Reviewed by BA_Harrison 5 / 10 Preposterousaurus Rex.įor decades, movie dinosaurs were realised either by some form of puppetry or stop motion animation. A turgid, lazy film, easily one of the worst of the year. And if you didn't already know, if you've seen the trailer, you've seen Goldblum's appearance. It's a crying shame that the film goes for the lazy route and resorts to nothing but the cast running away from clouds of smoke and panicking dinosaurs. But one couldn't help but hark back to 2008's 'Taken' where we see Neeson compelling his next victim to bid for his daughter.

The film has a gothic element to it toward the final act, when we meet Jones and his prehistoric auction. Pratt looks bored on the verge of saying 'Am I the biggest star in the world yet?', and Howard is resorted to nothing more than a bolshy babysitter for the children in the film. Yes, the efects are amazing, and the opening scene is decidedly quite effective, but when we get to the charachters proper, you can see the lack chemistry that was so important in the last chapter. It just takes everything that worked with JW, and extracted it and added elements that just made the film almost unbearable to endure. But no, this has to be one of the most disappointing films not just of this summer, but of any summer since that magical one of 1993. And why shouldn't they have been? Here we have a great director, the chemistry between Pratt and Howard made JW much more than just a reboot to a much loved masterpiece. So despite the maundering trailers, the poor one sheets, and an air of excitement that seemed as sparse as when JP3 was released, my expectations were pretty high for this. It somehow caught some of the magic that was so crucial to the ground breaking first movie. I was so happy with Jurassic World when released in 2015.

They soon encounter terrifying new breeds of dinosaurs, whist uncovering a conspiracy that threatens the entire planet. Three years after the destruction of the Jurassic World theme park, Owen Grady and Claire Dearing return to the island of Isla Nublar to save the remaining dinosaurs from a volcano that's about to erupt.
