I loved this film. I like how they copied the Apple headquarters as Mr. Evils domain. Speaking of Mr. Evil, he highly resembled Tim Cook. Aside from the Apple love, the movie was full of adventure, a great story line cut from the headlines of today. Not sure why others didn't like this final instalment? The new and old casts blended smoothly and delivered a great finale. If you loved the past 5, you'll love this.
I’ve been a fan of this franchise for a long time I even read the books. The movie was very good I would watch this again also go team blue
I really dont understand all the hate. I loved this movie, it was amazing
So far I've only watched the Extended Edition, which the director has said is the version he intended to be released before the studio forced him to cut 14 minutes. I loved it, and while it did feel a little long, I felt the action, character moments, and nostalgia were nicely balanced. I'm curious to watch the theatrical release and see if that explains the more negative reviews this film received.
I enjoyed this movie e
It's not a popular opinion, but screw popular. I loved it. It's getting hammered by some people because that might get more likes. Or maybe some people hate fun. Or hate sequels. Or hate blockbusters. Or they're just dicks. If that describes you, then I'll save you some time - just f#@* off right now.
Premise - 18/20 - Finally...what happens when the created animals are let loose on the world?
Cast/characters - 18/20 - Both generations of leads are wonderful and DeWanda Wise was a wonderful addition. 2 pts off because the rich white guy was a weak character this time, and sometimes Bryce Dallas Howard is a little rigid again. "The movie relies too much on nostalgia"? Yes, it does. If you love the characters, what's wrong with seeing them again?
Story - 18/20 - Two main questions to be answered: can the existence of Maisie (and Blue's baby) hold answers to disease, and can dinosaurs and humans co-exist? This movie is taking some hits for having a weak story, but it's not meant for the art house. Does the story keep you engaged, and do you care what happens? Yes. The story works well for me. Two specific points: whether or not they created any new dinosaurs was immaterial. That wasn't the point of the movie. Second, the "evil corporation" bit is a little tired, but it's realistic. Chris Tucker's rule of finding out where the problems start -- follow the rich white guy. There's always a greedy individual/corporation at the heart of the world's issues.
Dialogue - 13/20 - The action was the draw, not the dialogue. It didn't distract, but it wasn't special.
World-building - 20/20 - The settings were wonderful, and this created world will never get old for me, even after 6 movies.
87/100 - 4.5/5 stars - What a wonderful ending to a storied franchise.
Not the best movie from the series but still enjoyable. Especially seeing the old and new generation together is nice.
Genuinely an enjoyable movie, I don't know why so many people disliked the movie. This is exactly what you would expect from a Jurrasic Park Movie, a thrilling adventure and I loved seeing the old cast. More fun tense moments with Apex predators and total fun time, for any Jurrasic Park fan you will enjoy it.
A proper nostalgic dinosaur ride.
Jurassic World Dominion may not have been the payoff to the trilogy that I expected, however the cast delivers and the movie offers dinosaur sized action. I was thoroughly entertained and the return of the older cast and homage to the original Jurassic Park was delightful.
In my opinion this is the best of the modern trilogy. It's not perfect, there are a few places where the choices made by people aren't 100% understandable but I think it has great action, tension and humour
Finally watched this movie. Although the concept is the same as always, the mix of old and new generation it’s just sentiment that makes it nice and fun to watch. There are some scenes that winks at previous movies, really liked that small detail.
I enjoyed this a lot. It was a lot better than what I was expecting. Definitely better than Jurassic Park 3 and more fun than the Jurassic World movies. It felt more like a Jurassic Park movie than a Jurassic World movie. It captured the same magic and innocence of the Spielberg movies. I'm glad that we didn't see the same old repeated again. Dinosaurs eating people. It felt different and fresh. I also loved the evil Tim Apple.

People here often tend to be a bit entitled that's why you see many bad reviews and comments.
It was a good movie, enjoyable and had a lot of good scenes. You most definitely will not get bored of of it.
A meeting of generations, catching references to previous films and a relatively fast-paced action filled with dinosaurs... For me it's enough, because what more could you want from an adventure movie? The series' culmination is a plus. So maybe see you in next 30 years dinosaurs? ;)
A fun rollercoaster. It could of been a bit shorter. I loved seeing the dinos from each movie come together one last time. The inclusion of the more accurate feathered dinosaurs was a highlight for me. As others have said, not the best in the series, but certainly not the worst.
