This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's definitely better than Fallen Kingdom, but the bar was so low it didn't have to be that good to do that. The biggest problem is that you have two casts of two generations of movies and they don't interact until the end. Viewers will know that they aren't in real danger until they come together so there is no tension until the third act, and even then viewers know character deaths are unlikely. Expand

Is it the worst one in the series? Nah. The problem with this movie is that, they marketed it as , "Oh, the Dinosaurs are loose and humanity is no longer the top dog. Life found a way blah blah blah" but its really only like that for one scene. The rest of the film theyre like trapped in this forest preserve and have to stop these giant mutated locusts from taking over.

The plot itself is a jumbled mess, I can sort of understand that they had ALOT of difficulties filming this movie because of COVID restrictions and they probably had to make a ton of changes to things to adapt to the conditions.

The positives are the dinos, they look fantastic and they're really doing fine work making these things look as real as possible. The legacy characters are fantastic even though Alan Grant is mostly playing second to Ellie Satler and Ian Malcolm is kinda there but he contributes more towards the end of the film. Bryce Dallas Howard's character is given the most development from the new characters, she's easily improved the most since the first one. My favorite new character is actually Kayla Watts, portayed by DeWanda Wise. Wise does a great job in bringing a likable and badass side character that offers some laughs too.

Besides the jumbled plot and so-so direction, Dominion was passable.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not as good as the legendary Jurassic Park but I enjoyed it I was certainly entertained. I liked that they brought back some of the original cast and that they played an integral role to the movie rather than just cameos. I'm also very glad they brought back Maisie she's my favorite character in the entire series she makes us wonder if cloned humans are people who deserve to be treated same as any human or are they just worthless shadows who should be condemned and used for organ farming.

This is not a bad movie...

The opening was magical, the middle part was a bit slow and dragged a bit, the end was okay but predictable. Then there is a really good epilogue.

Yes, it has flaws but lets look at the positive side first. The sound of this film is nicely done. There is a chase scene in this movie where you are invested completely... the sound pulls you in and all speakers fire on all cylinders. The music is cut out to deepen the action in the scene.

Then there are a few small jump scares here and there which i felt was a nice touch. The film also jumps to multiple locations.

The actors where also doing their part in giving it their best.
Old cast members return.
We also get to see NEW Dinos.

Now some negatives:

- I feel the Action was limited and there is a section in the movie where the movie comes to a slow crawl.
- Sadly, MUCH more could've been done with the story.
- 1 girl means everything in this film not the Dinos.
- We need to see More Dinos.
- There is always 1 bad guy running the show...

I feel a better director is needed for these films.

It's best to leave the Original film behind you and turn off your brain and simply enjoy this movie. I do in fact Recommend you watch this movie.

But it does several things right, starting with bringing back the original characters including Dr. Grant, Ellie Sattler, Ian Malcolm, and Henry Wu. And not just in fan-servicing cameos, but as major players in the plot. The chemistry is great between them and also with Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. The girl playing Maisie is unfortunately another flat, humorless, and wooden actress in the mold of Daisy Ridley (Rey from Star Wars). Great shout-outs to the original movie, like the Barbasol can and the characters stuck in a jeep that's either rolling down a hill or being swatted around by a hungry dinosaur. Several fun action scenes. The plot is absurd, and the idea of dinosaurs running loose in the wilds and roaming our city streets would be complete chaos in the real world, not to mention the end of countless mammals in our ecosystems. It would also bring camping to an end as a pastime. Sure, let's go to Yellowstone, just keep an eye out for those raptors! Henry Wu is given more to do in his return, which was nice to see. While silly, the film is consistently entertaining, which puts it ahead of a lot of recent action/fantasy films and shows (Star Wars, Marvel, cough). A fun two-plus hours. Expand

I'm not a person who can be categorized as a fan of this franchise.
With the exception of the first one, which was the only one that I found groundbreaking, all of its sequels were basically an ode to human stupidity that didn't understand that these creatures were not to be messed with.

Now for the reason that this is supposedly the last film - for a while at least- And because of the return of the three original lead actors, Jurassic World Dominion had elements that made it feel more exciting and yet they couldn't create a script that could live up to the hype, not even in terms of coherence, but in terms of epicness.

Jurassic World Dominion is a film that feels bloated, muddled, disoriented, and the saddest part of all, utterly empty.

There are nods to the original film, and with that the creators hope the audience will feel nostalgic and forget that they could have demanded a better story.

Jurassic World Dominion knows it's a show and that's the basis for all its gameplay, but it fails notoriously in the construction of a narrative.
It doesn't get any good thrills or an emotional closure and when I got to that ending, after so many years all I could think was ''Is that it?'' and unfortunately that sums up the whole disappointing experience.

