Reviews seek to be extremely mixed from best Jurassic sequel to boring and unoriginal

Hollywood is so cooked

These movies are critic-proof

Based on the ones I've read it seems like the consensus is that its an alright movie. I don't expect much from 'monster' movies other than "its an alright way to spend a couple of hours" so I'll probably watch it.

Ouch. I'm a barely interested bystander. I have zero interest in these films since the first one. However, I am curious as to how Hollywood responds when the usual stuff (sequel/prequel/reboot/reimagining/huge spectacles of nostalgia-driven IPs) doesn't work consistently enough to return a profit.
I mean, the move is already on - the double strike may have ended Hollywood (meaning the film industry heavily centered in L.A.) and this is just the tailing off of what "was". I suppose we'll see...

I would rather have Primitive War over this.

55% seems about right.
Seems about right, too. It just depends on the scale upon which you're rating the movie.

Yeah, the critics comparing it to the original or expecting some arthouse character study confuse me. Why would you ever judge it on that scale?
Posted on 6/30/25 at 1:33 pm to dawgfan24348
Doesn't matter. Foreign audiences just like monsters and robots and explosions and this, like its shitty predecessors, will make bank.
Plus, I have heard good things. Maybe the critics are just pissed because it's not fgty enough.

From the YouTube critics I typically watch they all agree it's not as good as Jurassic World, but better than all the other sequels.

It has 3-5 incredible set pieces.
Is it CGI monster stuff? Yes. Is that what I'm judging the movie on? Also yes.
It's not the original, but literally only a small % of movies ever made can compared to the original JP. I have no idea why people keep trying to do that. For a JP sequel, it's top tier.

ScarJo needs to put a lid on her bad talking about the "male gaze" crap and just promote the movie. She can answer that stuff a month or so AFTER the movie comes out, not 2 days before.

That'll stop all the three people that care about that from going to the movie.

It's a hell of a lot more than 3.
She used her assets for a good 15 yrs, right before #MeToo, now that she's crossed the 40 yo barrier, & isn't cashing in on her bod in a tight leather outfit, she wants to re-chart her career and pretend she's now all above being eye candy?
Fine, but let's not forget the very first scene most folks know of her from is that shot from behind at the open of Lost in Translation. IYKYK.
She took the part of Black Widow, a fem fatale, knowing damn well what role she'd be playing. it wasn't Marvel's fault, not 'dirty old man' Stan Lee, but how the character was drawn. She could have turned down the part.
But anyways, I'll probably still go see JW because dinosaurs.

They are close to the point that they can't win. There was a Disney studio guy who put it best recently. People complain that there's no original content anymore, everything is a remake or a sequel. Then, when they do put out original content like Elio, no one will go to see it.
They can't figure out what people are willing to pay to go see and not shite all over.

That's objectively BS and he knows it. Hollywood just got addicted to billion dollar box office trips (and money laundering) but now that they're contractually forced to insert The Message into everything they do, they've painted themselves into a corner. Small budget movies don't move the needle for the investors and of course, harder to hide funny money around when your budget is less than 30 million & make it worth their while.

Yeah, because females would have lined up to see a guy with a beer belly playing James Bond...

Seriously, for all the crap we're hearing about 'objectifying' women, we never hear any guys whining about taking their shirts off, or more (You flicked too hard!) in all of these super hero movies.
What's good for one side should be good for the other. Right?

Disney has lost the trust of moviegoers
They did it to themselves
How do you go out of your way to antagonize 50% of your potential audience by deriding a bill that, even if you got your way, gets you nothing in terms of additional audience
It was the most bizarre bullshite move from Disney. Now everyone assumes everything they do is agenda-related.
Doesn't help that their next to releases were Uber woke Strange World and Lightyear (which THEY made an issue out of)
Then we get video of their chick talking on Zoom about their "not so secret gay agenda"
It was just fumble after fumble. . .and all of it was unnecessary. Had they done none of that shite, there would have been zero backlash from the left aside from a few tweets.
It was a masterclass in diminishing your brand by making all the wrong decisions.
As Mike Birbiglia once said, "what I should have said. . . . is nothing"