It was an entertaining film with some moments that were thought provoking. Of course, this film is not a cinematic masterpiece, but it’s a work that kids and adults can both enjoy and have fun with.
I found it better than I expected, granted I have seen youtube video review titles saying that it was a disaster or so bad, (*I didn't watch the reviews) but still my expectations were low. while not the most complicated of plots still had enough elements to stop it dragging. however, it's formulaic because it's giant monsters in a confined space and of cause they cause havoc. having the old and new was nice as well as Owen interacting with blue again. Nice also to see a movie not bogged down in "political or social" agender where one how can I put it, group is made to look bad to push another more "popular group" to be seen as superior. everyone plays their part and acts naturally instead of some forced shoehorned ideology (which I'm getting tired of in TV and Cinema atm I want to be entertained and escapism from the everyday horror that is real life.) but I digress. the only thing I could really pull it up on is some sloppy editing where things are said but have no setup scene previous. like how did someone know something was there, or how something got its name maybe I blinked and missed them but I don't think so. I would be interested to see an extended edition. My feeling about this movie was really whoever wrote it, or at least the person in charge of what dinosaurs go in Obviously plays Ark Survival Evolved.. dam it felt like ark the movie. though realistic *having gone and googled it I feel the giganotosaurus doesn't feel big enough ok in ARK they are 3 times the size of a T-Rex and the one in the movie feels more like an allosaurus, At least from being an ARK player but anyway I did enjoy it and would watch it again.
Super fun. Actually much better than I expected. I really enjoyed the constant and almost grotesque original movie tropes/nods and the weird inclusion of modern memes. Raptor (or, what was it?) grappling with a motorbike like it was doing a trick was a magnificent touch.
I normally hate the idea of reboots or sequels of older works but I liked this. It was a decent end for this iteration of the series. With new knowledge of dinosaurs and advancement in technology this added a new experience. Seeing the original 3 was great addition. I also want to note the dialogue for the pilot was well done.
After four years we finally get to see „the end of the Jurassic era“. And yes, it could have been better but I found it still to be a very entertaining movie. The plot is definitely flawed but the characters are great and it was awesome to see the legacy cast again after so many years. Laura Dern and Sam Neill are just a brilliant pair. As a final part to the Jurassic World trilogy it works well enough but don‘t expect the most intelligent story. But I think nobody is going to see a Jurassic Park/World movie with the expectation of getting a deep and complex storyline anyway.
General suggestion for future makers of dinosaur flicks: just stick with the dinosaurs in a dinosaur movie. Nevertheless, aside from the main story arc, the sub-plots - especially with the orignial characters - where quite okay. My personal highlight, Jeff Goldblum. Enjoy it with a bucket of popcorn while ignoring the giant grasshoppers.
I watched at 2x and it was pretty good. I imagine it must have been a pain at twice that length.
I think it's a good film? Honestly, it left me a little confused (not about the plot, just what I thought of it). Certainly not exceptional and certainly not terrible either. Very much carried by the actors, the OGs especially, as the plot is paper thin. But yeah, a little too long and a surprising lack of death, once I thought about it afterwards, kinda made the stakes never really feel that high.
Funny how the whole world broke out in Dinosaurs when only a couple were let free in the last movie. Plus a lot of the dinosaurs on the loose weren’t species that were let go in the last movie.
It’s nice that there’s a raptor with feathers. Though, why ? A couple of dinosaurs were let loose and raptors suddenly look how they are supposed to ?
There’s a little too many heroes and it never felt like any were in danger. The movie needed more villains with guns to be eaten.
With that said it was nice to see the Jurassic Park characters team with the Jurassic World characters. Though all they really get to do is run away from dinosaurs together. While saying that they know each other’s work.
+1 for old but gold characters only. And in general - simple movie, a bit weaker than the previous parts. The final battle is boring and very short, not interesting and exciting
So... are accents in our DNA? How come a girl who spent 4 years with Claire and talks with the British accent?
I liked it. It was very entertaining and with all those moments bringing the first movie to this one. I found a couple of editing mistakes, but I think that is an ever present thing in action movies. I like to think this is the definitie ending for both trilogies.