While bringing back the original cast was nice to see and the visual effects (namely the many practical ones) are some of the best of the series, everything else in Jurassic World: Dominion is an absolute slog. The story is a snoozefest that's just so overstuffed yet boring at the same time. The whole Dinosaurs living with humans concept is NEVER truly explored either, which would've made for a unique tale. Furthermore, the acting is a total mixed bag, but the bad writing is doing the actors no favors. You know when the chief complaint of your previous movie (Fallen Kingdom) was the terrible script, you're supposed to find new scriptwriters right? Well, either the producers nor Universal seemed to understand this, as Dominion sends the Jurassic series off with a big old pile of Dino dung. Expand

There is nothing original or exciting here, which is disappointing because the last film ended by establishing creative possibilities with dinosaurs living among us. That being said, watching dinosaurs chase people and fight each other is extremely entertaining. There are worse ways to spend a Sunday afternoon than turning your brain off for a while and enjoying this movie for that alone. Expand

While you're at it, put on Jurassic Park III, at only 9 minutes, and grossly underrated. Expand

Dominion is a satisfying conclusion to the series that goes out with a bang.
5 out of 5 stars.

Jurassic World Dominion is an awesome science fiction action film that ends the series in a high note. And takes the Jurassic Park film which it never has been there before. Feeling different from the previous films. Which some may enjoy or some will miss the nostalgia of being back in the island with dinosaurs.

The plot follows with people trying to coexist with dinosaurs. Some are amazed by the creatures living among them. While others are breeding and using them for an evil agenda. The plot follows Owen (Chris Pratt) and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) who are living in hiding and trying to keep Maise (Isabella Sermon) safe. After the previous film and discovering her secret. While Ellie (Laura Dern) discovers prehistoric locusts that are destroying the farm fields and can be leading to our extinction. Which she enlists Alan (Sam Neill) and Ian (Jeff Goldblum) to help out and find out who is behind that. Which are the same people that Owen and Claire are looking for after they kidnap The raptor Blues baby.

The plot has a couple of storylines that intercept and feels different than previous films. Which makes it feel like a globe trotting action thriller as Claire and Owen come across hybrid mixed raptors that are weaponized to attack certain people. Leading to a motorcycle chase scene in Malta.

The action sequences are awesome. The visual effects are great. The cast ensemble is great. Its nice to see the original trio Sam Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum back in action. I also love they brought one original character from the first movie back into the mix as a villain in this film. If your a fan of the series when the name is popped up. You will easily recognize. The film music score is also great.

For a long running time with the movie. It does feel fast moving and short with the movie running into one action set piece to another. Overall, the film is one fun big blockbuster thats best to see on the big screen..

You see a pattern here ? Apart this insulting story, the CGI are good. The action is acceptable but you also get a very slow beginning (almost 50 minutes of it). The music was recycled. The sounds didn't appeal to me and some were just plainly bad (dinosaur sounds). The acting was ok, maybe the redeeming factor, even with the villains disaster. I give the movie a 35%.

I made it about 3 minutes into the film before I absolutely had to shut it off. Not only does nothing in the intro make any sense at all, but it doesn't even coincide with the ending of the last film.

- Like 12 dinosaurs ran off from the mansion, not hundreds, not even half that. Do writers even understand how animal populations work? Fictional or not, if you lack enough breedable male or females in a species- they die off! You can't reproduce from a handful of dinosaurs, they'd be inbreeding a few generations later.
- Literally no one on the planet would just let Dinosaurs somehow leave the mainland of one continent. Its completely ridiculous. How did the Dinosaurs spread from Asia to Australia? Did they build a boat? Its atrociously stupid writing.
- Who in their right mind would just "live with" the dinosaurs as if they weren't a constant threat to civilian populations? They mention some off-the-cuff line about "most" of the predators being caught, but that doesn't mean huge animals wouldn't disrupt highways, public transportation, or worse- destroy the environment for other animals, causing numerous other problems that would require intervention.

If Dinosaurs just accidently "oopsy whoopsy" existed and ran amok then the military would totally hunt them down. Remember what happened whenever a large Elephant escaped a circus? Yeah, its like that only with more teeth and higher caliber bullets. Worst Jurassic park movie I've ever seen in my life and that is saying A LOT after sitting through "Lost world." Glad I didn't pay a dime to see the last two.

