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.… Expand

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. TheThis 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.

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.… Expand

A film that is nowhere near the impact of its predecessors. It starts off slowly and the story feels flat. Outside of the CGI, it was a disappointment.

Kind of reminded me of "Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker" in its focus on cheap cheers from nostalgic franchise fans over actual storytelling. 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

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

"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.… Expand

The film-making tools used in this film show a knowledge of the curriculum, but just using every trick in the text-book does not a great film make. Sometimes restraint is required, and that is exactly what I wish this movie would have done, to lay off for a second or two to late me catch my breath. There were some great moments with Bryce Dallas Howard swimming through a pond covered in duckweed and Chris Pratt being chased not by motorbikes but by velociraptors in Malta in Bond-esque fashion. The Dinosaurs spring up every chance they get which is exciting at first but the novelty quickly wears off. A new live-action dinosaur appears every two minutes and packed in back to back like sardines and characters stare at them stunned like they were still seeing them for the first time. I know if it was me all I would be thinking, 'it's just another animatronic dinosaur, nothing to see here'. If the dinosaurs were fewer and further between when they came on screen their presence would be impactful however what can you do when you've let them all out. At the end of the day less is more and that's no less true with Jurassic World Dominion. It might leave you motion sick and queasy but it is a rollercoaster ride nonetheless. They stretched the formula as far as it could possibly go (and sometimes further) and I for one am relieved its all over. Time for some long earned rest for the franchise.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Where to start...the movie was okay, there was some good action moments and some dumb moments.
The CGI of the dinosaurs were actually great, that's one positivity I can give for this movie and also Jeff Goldblum out did himself in this movie.
Other than that the movie was everywhere, some parts didn't make sense, you got some new evil characters in the movie that only appeared in the movie for a few minutes and have no other part in the movie after that.
And this whole "evil corporation" taking over the world is getting tiresome, I can't keep up with all these different evil corporations through out the series. It's like who are these people? How are they tied into the original movies? And why should we care about them? It's very confusing.
Oh and the clone daughter, yeah had no idea who the mom is, apparently she was one of the biggest and skilled scientist in the first movie, but she was never mentioned in the first movie at all. Like why? Why was she some part of an important piece in the first Jurassic Park movie, if she was never mentioned? I don't know... my son was very invested in the movie being a big dinosaur fan, makes me happy to see he's enjoying it.
As for me I would rather watch something else. Again it's an okay movie, got cool parts here and there. But the original Jurassic Park movies 1 through 3, is the best in my book. The first Jurassic World (aired in 2015) movie was great but after that it just started to get boring. So this is an average 6/10 rating for me.… Expand

The nostalgia of seeing the original cast, and a few cool scenes with some never-before-seen dinosaurs are about the only redeeming moments of what is otherwise a badly written, disjointed story and overall disappointing experience for fansThe nostalgia of seeing the original cast, and a few cool scenes with some never-before-seen dinosaurs are about the only redeeming moments of what is otherwise a badly written, disjointed story and overall disappointing experience for fans of Jurassic Park. This is the first movie of the entire series that really makes dinosaurs the least threatening element of the film, which is probably relevant given the circumstances of the world right now. The beginning jumps right in where the previous movie left off, with dinosaurs roaming freely across the world in every major country, state and city. In short: dinosaurs are not nearly as dangerous and terrifying if they are left alone and have a whole world to roam in. This is a major departure from the source material, Michael Crichton’s brilliant novels of the same name, where dinosaurs being unnaturally resurrected from the ancient past displaces man as the dominant species of the earth. The dinosaurs are not at risk by man, but the other way around. The new Jurassic World trilogy flips this paradigm to make an obvious nod to modern animal rights and preservation movements. The change in philosophy does not serve the point of the movies as being suspenseful monster films. They probably don’t even realize it, but it actually patronizes nature itself when it portrays the largest and most dangerous creatures to ever live on earth, still at man’s mercy to be saved.

Each sequel has an evil or irresponsible corporation at the center, messing with nature for it’s own gain. In this one, it’s a new corporation called Biosyn (read: Bio Sin) that has created a prehistoric locust that was secretly released into the world (which they are covering up) and is threatening to destroy the food supply. Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) one of the original cast members from the first movie wants to investigate the corporate headquarters to prove this was a lab-leak (sounds familiar). The scenes with the original cast bring back warm memories of the first film and trilogy, and they seemed pleased to be back. They brought charisma to the story and their scenes were more enjoyable than their counterparts. If they had focused the story on fewer characters, I think they would have more time to develop a plot.