I'm a bit torn on this one. The first half was just bad. Badly written, and needlessly long. The second half was better, even entertaining in some parts. But it's being carried by the old cast all the way.
So many cliches. I liked.
Seriously. What's wrong with you people...? Why is everyone soo angry these days? This is not the dumpster fire most are claiming it to be. Is it one of the lesser entries in the series? Sure, but it's got some fun stuff going for it. There are loads of entertaining sequences, it's got some neat ideas at play and there's plenty of fan service to satisfy. Even though y'all seem to be crying most about said fan service, but if they didn't put that stuff in there you would be whining that it wasn't there... There's no pleasing audiences sometimes.
To be honest, I was expecting a lot more from this film. I thought it would be fantastic, but it was a bit of a let down.
There were some good bits, but the overall story was weak, and I started to get bored after an hour or so.
Previous films have been better.
Not terrible, but not great
Did I expect more? Yes. Where there dinossaurs? Yes. Was it enjoyable? Yes.
:heart:x7
Definitely not as good as the other 2 Jurassic World movies. In fact, I felt like this one was more of an homage to the original Jurassic Park (1993).
Don't get me wrong - this was still a good movie and it was a lot of fun seeing the whole gang from both sets of movies all playing together.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
Didn’t enjoy this movie as much as the predecessors unfortunately. However I still recommend watching it
Probably the worst of the Jurassic films but I still enjoyed it for a couple of hours of mindless fun. Some good action scenes in the last hour.
Enjoyable movie, well worth a watch :thumbsup_tone1:
People are taking themselves and what they wanted this movie to be too seriously. I never anticipated a Spielbergian masterpiece back when it was announced, but the most vocal reception had me expecting a pile of dino droppings, so I was pleasantly surprised to watch something that had me grinning for the better part of its duration. At the end of the day, it can be taken for the best thing it could realistically have been—a fun throwback with well loved characters.
Also, there's giant fucking fire locusts raining down.
'Jurassic World Dominion' is far from perfect, if just about entertaining to watch... kinda.
I'm not fully convinced by it but I do think there's enough in there that's worth watching. There are too many characters, even main characters with the original trio and the newer duo both involved equally. With that said, I do like 'em. It's pleasant to see Sam Neill, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum, while Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are a good pairing.
Still, I wouldn't say any one character stands out here. They all make their presence known, though I'm struggling to remember any great moments individually - that's due to the aforementioned surplus. The rest of the cast, fwiw, are all fine - Mamoudou Athie sticks out most in that regard.
The run time is overlong, in my opinion. I personally could've done without 30 or so minutes and I wouldn't have felt it was missing anything. The story itself isn't all that fresh, as in I feel like I've seen this sorta thing before (I mean, Biosyn... how creative!), but the barrage of dinosaur-centric action probably just abouts tips it over into a positive rating for yours truly. Could easily be lower, though.
I'd love for this to be the end of the Jurassic franchise (is there much more to tell?) but there ain't no way Amblin/Universal are leaving this IP to collect dust, let's be honest.
For me, I only wanted to see this to see my favorite characters, the original ones. Everything else is kinda just boring or just doesn’t feel like it belongs in the JP world. There’s also way too much Borne Identity and Mission Impossible action added.
It has its moments.
Okayish and rather generic ending with Tim Cook and Apple HQ:sweat_smile:
Jurassic World Dominion was a solid 7.5 almost 8/10 tbh, i loved the way they included the actors from the first Jurassic Park and the way they had their Moments, that was really good
the moment the T-Rex went behind that circular fountain and sorta recreated the iconic Jurassic Park logo was a really nice touch, i loved all these little bits here and there that they included as an Ode to the original movie(s)
and Bryce Dallas Howard was amazing as always, i absolutely loved her in this movie, her scene in the jungle trying to silently crawl into the water and get away from that huge dinosaur was scary af, then when it showed her underwater as that dinosaur just SCREAMED into the water, chills.
speaking of scary, they kept the symbolic Jurassic Park feeling of being completely F*CKED, all the while being in the presence of such a scary & huge prehistorical creature like a T-Rex etc, there were some really great shots
For me it was a step down from both previous parts, but I enjoyed the ride. Gotta appreciate the effort the cast made to save the world.. we couldn't have made it without them
A very respectable ending to the series. The chase scene is worth the ticket price alone! Watch it on the biggest screen you can and is best on IMAX. 7.5/10
6 Jurassic Park/World films later…and it’s such a good series! I don’t totally understand the hate that this film is getting from so many places. Is it the greatest plot/movie ever? No. Is it the weakest of this trilogy? Possibly. It’s still damn entertaining. Personally, I like this marginally better than Jurassic Park III (which is also a solid film). It’s action scenes are top notch. The new dinosaurs are awesome. It brings back legacy characters. It’s everything someone should have wanted out of the end of the second trilogy of a series. Are there small gripes? Sure. But this movie is definitely worth watching, especially for “big summer blockbuster” types of movies.
