Read MoreIndiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny hasn’t received quite the warm welcome many expected. After Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was lambasted by fans, some would say undeservedly, James Mangold (Logan, Walk the Line) stepped into the director’s chair to give Indy one final adventure.
