Sounds like it’s better than Jurassic World I and it tries to be different. But it’s definitely a turn your brain off movie.

Both of these can't be true.

I’m okay with this. It’s a dinosaur movie.

I enjoyed Jurassic World, but the plot to this one seems stupid. Mother Nature is blessing you with a way to clean up your disaster of an experiment, but you're going to send in a mission to rescue animals who previously went extinct millions of years ago from going extinct again? What am I missing?

I’m fine with turning off my brain and watching Dinos chase BDH in heels while her sandbags jiggle in a tank top

Is this a criticism? In a movie where the basic plot point is dinosaurs eating people, it's not for rocket scientists.

If they tried to make the dinosaurs a metaphor for the reuinification of Germany, I'd be more critical of that.

When I read "The sheer absurdity is unappealing" about a popcorn dinosaur movie . . . I stop reading.

You also understand RT had The Last Jedi at 91%. For that alone, I don't believe shite what reviewers think anymore.

Will there be dinosaurs? This is really the only answer that matters for me.

I’ll watch it but I’m sure there was a great JP4 concept that got thrown in the trash in order to have made up dinosaur breeds and pet raptors.

So, it seems like critics are mixed for how original this movie is. Some people think it takes some creative new steps and has some interesting ideas whereas others say it’s dtkll generic.

I've read some reviews and the general consensus seems to be that the first half is pretty much an action movie with a frick ton of dinos and the second part is much more isolated and horror driven. There's also a plot twist that some people loved and others didn't and also a couple of massive gut punches as well

Prolly garbage like the first one. Crossing my fingers for another 90 Mercedes Benz ad.

Well, no one is going to see a Jurassic Park/World movie expecting to see some existential thought piece like "Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" or thriller like "Silence of the Lambs".

If the raptors starting having a theological debate 20 minutes into the movie, I'm leaving.