(Extra opinion I’ll die on. The “Jurassic World” trilogy is the superior trilogy. “Jurassic Park” trilogy has the best movie, but the newer set have three uniquely memorable movies. The first goes for that family action charm that the original had, the second is a suspenseful action as they are in the house discovering the mystery and what’s happening, and this is a balls to the wall action adventure that could be a video game. The first trilogy has the first be amazing, the second goes for the same vibe with a weaker plot, and the third once again dips into the same vibe but loses the Spielberg charm. Both great trilogies, but I do appreciate how each movie had a separate identity here.)
Rating: 3/5 - 7.5/10 - Worth Watching
I Good to see old characters from the original back, definitely made it special and the film wasn’t brilliant, at moments was silly but it was enjoyable and better than the last two with more action and more dinosaurs.
I don't think that this was as bad as the review score on Rotten Tomatoes would suggest. I probably would have chopped 20-30 mins off to make it tighter but I think this is a 6.5-7.0 type film. I'm baffled at some of the reviews suggesting it to be truly awful.
There is click bait and there is trailer bait. So there is no Dino vs human and battle for dominion. Nope. Just more of the same. There is just another lab doing evil things where conflict is happening again on a lock down space (a island/park again). In between you have the old cast and new cast and new/new cast (including an Han Solo female replica). Then we get people running in one direction to save a person that is actually going in the opposite direction, we get James Bond spy scenes, Dino pursuits in Malta (the trailer bait) btw the Dino are commanded by a laser pointer!!, several scenes of dark hallways with Dino appearing, evil corporate scientist doing it for the money, scientists that has made a mistake and regrets it, and the obvious big Dino clash at the end.
I like Chris Pratt, but I’m sick of the whole hand thing that he does about a million times in the whole trilogy. Stop. It.
As a movie, it’s fine. Of course, it falls short of the original Jurassic Park, but I think I like it more than Park III for example. It’s cool to see the new cast and the old cast in this ‘final chapter’. That’s the biggest draw: nostalgia. As always, the movie looks great. No problem there.
What is a problem, is that it feels like two different movies crammed together, but it’s somehow still way too generic. It feels like a Jurassic movie and not a Jurassic movie at the same time. Kind of weird.
This movie is precisely what you expect it to be, the plot is only slightly jiggled from movie to movie but more-or-less remains the same. Cool CGI dino's, people trying not to get eaten, people getting eaten, unbelievable action, evil corporation trying to weaponize dino's (to an extreme level this time) and blah, blah, blah, barf.
Really the only redeeming quality this movie brings to the table is reuniting the original cast and the new cast for one last send-off, that brought an element of fun nostalgia to the movie.
When Chris Pratt does the whole "nod to the raptor" and "give the stop hand gesture to the raptor" and all of that you have to ask yourself: would this work on anything other than maybe a dog? I mean, if you did that to a lion you would be the lions human-kabob pretty instantly, but the hyper intelligent (as we are led to believe) raptor is like "oh, ok Chris, I get ya".... It was cringe worthy in the 4th installment, nauseating the 5th and is absolutely stupid in this one.
If this was the only movie in this realm, it's a watchable but otherwise so-so flick - as a continuation it's better than 2 and 3, not as good as 4 and about as mediocre as 5.
It was Ok, nothing more.
Thought thou, was the baddi boss man supposed to be Tim Cook?
This wasn't the comeback i was expecting, but maybe after Fallen Kingdom my expectations to have a better JW movie were a bit too high. This one continues to deliver a serviceable but simplistic thriller story, dragging on a bit too much at times especially near the end. The addition of older cast from JP along with new connections to those stories and characters didn't do much to make this one feel fresh or interesting. I felt the special effects were even better than Fallen Kingdom which was already fantastic on that regard, so that was nice. Overall i think people who have enjoyed Fallen Kingdom will have no issues appreciating this one as well, it's a more of the same kind of deal with some funny moments and a couple of well made action sequences but, yet again, it lacks and can't quite catch the magic of Jurassic Park.
