Part 6/10:
Character and Plot Concerns
A recurring point of criticism revolves around the film’s portrayal of Indiana Jones himself. Critics and fans alike have expressed concern that the new film treats Indiana as a diminished, broken character, rather than as the daring hero they admired. The inclusion of Waller-Bridge's character, supposedly Jones’s daughter, received particular scrutiny. Audiences felt she exuded an irritating, overly modern persona, one that seemed to overshadow traditional heroism.
