Fun seeing high quality interesting CG dinosaurs. Better dinosaur variety compared to other films. The bad? The plot. How the humans behave. How the dinosaurs behave. To the point I believe no-one attached to the script has even kept pets. Gone are the days of researching how animals behave and basing dinosaur behavior and scenes on that. In this film most of the dinosaurs acted like that third henchman in TV fight scenes. The one that stands back and looks menacing until it is their turn to one on one fight the hero. Because the plot says so. All the good guys had too much plot armor. Surviving a definitely fatal plane crash. Holding their hands up at times got dinosaurs (untrained) to back off. Not bite that off. The dinosaurs also had a sort of plot armor. The kind often offered to women in action films. Hero can't kill/maim dinosaur. Only a bad guy or other dinosaur is allowed to do that. Sure dinosaurs eats humans and this one is trying to eat our hero. But with all the plot armor neither side is taking damage from the fight. So many times! It took a lot of the excitement out of the film. Lead to several bizarre and less believable exchanges. There was fun and some nostalgia to be had. But not good overall. 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.

Lots of action. More screentime for the original cast. One thing I noticed is that they had some animatronics, so that's an interesting choice.

At some point it felt like it was a bit too long, however this is the final jurassic park movie. Some things in the story felt corny and unnatural. I would've liked to see more of how dinosaurs adjusted to the new world environment.

Overall, it's not meant to be die hard serious as negative reviews are taking it. Still, it's enjoyable and nostalgic.

In the end I have to say that it didn't really feel like a 3D film. I only realized at the end of the film that I had 3D glasses on the whole time XD.
But the end product was very satisfactory

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I personally enjoyed it. It definitely Rode off nostalgia and fan service but It still was really cool seeing the old cast unite with the new cast. I went in expecting it to be really Dumb but fun And turned my brain for the movie and it was exactly what I was expecting. However the movie Dragged in the middle In Malta when it turned into an action movie for a little but picked back up in the valley scenes. The new characters were surprisingly likable too. A lot better than Jurassic Park 3 and Fallen kingdom and definitely on par with lost world in terms of plot with a lot more fan service thrown in. The CGI, Practical effects, stunts and set pieces were really Good too. Expand

The dinosaurs are just an after-thought here, shoved aside for a much more plotline. There is absolutely no sense of wonder and awe that made the original Jurassic Park an instant classic. I'd say this is the worst of the Jurassic Park/World franchise. Time to put this franchise to bed. Expand

In Dominion, we find out whether the dinosaurs, who were released into the world at the end of FallenJurassic World: Dominion opened in theaters this weekend. It is the highly anticipated sixth installment in the Jurassic Park franchise. In Dominion, we find out whether the dinosaurs, who were released into the world at the end of Fallen Kingdom, have been integrated into the greater society and what effect their presence has on the broader ecosystem. It’s been almost 30 years since we were first introduced to dinosaurs in modern times; but, six films later, are we still in awe of the scientific feats of DNA splicing and cloning? Here’s whether going back to Jurassic World is worth all of that anticipation.

Jurassic World: Dominion brings back Owen Grady (Pratt) and Claire Dearing (Howard), who are raising the teenage clone, Maisie Lockwood (Sermon). They are protecting her from evil corporate interests who seek to capture and study her for their own nefarious reasons. Also, Elli Sattler (Dern) and Alan Grant (Neill) are back to investigate a potential ecological disaster brought on by genetically modified locusts rabidly devouring the world’s crops. Then, there is Ian Malcolm (Goldblum) and Ramsay Cole (Athie) as fixtures of the corporation, Biosyn, which is at the center of all of these machinations. There’s also a dynamic pilot, Kayla Watts (Wise), and a manipulative CEO of Biosyn, Lewis Dodgson (Scott). Oh man, did I forget anything? Um… prehistoric ravenous hijinks ensue.