This was another cash-grab movie. It's a shame that I thought it was worth watching, and also that I didn't record that I've watched it so I've ended up watching it again. I will be sure not to make a third watch. It has a lot of big name potential but it doesn't deliver with the story they are given.
What a train wreck.
Last one I hope ?’
Such a disappointing conclusion to a legendary saga.
Its way longer than it needs to be and it feel like 2 different movies are playing at once. The first hour is nonsensical boring action with characters that are introduced then soon abandoned who serve no purpose to the movie. The actual classic Jurassic Park story doesn’t come into play until the last 45 minutes (out of 2.5 hrs). The send off didn’t have much emotion, except for a nice looking final shot.
Jeff Goldblum and DeWanda Wise absolutely carried this movie. I appreciate what they were trying to do, and I'm glad the cast had a good time (especially the OG 3, it was delightful to see them together again) but this movie was a mess, there were way too many story threads and not enough time to deal with them all. This needed to be two movies, with more dinosaurs involved. I had such high hopes, especially after seeing how cool the Dino Tracker site they put up was (which, as it turns out, was mostly clips from this movie).
Besides the enormous number of plot threads — we saw probably six different locations in the first ten minutes of the movie — there were some serious problems with the dinosaurs themselves, in my opinion. I came to this after recently binging Prehistoric Planet and also the Camp Cretaceous show, and the differences are glaring. In this, the dinosaurs seemed to be either slightly unfinished-looking CGI or practical effects (either puppets or animatronics or some combination of the two) being handled by people who had never done so before. The closeups on the atrociraptors reminded me of the Goombas from the 90s Super Mario Bros. movie; the teeth didn't make sense, they looked like anglerfish teeth. The lystrosaurus (which I had to look up) looked like some type of Star Wars alien, and not in a good way. The dimetrodons were neat, but we barely got to see them. The dilophosauruses were definitely puppets, and looked/moved like it. I think my favorite was probably the therizinosaurus, a species I only know from playing The Isle, and which looked cool, sounded cool, added tension, and was incredibly badass by the end. Quetzalcoatalus was great too, but not around for very long. But the key to good CGI and good practical effects is having them be realistic enough that the viewer doesn't notice that they're not actual living things. Many, MANY of the dinosaurs in this failed that test.
It wasn't a bad movie. But considering its budget and the acting talent involved and the enormous weight of plot resolution it had riding on it, it should have been an amazing movie. The great thing about the Jurassic Park/World movies is that even when they're pretty bad (looking at you, The Lost World), they're still fun to watch because DINOSAURS!!! This one doesn't quite even manage that, there are too many people and too few dinosaurs. If you're a fan of the series, obviously watch this to wrap up all the plot, but I doubt I'll be watching it again.
At least Rexy's still alive and back on top. Also I guess the ending, with the dinosaurs mingling with regular animals, was pretty cool, if a little hamfisted.
Edit: Alright, I watched it again just so I could properly absorb all of the nonsense that happened. Besides the previous issues I had, I was more aware this time of the number of things that seemed to be happening just because they looked cool, and either served no real purpose in the plot, were never explained, or both. Owen riding a horse and splitting one parasaurolophus off from the group had no point and wasn't explained at all. Owen and Claire have been living with Maisie in that tiny cabin for four years? With no mention of school or jobs or anything? The stuff with the locusts was explained but didn't need to be there; they could have found some other reason for our heroes to go to the Biosyn sanctuary, easily, without the complication of prehistoric locusts. Everything in Malta could have been excluded and covered in some other way, and was entirely to look cool and have dinosaurs running around. I don't know. It was trying to be a Jurassic movie AND Indiana Jones or some sort of espionage thriller at the same time. It was too scattered, too many locations and new species that really WERE there just because, not enough of the old favorites, and again, too many story elements being handled at once. And the dinosaurs are still largely sub-par for this franchise that pioneered modern dinosaurs in movies. I would've much preferred a movie that detailed how humans were adapting to living with dinosaurs around the world, because THAT would've been very interesting to watch.
