It's been almost 20 years since he last wore the crumpled fedora, but Harrison Ford was not suffering from any last-minute nerves in the lead up to the world premiere of Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in Cannes.

"Having seen the finished product, I feel very confident,'' he told The Daily Telegraph this week.

"Now as to whether the audience will find something that I didn't see .. well, that's possible. But I have the feeling we're in pretty good shape.''

While the film isn't scheduled to be publicly seen until Monday Sydney time, at a red carpet premiere attended by Ford, Steven Spielberg, Cate Blanchett and Shia LaBeouf, reviews of the film began cropping up on the Internet late last week, sparking a plea by Paramount Pictures and director Steven Spielberg for reviewers to not spoil key plot points of the franchise's fourth instalment.

So far, the reviews have been mixed. One particularly damning critique on aintitcoolnews.com, said: "This is the Indiana Movie that you were dreading.''

Another, however, praised the film for action sequences that hark back to the franchise's origins in 1981.

Sydney audiences will be able to make up their minds for themselves when the film opens on May 22.