Okay, as you can see, there is a lot going on in Jurassic World: Dominion. It’s not necessarily complicated, but it is a lot to follow. These Jurassic Park movies always have a bit of an issue getting bogged down explaining the science of this all. In Dominion, they have to talk about genetic splicing and cloning and ecology, and it just goes on and on. Sattler and Grant are focused on stealing the DNA of these destructive locusts to prove that Biosyn is evil. Owen and Claire are focused on protecting Maisie from Biosyn. In a sense, it feels like so much is going on that there is not enough time for the characters to run and scream from the dinosaurs. That’s the unfortunate part if you really like that aspect from the original.

Despite these reservations of the plot, the movie does have its exciting parts. There are dinosaur chases through the streets, through the jungle and through the Biosyn facilities. DeWanda Wise plays a tough-as-nails, wisecracking pilot, who seems to be the most competent of all of our characters. She gets good one-liners and has a magnetic personality. Her presence adds a lot of energy to what could become stale. I’ll also note that the legacy characters of Sattler, Grant and Malcolm give exactly what you want. It’s like no time has passed at all. The nostalgia is very high and they effectively scratch that Jurassic Park itch.

Ultimately, Jurassic World: Dominion is an enjoyable, escapist summer blockbuster. The problem here is that there is too much going on and it doesn’t exactly all come together. There are probably too many characters that distract from the main attraction – the dinosaurs. Nevertheless, there are good dinosaur chases and exciting moments with a great new character played by DeWanda Wise. While I wouldn’t call Jurassic World: Dominion essential, it certainly is good enough for a matinee viewing, so get your bowl of popcorn.

A transformation of sorts was to be expected given how Fallen Kingdom ended, but I doubt anyone could have predicted as big of a reinvention as this. The Jurassic Park/World series has been rendered almost entirely unrecognizable were it not for the prehistoric monsters running around onscreen, and not because they are now living among everyday humans. Rather, it's due to Dominion's absolutely LUDICROUS storytelling.

To say the plotting jumps the shark here would be putting it incredibly mildly. The narrative reaches near The Asylum levels of nonsensical as it covers every outlandish sci-fi concept from women giving asexual birth to genetically modified versions of themselves, dinos that are trained to attack via a laser pointer, to mad scientists hell-bent on world domination (or its destruction). Why they felt the need to concoct a tale this absurd, convoluted, and undeniably dorky I have no idea, but it did leave me glued to the screen in a sense of delirious fascination regardless while it seemed the writers were simply throwing whatever wild idea they had up there next just to see what would stick.

The sheer B-movie ridiculousness of the whole thing will (and already has) turn many off on this. Especially since it's part of a franchise that initially kicked off with a bit more gravitas. Personally though, it didn't bother me much at all. That's because I've only ever really turned up to these to watch dinosaurs chase and eat people in the first place, so it's hard for me to fault a film offering that too much so long as the thrills are in place. And oh boy, let me tell you, they are. The body count is disappointingly low, but that was offset for me by the constant excitement of witnessing some never-before used species and the protagonists' near misses with them, like the glorious extended getaway sequence through the streets and underground black markets of Malta. I wish they had continued the globetrotting around populated cities throughout the entire running time rather than retreating to another isolated research facility/haven location in the second half.

Of course, Dominion also falls back on the modern cinema trapping of trying to get by on nostalgia pandering as well by bringing back the original three heroes of the 1993 hit and its first two sequels. Some of the resulting callbacks can feel a touch gratuitous, the main villain's death being extremely similar to Nedry's for example, yet their inclusion ultimately fixed my biggest issue with this movie's most direct predecessor by finally giving me individuals I actually care about to watch as opposed to the bland nobodies who have been carrying the show up to this point since its revival. The real stars however are the various 'saurs on display. I think a far too underappreciated aspect of the World trilogy has been its ability to turn these creatures from bloodthirsty beasts into complex and thoughtful animals capable of striking a chord with the audience. There are some genuinely moving moments with them such as a scene with two Apatosauruses in a lumberyard that hits with the same impact as when Alan Grant first saw that Brachiosaurus all those years ago. They even have feathers now for all you nitwits who couldn't let that go.