Better than Fallen Kingdom, but that wasn't exactly a high bar to clear. I was surprised to enjoy the first half more than the back half, as there were at least some action scenes that weren't nostalgia bait rehashes. Unfortunately, once we get to the new dinosaur park reserve, the movie starts to really bang us over the head with the greatest hits (e.g. Chris Pratt sticks out his hand at dinosaurs, Sam Neill/Laura Dern stare in awe at dinosaurs, Jeff Goldblum distracts dinosaurs, bad guy gets sprayed by dinosaurs, etc.). Some of these moments play just fine, and I was even okay with how they brought back Sam Neill's and Laura Dern's characters. They got more than just a glorified cameo, and there was some decent character moments in there. But at the end of the day, copying your older siblings homework can only take you so far.
The big problem here is the story. It's just not very good. The motivations are forced, the contrivances are plentiful, and the overall setup of the final act doesn't do anything to distinguish itself from Jurassic Park. In fact, all of the new elements introduced or further developed in this movie are paper thin and uncompelling (referring mainly to the locust problem and the continuation of the clone plotline from Fallen Kingdom). To the film's credit, the pacing is such that I was never bored, and I think the movie is perfectly serviceable as a mindless action blockbuster. But as a worthy successor to Jurassic Park? Far from it.
This is a mix of Fast & Furious, Top Gun, Mission Impossible, all at once. WITH DINOSAURS!
By the way, I wouldn't be with Chris Pratt... everything happens to him. Or I would, because he saves everyone all the time.
I'm not sure what else people would expect from a silly dinosaur movie... it's just what it always has been: a bunch of dinosaurs doing what they do best. And it's a good cinema experience to enjoy — obviously it's not meant to have a great story behind, and I've never expected this trilogy to have it. The special effects are really really good looking. I enjoyed it with all it's flaws.
It felt more of a nostalgia push than a solid smart blockbuster. Don't get me wrong, I loved seeing the old vs. the new, but maybe there was too much focus on being iconic again. The cgi also felt like it could have been a lot better, and if it was as good as they could get, then they didn't show it enough. Also, the casting for the new people (not OGs) was terrible. Nonetheless, it's a dino movie with fun action and big spectacles, so I'll want more of it forever.
This one is alot more cerebral than the other films in this trilogy. It focuses alot on conservation and ecological issues.
Two generations come together to save the world in Jurassic World: Dominion. When Maisie Lockwood is kidnapped from Owen and Claire and sold to a genetics lab, they attempt to rescue her; meanwhile Ellie Sattler works with her old friend Alan Grant try to track a genetically engineered insect that’s threatening the world’s food supply. The writers do some serious reconning to give Maisie a whole new backstory and importance, and to change the few dozen dinosaurs that escaped the Lockwood auction into hundreds (which can now breed somehow). And as a result, the story doesn’t feel like a continuation of the series. However, the action scenes and dinosaur chases are incredibly intense and exciting. Also, it’s kind of a treat to see the old and new casts come together. Yet while it’s entertaining and has its moments, Jurassic World: Domination is a disappointing film that doesn’t really add much to the series.
I watched this literally a couple of days ago and I can’t remember any major plot points… it was okay when it was on, and I liked it. But apparently it was very forgettable.
certainly not the best but by this point in a franchise i don't really expect anything to be great?? the OG cast was so lovely to have though, truly.
To combine the the original cast and with the modern day cast should've been a recipe for success but this failed way short. From beginning to end this movie was very difficult to keep pace with. Just like the original Jurassic Park, the sequels get worse.
the plot was somewhat better than i thought it would be. Thought, it was still lacking in substance
Not the best movie from the series but still enjoyable. Especially seeing the old and new generation together is nice...
Could have been better, i feel they needed to end the series, not a bad way to go I would say
…and now we wait for the remakes! They’re probably casting already. I was done at 90 minutes and my wife said is it almost over? I checked and couldn’t believe another hour was left! I’m not sure you pronounce gigantic as giggantic though lol
Now that the Jurassic World series has fumbled to a disappointing conclusion, it's super clear that 'Fallen Kingdom' is still the best of this trilogy.