The final failure of the movie was not telling a good story. The locust theme ends up being paper thin and under-developed, along with the “villains” of Biosyn or what it is was they were actually trying to do. It would have been cool to see more of the “evil corporation” theme developed and perhaps show a lesson on real corporate greed, since that’s obviously what they wanted to do. On a positive note, there are some very interesting new species of dinosaurs showcased. At least two scenes provide a genuine jump scare, and there are some excellent visuals. The dinosaurs were there for thrills and danger, but the movie was about taking down a corporation and stopping a global plague. And once all the usual chase scenes and explosions we’ve seen a million times were through, and all pointless characters had their backstories filled in, even at 2.5 hours there was too little time to develop a compelling, central story.

I would probably advise that even fans of the series save themselves a pricey movie ticket and stream this when it’s available. For those looking for a suspenseful monster flick, go ahead and skip.… Expand

There were so many sub plots that happened that I couldn’t keep up where the movie was going and could barely take in where it had been. I swear at one point I realized that they had “Pitch Meeting” their way of getting out of situations with such “super easy barely and inconvenience” that I gave up and just tuned out the dialogue. That’s when it started to enjoy it. Just the spectacle. It’s too bad because there were a couple of legitimately great ideas that they could have focused on instead of flopping down the next “high stakes problem” that fell flat because there was rarely any tension on screen. Also apparently the CEO of Apple, AKA “Tim Apple” (ha), is now biotech guy. None of that was subtle and I actually liked that. Can’t recommend the movie to fans of the franchise, but kids will enjoy it.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Final visit to the Jurassic world
Good dinosaur action scenes but the plot could have been better. This is my first review on Metacritic so keep that In mind. I went into the film wanting a nice enjoyable film about how Dinosaurs have took over the planet and how it effects the humans living among them.
"life finds a way" It was good seeing the old cast from Jurassic Park and it work well when the old cast getting introduced to the newer cast. The chase scenes with the Velociraptors chasing the new cast was really exciting to watch and getting to see underground organisation on how they transport the dinosaurs to the sanctuary was good to learn too.

Why I have the score of a 6? Overall, I thought it was good popcorn action movie and I enjoy my time with the movie. The special effects of the dinosaurs was good, the music was ok, the acting was good but I felt some of the lines were a bit cringle at times. It only happened once or twice. The plot was ok but I felt that more could have been done. I would have liked to see more conflict between the wildlife of today and the dinosaurs like a loin going up against a T-rex would have been really cool. I also felt that characters were too safe at times, what I means is you have a lot of characters since at this point of the franchise it would have been a good to see some characters go out in a blaze of glory so I would feel something for these characters and my score would go up but at least 1 point but instead barely get injured.(If you watch the film at the point where the characters exit the plane you will get what I mean). The Locust plot was a bit out there. I did see what the point of the Locust was but don't really get why create something like this in the first place. The final battle, I thought was very satisfying. Could I recommend this movie? sure. go for it. If you are wanting a fun time with dinosaurs, watching characters escape death from being a dinosaur happy meal then I recommend this movie.
(update on review 11/6/22) I would say now the film is above average movie and 6 is more reasonable score and I thought a 7 was being too generous.
visuals 6/10
music 5/10
characters 6/10
plot 5/10
enjoyment 6/10
overall 6
Thank you for reading my review.

It has a lot of potential in the beginning, before dwelling into the same 'dino in an enclosed space' routine of the past installments. At times, with so many cast members, it feels like two films, with two different storyline that seemingly never gels together. All in all, a truly missed opportunity for this franchise.… Expand

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.… Expand

An expensive movie with famous actors should not be so empty! It is impossible not to use the fertile idea of dinosaurs in the modern world at all! Why was it not to develop the finale of the second film, why was it necessary to drive the dinosaurs back to the reservations, when anything could be done from the third "World": from psychological drama to the apocalypse?.. It does not leave a feeling that this is not the third part of the "World" that should be removed, that this is not a story at all, but a working out of "homework". Corny, boring – what could be sadder?..… Expand

Though it was fun to see the classic characters and a couple good new ones, it was just strange storytelling that didn’t work at all. I was bored even when the intense action scenes came along, partly because of the bad storytelling, but also because the action scenes themselves had a strange removed quality to them with endless ridiculous and extreme occurrences with no stakes or sense of peril to the main characters. The whole movie felt like a big mess. Reminded me of the feelings I had watching Rise of Skywalker as far as weird, lifeless storytelling trying to close out an epic blockbuster franchise.… Expand

NOSTALGIA TIME!

