be good. I mean, it all vaporizes later. Either the movie will live or it won’t.”
For what it’s worth, I really enjoyed Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. I experienced the film with a rowdy crowd that hooted and hollered at every harrowing moment and near-death escape from certain doom. Adventure movies are in short supply nowadays, and seeing Ford on the big screen again with his trusty whip and creaking bones did my heart good that day. I’m excited to watch the movie again, and it’s still better than Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny earned $380.9M worldwide and stands to make even more after its digital Vudu release.