I won't pretend this is a deep, high-quality experience. It's dumb, turn-your-brain-off junk food filmmaking at its most overblown and preposterous. Pure, unhealthy garbage that if I'm being totally honest was a blast to consume. In ironically hilarious fashion director Colin Trevorrow made several conscious efforts to correct the various shortcomings of Jurassic Park III by reuniting Sattler and Grant, and once again establishing the T-Rex at the top of the food chain after its pitiful showing in that outing, but inadvertently made something fans will view as a much greater piece of trash. Although at the end of the day it'll always be a minor treasure to me. I recognize that the franchise should have never been allowed to reach such a confounding low in terms of intelligence and respectability. I guess I'm just easily pleased by cheap spectacle, the amusing comments of Ian Malcolm, and the stunning CGI sight of my favorite animals as a child (and probably still now).

I don’t care to undertake the labour of remembering Jurassic World: Dominion in the detail that would necessitate writing a proper review, so I’ll just say this: I am haunted by how bad this movie is. It’s so inept my jaw was on the floor at times. It’s somehow worse than the sum of its parts - and all of its parts are terrible. Seriously, anyone with a rudimentary film knowledge could point to any facet of this movie’s production and say what doesn’t work about it. I really hate giving a 1/10 - it just looks like I’m review bombing. But I’m not. Truly, my hand is forced by the fact I cannot think of one single thing in this film that worked. This film is miraculously bad. For years, the worst of the huge budget franchise sequels have been so over-marketed, so deliberately “safe”, and so focused-grouped to death that they often have no soul (i.e. a Transformer or Caribbean Pirate). This movie made me realize how good we’ve had it with all that. It had me longing for a Rise of Skywalker or a Justice League. Because this is bad in a way you don’t see very often these days. It’s actually risky to be this bad. It might seriously kill the franchise to be this bad. But what’s keeping me awake at night is: studios know this. Universal knows this. So how did Dominion even get released in this state? How did the producers sign off on anything that was happening here? How does this happen?

Case in point: the one thing you would not expect from a movie with this budget is that it would look cheap. Right from one of the first VFX shots, with hadrosaurs (I think) running in the snow, something is noticeably off - it looks ropey. And it doesn’t get better. This is a $200 million+ 2020s movie that has the best visual effects of 2005. Worse still, even the practical effects - the dino animatronics - look plastic, nowhere near the level of the triceratops in the original movie. That was made 30 years ago. And that’s just the part that money CAN pretty much solve. Baffling.

I’m only going to say one more thing. And it’s for Colin Trevorrow and the other writer, on the very remote off-chance they’re torturing themselves by reading these reviews. And I can’t believe I have to say this, but for reasons unnatural - perhaps supernatural - the studio didn’t, so I will: guys. Jurassic Park is about DINOSAURS. DINOSAURS, guys. NOT insects. Giant flying insects is a different franchise. This one is dinosaurs. Thank you.

I loved seeing all the characters in one movie - Dr. Ellie Sattler, Dr. Alan Grant, Ian Malcolm, Claire, Owen and Maisie, as well as a few others we have already met and some cool new characters. There are basically two plot lines, each one involving either the Jurassic Park characters or the Jurassic World characters. Their individual missions coincide at the same place at the same time.

The original Jurrasic Park was a bunch of really well-defined characters that we learned to care about being stuck in a horrible situation. The drama came from caring about those people and wanting them to make it out okay. This movie just skipped that part and went right for CGI dinos and forgot to actually flush out the characters. Without a protagonist or moment in the story where I could get to know and like the characters, it's really hard to give a %#$@ if someone is about to die. When I walked out of the theater I said it was like Star Wars Episode 1 was made for Jurrasic Park, that bad. There were some well-done moments that were good nods to the original but the story was an absolute mess. There was absolutely no protagonist, no attempt to help guide the viewer through the story. The character development was absolutely terrible, there were plot holes you could park an aircraft carrier inside, and so many moments that I wondered if they were even attempting to have a believable story. If I was 8 I am sure that I would have been very excited about the poorly CGI'ed dinosaur scenes but unfortunately, I am an adult who actually saw the first movie and this is a very poor way to end such an iconic story line, with a script that should have been a first-round draft.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An anticlimactic end of a legendary era.