A long back then, who never felt the dinosaur hype? This movie clearly to lit our nostalgic memories about that hype! All the cast from the old movies to the latest movies are perfectly aligned in this movie. Also, rumorsNOSTALGIA TIME!

A long back then, who never felt the dinosaur hype? This movie clearly to lit our nostalgic memories about that hype! All the cast from the old movies to the latest movies are perfectly aligned in this movie. Also, rumors said this is the last movie for Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard to be cast.

There are 2 main plots: a) the special kid of brilliant dinosaurs scientist, Maisie Lockwood accidentally hunted down coz she have special DNA; and b) Biosyn company that secretly develops illegal research about dinosaurs, their crop product, and gonna create unintentional global disaster. Ofc, both plots brought us to all the old cast and the new cast.

Nostalgia seems vividly can be felt. The screenplay looks like purposively creates nostalgia, especially the scene and the moment. The great cast also supports the greatness of this movie blockbuster. They are well-performed to give specific char personality.

However, the main cons are the ordinary storyline. Nothin great or amusing enough. Thrillin sensation or emotional moment? Nah-uh! Besides, every char seems just standard quality or nothing prominent enough. Maybe because they're trying to be fair to give equal screen time for a lot of great actors. Nevertheless, the visuals and music are just fine.

In conclusion, it's a good movie to lit our nostalgia for dinosaur phenomenon. It makes us more soothed as if we've passed a long-life journey coz we barely realized how long have been passed since the 1st movie of these came to us. Watch it or missed it, nothin' special but it is still good.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok, I just want to say that everything I'll be writing comes from someone who loves the Jurassic world and park movies. But even with that being said, my god, this movie fell so flat on its ass. Ima be real here, the movie wasn't terrible, it's watchable, and you can watch it again without feeling like your skin is peeling off. However, that doesn't change the fact that this movie was so mediocre. I'm only going to be focusing on the plot because the visuals are really good, but that's for like all the Jurassic World Movies, so it really doesn't matter. Now the plot itself has its bad moments. I think a perfect example is the oversized bugs. Why does this exist? Like really you could've made it anything else to even FIT the dinosaur storyline, but you chose bugs so they can rig the food system. How does this have to do anything with Jurassic World? This story plot itself takes down the movie so badly and puts a bad taste in your mouth. Everything else in the movie is alright, like stealing the young kid, which felt interesting for the most part, liked that they gave her more character, as I felt that was kind of lacking in the movie. Also, another problem I have with this movie is that it takes more of the approach of it being dinosaurs that are affected by humans, rather than the more interesting plot of dinosaurs affecting humans. Sure in the Fallen Kingdom they were released into the wild, but the movie did such a piss poor job of making them sound intense. Honestly, this movie felt like a massive slap in the face to people who loved the movies.… Expand

These dinos, we’ve seen them before and better. This kind of sequel is just spinning the wheels.

Some of the worst in this movie is in the casting. The villain is dressed up like Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, Inc. The thing about Tim Cook is that he is the breed of second generation CEOs that are not as controversial as the founding CEOs. All in all, a Tim Cook character makes for a boring villain.

Later in the movie, we meet a dinosaur smuggler who looks like a professional model. Despite riding in her old propeller plane and trading in dusty, desert markets, this smuggler always finds time to apply full makeup. Some of the dinosaur smugglers and scientists are also unbelievably pretty. Thousands of hours were spent making the dinosaurs look real, but mere minutes were spent trying to cast the right actors. The story itself goes from dumb to dumber. The move starts with a plague of giant Cretaceous locusts destroying crops around the midwest. This is supposed to be some kind of mystery, but these locusts are the size of a cat and farm groups would be up in arms over this type of devastation. (Never mind that these giant bugs would have trouble breathing in our lower oxygen environment.) Once again, the world is oblivious to an obvious threat and only small group of plucky heroes can save the day. The dinosaur fights have become stale. You can now watch a documentary on TV that has more realistic dinosaurs and dinosaur encounters. The dinosaurs all helpfully pause to roar before lunging at our plucky heroes. And of course no one seems to understand that dinosaurs are not bullet proof. (Jurassic World 4: Bullet Proof Dinos). I really could not stand how cliche this move is. From the mustache twirling villain to the dinosaur fights to the breakdown of the security that protects humans from dinosaurs. I hit fast forward through quite a bit of this middling effort. Writing matters. Details matter. A few Oscar winning actors will not save a movie. I hope this film series is now extinct.… Expand