I thought this was supposed to be about Dinos who co mingle with humans . instead we got seven people who rescue a kidnapped girl from a mad scientist who has some Dino close by UGR !!! and how was the CGI better in 1992 …
Do you want some F&F action with dinos and a nostalgic attack, here you go.
Meh.
Interesting to see the old characters return - for about 5 minutes... Jeff Goldblum is as weird as ever.
How to milk a franchise with very little to offer. And the CG was pretty rubbish - and given the first Jurassic really set the benchmark, how does that even happen.
5.75/10
It was okay. I think the only selling point was that it brought most of the original cast back to end the series.
It has been entertaining, but it hasn't been the best of the 3. I don't see the sense of the villain's plan. It has been good to bring together those of the old and those of the new
As usual… and too long
Not as good as the previous movies in the franchise but this still had its moments despite its silly plot points and overall cheesiness.
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Jurassic World Dominion’:
It was pure nostalgic joy to see the original cast together after all these years. Their chemistry is still magic, and they were clearly the highlight of this film. I even liked the direction they went in with Grant and Ellie. I was hoping for that outcome since the beginning. We JP fans are lucky to see our OG trio finally reunite.
Despite a few solid action scenes and some brief moments of greatness, this ultimately did not FEEL like a Jurassic Park film, something the earlier sequels still managed to somewhat achieve. And that’s what bothers me the most. The first half felt very much like a Mission: Impossible flick. I could have done with less espionage and over-the-top characters like Santos.
That plot didn’t deserve Ellie, Alan, and Ian. For a film that was meant to bring together two generations and serve as an epic Jurassic finale, it was sadly a fail. So many missed opportunities. There was no sense of true closure. No impactful full-circle moments. I tried explaining the storyline to my sister and it proved difficult. I may have lost her at kidnapped clones. All a bit forgettable. It wasn’t terrible, but it missed the mark for such a beloved franchise.
Bonus Thought: They should have stuck with the classic dinos. These hybrids left zero impact. And I would have been pissed off if T-Rex died in the end.
Extra Bonus Thought: Was it just me or was Dodgson terribly-acted with the worst dialogue? There were so many moments from him that fell so flat.
Extra Extra Bonus Thought: One blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment I appreciated was when the T-Rex walked behind a circular structure and provided a brief nod to the iconic JP logo.
Definitely the worst in the franchise! Was expecting something dark, scary and almost apocalyptic but instead this was a cheesy action flick. Dinosaurs are running loose everywhere and were focusing on locusts somehow. Acting was bad and cheesy it really felt like watching actors act. People were laughing quite often in the theater due to the cheesyness. Kid behing me kept asking his parents if the movie was finishing soon. Only thing worth the watch is the dinosaur effects and Jeff Goldblum's funny lines.
It's so sad and such a disappointment to see the original cast reunited for the worst movie (so far) in the series.
The original Jurassic Park was a great movie that played around with an interesting idea. This has become nothing more then paint by numbers Hollywood action cinema that just happens to have dinosaurs in it.
wow that was really really boring. i guess its the movie with the least amount of dinosaurs.
Worst of the bunch such a generic movie Skip this shitty movie
Far too long, but pretty good action sequences with a few interesting camera shots.
The story was more or less the same as every other JP movie, expect this one starred Tim Cook as the evil billionaire trying to rule the world from a compound that looked a little like 1 Infinite Loop.
For me there was just too much happening constantly. Normally that would take away from the story, but this was definitely a case of great FX needing something to glue the action sequences together. It’s almost like they designed the sequences first and then tried to figure out how to shoehorn a story into it.
Worst Jurassic movie made. So many plot holes, inconsistencies, and an attempt to make you feel sorry for the clone girl that released dinosaurs onto the world killing thousands of people in the process and ruining the earth's ecosystem. I have it 5 because of you know you're getting a B rate writing but at least some good acting it can be enjoyable/bearable.
Wow. This is...not good. Way too long and way too stupid. Seriously, who approved the final script for this one? Other than the occasional bit of humor, it is an absolute mess. How can you be entirely derivative and still screw it up this badly?
Absolutely representative of everything wrong with modern hollywood. I love it. It is a bad movie, the cgi looks like puppets in places the plot is thinly strung together video game cutscenes and all the major beats were included in the trailer. I'll watch it again, recommend keeping your expectations low and having a good time.
One of the worst jurassic world movie ever created. Bad script.
