Indy 5

It's not a question of whether it belongs but rather whether it belongs in the WP:LEAD. The content you want included is already in the body, where it belongs. We don't include it in the lead because what was noteworthy about the film was its lack of success: it wasn't a huge critical hit in the first place, and the consensus in the press is that the movie is more known for being one of the most expensive films ever made, but being the worst-performing and worst received Indy movie. That is all the most noteworthy because this will be Ford's last Indy film and the expectations were high. Including your content in the lead is misleading as it reads like spin. Indy 5 is being referred to as one of the biggest box office misfires in history, especially disappointing given the amazing success of the past entries. It's like a prized undefeated boxer getting KOed in the first round of his final fight!