When I think of Jurassic Park film , I remember the cinematography
masterpiece of the first part that starts especially in the middle of the movie. which was the accepted effect of a movie in the 2 previous years . (though not the impression that remains in imitation). In the Jurassic Park 1993, none of the dinosaurs change into form, but the behavior that the characters emit in front of it creates an image of them in the mind. Maybe that's why we hardly feel such a void. . The most powerful sequence of jurassic world 2022 is when one of the dinosaurs looks at the surface of the water,like the most powerful sequence of jurassic park 1993 when looks at the car. Here too, none of the dinosaurs transform into a form.The brilliance of Spielberg to definition of the narrative covers the Plot's flaws in Jurassic park. Of course, I think that after some time, Spielberg himself came to the conclusion to use the sense of humor, but this sense of humor or caricature or darkness or the softness aspect should be done in the form of dinosaurs. Not to make dinosaurs that look too natural and serious while deflecting the sense of humor in a different angle.
The action senses related to the Clare are perfect ; the rest
are istereotype. 3/75/5

Only saving grace of the film was the original cast and Blue, the raptor. The original trio outshines the new characters in every way they all share a scene. For a film that's been marketing itself as a "finale" doesn't seem like one. They opened it up for a sequel, and this will make mega bucks. The close practical effects for the dinosaurs were fantastic. The writing for main plot was not interesting at all due to building off from the last film, making the twist into a full fleshed story with lore ect.. then again these last 3 films were nothing but entertaining dinosaur movies. Great popcorn fun. If you're turned off by the plot then the dinosaur segments are worth the price of the admission alone. The original cast's characters were treated with respect following the trend of Ghostbusters, Maverick ect.. unlike Star Wars 7-9.. Sam, Laura, and Jeff all share scenes together and not one of them get ruined for the sake of shoving the new characters into their spotlight. The directors knew what the fans wanted when they casted the original actors. My rating is a 4/10. Not the best in the series but it is better than Lost World: Jurassic Park and Fallen Kingdom Expand

I grew up a massive fan of the entire Jurassic franchise. With the World series, I let some flaws not impact my joy of them because I believe in the final film we were promised. It did not deliver.

Sadly, this one was just made for money, the visuals are good fortunately, it's a basic 2022 blockbuster with a lot of effort in the fx but the rest is not really good.

This can be a relief though, as recently went to Thor and was reminded just how single I am, as the movie raised themes I didn’t want to address. By contrast the latest Jurassic world provided me with a few hours of entertainment away from asking the deeper questions in life! Expand

The spectacle is there, some charm of the characters are there, and the action set pieces are very well done. This isn't really a 'Jurassic' movie however and that was fine with me. It is purely more of an action adventure film. The first act is very messy but the Malta sequence in the second act is absolutely riveting. Michael Giacchino's score is fantastic as always especially during that Malta sequence. I love the new Biosyn theme, as well as the Giganotosaurus motif. The visual effects are dazzling and the designs of the new dinosaurs are stunning as well. The Maisie Lockwood subplot is somewhat mediocre and doesn't have much weight unfortunately. The movie is too long and some of the dialogue scenes with the Dodgson character as well as the main protagonists just drags sometimes. I saw it 3 times in the theaters already and I don't understand why people seem to dislike the film so much. It's competently done popcorn entertainment and I really enjoyed the hell out of it.

The times someone is saved at the last second it's way too much, boring, too long movie, CGI is good but thats it. Plot points leading nowhere and too many nostalgia pandering, references are nice, but this is way too much (even the shave spray can for hiding stolen DNA is here lol !? it was lost in mud in the first movie), you have to turn you brain off, disappointing. Was nice to see the original cast, but the story is just lacking...

"Jurassic World: Dominion" is as much of a soulless, disjointed and frustrating experience as you've been hearing it is, with some truly crushing mediocrity on display in the narrative department. This is a movie that hedges all of its promotional material — and its opening montage, to boot — on the central question posed by the conclusion of its predecessor; can dinosaurs and humans truly coexist? In that, you're expecting what? Probably a movie involving the characters at hand trying to grapple with dinosaurs in a civilized environment, right? Welp. What we do get is yet another movie featuring a cadre of characters traipsing around a failing wildlife sanctuary, followed by an ending montage that would have you believe the movie just answered the aforementioned question at hand, even though it really, truly hasn't in any way, shape or form. In fact, the central plot of this movie is split between two groups of characters — Chris Pratt's Owen Grady, Bryce Dallas Howard's Claire Dearing and Isabella Sermon's Maisie Lockwood, and then Sam Neill's Dr. Alan Grant, Laura Dern's Dr. Ellie Sattler and Jeff Goldblum's Dr. Ian Malcolm — leading to a wholly bifurcated feeling to things. These two narratives never really coalesce in a cohesive, natural or satisfying way. More importantly, the split time ends up betraying every character in the film with an ultimate lack of development. Add on some of the most confoundingly agitating retcons I've seen in a franchise film in quite some time and you get a real disappointment at the theater, dinosaur fights and legacy character appearances be damned.