Just end it with jurassic world 2.
God was that bad.
Jurassic World Insect would have been the right title.
I miss the energy of the first part, the refreshing sci-fi elements and of course the dinosaurs.
It was as if an AI had remixed the biblical plague of locusts with Wolverine and Jurassic World elements
This movie was 2 hours too long.
A film where Apple CEO Tim Cook makes his acting debut.
Wanted to like it for the nostalgia and the fact the original was a personal fave when I was 12 watching it in theatres. Now that I'm 40 I'm sure the original would still be a fave, but this new generation trilogy finale wasn't very good. There were moments I smiled, but it felt wooden and like cardboard for the most part to me. Bad acting from the baddies, and just overall meh. Some fun dino scenes here and there and the movie really does look nice at home on a 65" lg OLED television in 4k Dolby vision. Overall it's a 5.4 for me. My other half gave it a 7.5 so take that for what it's worth.
If you liked Fallen Kingdom then you might like this one and if your like me and didn’t like fallen kingdom then this is also bad. I was actually excited for this one like the last one and yet again disappointed. I just found myself not interested and not caring about anything that happened. I never felt tense and scared for the characters and I feel like this franchise only works in the park opening setting. This movie is bland and boring and expects to wow people because their our dinosaurs which isn’t impressive anymore.
I could barely pay attention
I mean it's dinosaurs chasing people. It had a few throwback scenes but overall it's what you'd expect.
Honestly a little better than JW1 and JW2. I have to keep reminding myself of that because it's not a good movie. It's just not so awful my brain hurts. That said the things that really stick out in my head were the amount of casual death. They treated people getting eaten like it was a bloody cartoon. Jurassic Park made the dinosaurs horrifying creatures that would kill you and sometimes did but Jurassic World just throws it to the side. Yeah we have dinosaurs, yeah people get eaten by them but here's the real story. I saw a dude get eaten in the background and no one flinched or cared not even the camera man. it's callous and weird and makes me care less about the movie when their biggest monsters can eat everyone except the cast whom I do care about.
There were a LOT of cinematic motif homages to previous JPs. Not just Dr Grant referencing how he knows how much electricity was in the fences. There are recreations of scenes that expand or re-imagine their equivalent. My favorite being Ian Malcolm redoing his T-Rex distraction with... better results.
I think I've talked myself into giving this an average rather than below average score. There was a lot to work with and honestly they did a not awful job of it all things considered with all the awfulness of the first two. I have to admit surprise it didn't extend into the final one.
Trying to incorporate the original cast was a nice thought, but horrible execution. This was such a huge let down. The constant attempt at trying to help us viewers understand what the hell is going on made for a horrible watching experience.
Overall it was a good time pass. If you have better options, skip this movie. If you have no other options, it’s a decent way to waste 2.5 hours of your life.
Let’s hope this is the end of this franchise. Every release gets worst and worst.
Brought back a few old dinosaurs, big deal.
The animals were cool though! Not sure if a Giganotasaurus is actualyl a real thing... the whole "not a saurus" had me wondering if it was made up. Will need to look it up now :D
I should have known the writing for this movie would be horrible when they start it off with Dr. Ellie Sattler saying she is researching the harmful affects of animal agriculture on the environment.... all right, awesome! They can go into how it is one of the two leading causes (arguably #1) of climate change too!
Followed up by her saying she thinks regenerative farming is a good thing face palm
So they decided to make Dr. Ellie Sattler sound like an idiot because they couldn;t be bothere to do 5 minutes of research?
What made the first two movies so great was that they made the most of all the elements. They were thrilling, educational and most importantly, fun. Less is more. So much money was thrown at this film, yet it did not manage to be half as good.
The third act of the movie is done very badly on every level,plot, scenes, CGI it's like they know the movie is doomed already so they said let's not make much effort and let's get it done already
Time stamp 1:52:33
Pretty much sums it up.

I very much enjoyed the movie. At least it was about dinosaurs again. And great to see this reunion. They did that quite well. Lots of winks to the earlier movies and some other movies.
The bridge that Masie crosses, looks a whole lot like the one from A Quiet Place. At least from memory.
Sure there were some scenes that do not make a lot of sense, but its forgiveable.
My only true complaint is little to no John Williams music. There was a half hint to the theme of Jurassic Parc, but not enough
