Jurassic World Dominion (2022)

Jurassic World Dominion (2022). Jurassic World Dominion: Directed by Colin Trevorrow. With Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Laura Dern, Sam Neill. Four years after the destruction of Isla Nublar, dinosaurs now live–and hunt–alongside humans all over the world. This fragile balance will reshape the future and determine, once and for all, whether human beings are to remain the apex predators on a planet they now share with history's most fearsome creatures in a new Era.

“I will say this for Colin Trevorrow: unlike other Hollywood writers/directors, who seem to be actively spiteful towards the classic sagas they are writing sequels to, when Trevorrow says he is a fan of Jurassic Park, I believe him.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThatu0026#39;s why Jurassic World Dominion feels, for good and for ill, like the worldu0026#39;s most expensive fan film, cramming in nearly every dinosaur known to man and every character, meme and in-joke from the previous five movies (button up your shirt, Malcom! Get your hat, Grant! Oh look, Nedryu0026#39;s old Barbasol can!).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m betting that if the great Pete Postlethwaite had not passed away we would have gotten Roland Tembo rappelling from a helicopter to shoot an Oviraptor in the face.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie is at least twenty minutes too long – Hollywood seems incapable to make a non-bloated blockbuster today, even Bond movies have the running time of The Thin Red Line – and it doesnu0026#39;t have a shred of the wit and intelligence of my beloved first Jurassic Park, but I did like a few set-pieces (the Therizinosaurus, the frozen lake…) and itu0026#39;s always nice to see the awesome Sam Neill back, so I guess the fan bait worked to an extent.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e6/10.”