I found this very sad because this is currently the only series thatIt pains me to say it, but I was bored...I wanted it to be over and thats something I never thought I would feel watching a Jurassic Park/World movie. What happened here? I found this very sad because this is currently the only series that portrays Dinosaurs in a somewhat of a realistic manner and they have managed to screw it up.

The original Jurassic Park was and still is, such a wonderful piece of entertainment because their creators understood that the hook of Dinosaurs is the fact that we know that they were real, they existed, they were animals on earth. And thus, they portrayed them as realistic as possible, like animals suddenly brought back from extinction. The fact that they looked and acted so real, made as all look at them in awe just like the characters in the movie were looking at them. That was the hook, and it was all tied up nicely with a simple story that would explain to us logically how it all came to be with characters that would complement all the questions with their own curiosity.

But now, Dinosaurs are taken from granted, so much so, that they are not even the main threat of the plot. I will say this...Despite liking the first Jurassic World, the moment they started to portray the Dinosaurs as characters (Like Blue the raptor), the moment they started to screw everything up. Like I said, this were animals and the interesting thing about them is that they were huge and probably dangerous given all their teeth...but when they start to characterize them or portray them as monsters (God, I hated those laser beam focused raptors) the moment you take away the sense of awe and respect that such creatures emanate.

This is a movie that is more focused on the action and the big set pieces than anything else and it looses all direction. Getting to see the old cast was fun and they do everything admirably well, but the fact that they are here and this turned out to be such a derailment from the original movie makes me feel kind of disgusted.

We all know that making Jurassic sequels is not easy, and that capturing the magic of the original is nearly impossible given that, that was the first one to ever show us the creatures with such detail...but this was not the way to go.

I could probably write more and more paragraphs detailing why the movie is such a miss, given how the story is incredibly contrived, some characters are awful stupid and basic (the main villain), some of the performances are not very good and the complete lack of tension within it despite being a movie where Dinosaurs try to eat people - yet, the biggest point I wanted to make was the complete lack of understanding of what made the original so compelling. It was, because it made us think and question "what if, what if this creatures really came back, what would that feel like?"...this movie doesn't do that, in fact Jurassic movies have long gone from trying to do that, and this is the one movie where it finally hit me to a point where I was completely disconnected from it. A shame.

While the first Jurassic Park was amazing for visuals, revolutionary for the technical aspects of making the film, and a cult film for brining dinosaurs to the silver screen, the rest of the franchise looked more and more as soulless crash grabs. Jurassic World Dominion has one redeeming factor: It doesn't want to be anything more than entertainment with plenty of action and some plotholes. No matter how stupid the film is they managed to deliver what they wanted to delivery, what they promised to deliver. They recognized how the original novel behind the Jurassic Park franchise doesn't make sense, how the author is a technophobe, and some of his novels speak about how he fails to understand even everyday technology, well known practices and his fear comes from lack of understanding. But you can't build several stories on lack of understanding without revealing those holes in the story. When te Jurassic World franchise decidedly wanted to look less realistic, and present us a dystopic scifi world, it gave them some freedom to justify some of the silly things. Now with the last entry into the series they can't explain how dinosaurs would spread so fast, how they would adapt to everything, how noone would have time to prepare... This looks horribly bad for most of the viewers. But once you understand this piece never wanted to be more than a mildly interesting action flick because that is the best they can do with source material, and if they decide to always accept plot holes, unrealistic elements for more fun, then all of these issues are natural. For people who want to treat the whole franchise seriously, and want to think about any part of this action flick, it is horrible. For me, it is just pointless. If you can't make good films about an IP, because the IP is bad, you shouldn't make any film about it. But of course this stupid movie is still profitable... Expand

This movie was absurdly bad. Just completely unrealistic and over the top to the point where it was unnecessary.

This is called milking a franchise dry. The actors kept things moving (God love them!), but there were no new ideas, and frankly I wasn’t as keen as I thought I would be to see all my old dinosaur friends again.

Even they seemed bored, and rather moth-eaten. Expand

This was a painfully bad movie more about locusts than dinosaurs. Crammed full of nostalgic characters to attempt to keep you from noticing there's no laid out plot.

THIS WAS SO DARN GOOD.

Holy damn.
It's such a evolution from the previous movies, I love it.
