Well don't expect the original JP and understand what you're getting into and appreciate the major scenes/set pieces. Even he said they were awesome.

Well that’s encouraging, as long as it looks good and is popcorn entertaining I’m cool with it.

If it’s a decent bit better than Dominion, that’s a win

Bump for spoilers

My 12 year old really wants to go see this. I like dinosaurs, but the last 2 have been so bad.

I'll probably take her because me and her haven't had a "just us" night, so glad to hear it isn't completely terrible.

Better than the last four but still underwhelming. The overall story was flat. The cinematography was decent but for frick's sake, dial the saturation back a bit so it doesn't look like an IG filter.

What really strained believability more than genetically engineered dinosaurs was a 90lb, 14 year old girl knocking a grown man on his arse. And when he backs off when she charges him in the climax... even though he has a gun. fricking stupidly bad.

Then there’s the dad... a textbook beta male who lets his daughters and the obnoxious dumbass boyfriend steamroll him like he’s a substitute teacher and he allowed it. Give me a fricking break.

Just like JP3 you instantly knew who was destined to be dino shite. Billy was the only wildcard in JP3. In JWR, I guess it’s the boyfriend even though I was pretty sure they wouldn't dare to kill a kid off. But as soon as the entire gang is together, you can instantly point out who's dying.

The kills were forgettable and underwhelming. The whole awestruck Titanosaurus moment was just dumb. We’ve seen six of these movies now and these wonder struck scenes aee stale and these cartoon creatures are about as impressive as a fricking youtube ad.

And the score was forgettable. Just bland, generic background noise with no identity and barely any emotion that forgetsitself by the next scene. Half the time I felt like I was watching Danny Mcbride and Will Farrell's land of the Lost rather than a Jurassic Park movie thanks to the score.

I personally wished we saw more of the raptors and would have preferred them over the mutadons or whatever the hell they were called.

And the D-Rex... I did like how he didn't show up until the climax. But wtf? What a letdown. For a huge mutant dinosaurs with six limbs, he was unimpressive. I am glad we didn't see a final battle scene between dinosaurs.

With that being said, it was better than I expected it to be. Still full of stupidly dumb shite but far less than the previous four movies. It's worth a watch once but don't expect anything original or earth shattering. But they really need to kill this franchise although we know Universal won't.

Watched last night. Pretty ridiculous movie but I enjoyed it.

It was ok, but the big bad looked like something out of a Godzilla movie, not Jurassic Park. I liked the ones with Chris Pratt better.