This movie sucks.... uninteresting plot, too many over the top action scenes were not necessary for a dinosaur movie, enough with the stale overplayed tropes with stubborn **** teenage girls who won't listen and ruin everything, bad pacing and bad choice of plot... lotuses???? Really??? Get real....bad cheesey dialogue, CGI was a step down from Jurassic World, dino boss was super lame, not enough Dinosaur.....in a DINOSAUR MOVIE!!! There's a lot more to say but just save your money and go watch Doctor strange or something else.

What a pathetic end to a legendary franchise that deserved a proper send off. I hope it get rebooted 10 years down the line with better direction, better vision and more love.

Great movie overall. Awesome to see the original cast back as well. They were well woven into the story. The thrills and action were entertaining and visuals were stunning.

Had a really good time with this movie. OG cast was great. Dinosaur effects were awesome as well. Really enjoyed Claire and Kayla in this movie. Overall thought it was a pretty good movie with some flaws revolving around the story.

I had no problem with the editing either and the pacing was alright. The world felt lived in. No problem with the plot whatsoever. It's a world with dinosaurs in it - and the story takes place inside that world. I definitely recommend seeing it on the big screen with great surround sound. Also great use of stereo 3D. It is a popcorn flick for sure. Many Action sequences, and characters with plot armor. But that is something I was used to by the other Jurassic World movies. Dialogue was not THAT annoying. I mean, there were two times I rolled my eyes and thought WTF, but it didn't sour the whole scene. All in all, I think, if you enjoyed the other JW movies, you'll have a great time. Just don't expect it to be Jurassic Park - that movie is a classic. Expand

Bringing an end to the Jurassic era that began way back in 1993, it’s full of nostalgia and covert (and not so covert) nods to the original Jurassic Park.

Bringing back original cast members Sam Neil, Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum to join original Jurassic World cast members Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard and Isabella Sermon is a master stroke, and seeing them all together on screen again just feels right in a film that serves as a finale to the Jurassic era. Admittedly the dialogue is forgettable and cliche at times, though there are plenty of humour and classic lines throughout too - Goldblum’s Ian Malcolm serves up the majority of these, and they never fail to raise a smile.

Of course, the dinos are the main feature, and to see them in our own world for the first time is both surreal and at times a little jarring, a fantastic chase scene set in Malta with Chris Pratt’s Owen Grady taking centre stage is a particular highlight, but you will feel exhausted by the end of it, and a tense scene with Bryce Dallas Howard’s character Claire later on set in the jungle will leave you exhausted but in a completely different way. Again, it’s tense and exciting, with just the right amount of fear, just like a Jurassic movie should make you feel.

I’ll not spoil the plot here, you could argue it’s slightly too long. It’s never boring however, as long as you don’t take it too seriously and just go along for the ride. Spectacular action sequences litter the film over its two and a half hours, and with plenty of emotional punches, slightly grim humour and endless nods to previous films (some obvious, others not so).

Overall, I feel Dominion is an excellent end to the series, and a positive step up from the disappointment of Fallen Kingdom. Dinosaurs, screaming and scares aplenty - 8/10

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.

85/100

Dominion is criticised for its meshing of two separate plots together and whilst I agree that there was too much preparation for the merge of the stories, I don’t see it as a huge problem with this film. For me the worst part about the film was the soundtrack, a lot of the music just seemed off. And a few sloppy lines of dialogue from the actors/actresses are noticeable but apart from that, I found this movie pretty fun and interesting.

It’s not what people expected from this ‘finale’ but I like the idea and the direction they went for this movie. The characters feel right for the movie. Franklin's character was hugely improved, as was Claire. Maisy is hit or miss but I was fine with her portrayal and the new characters, especially Ramsey were great.

As for the dinosaur scenes, I think the vast increase in new dinosaurs was awesome! Lots of Giganotosaurus action which was great to see, and even Rexy got some good screen time. It’s a shame they cut the prologue to this movie, but the film is quite long so it is understandable, maybe they’ll have some more deleted scenes on the DVD release. Both the VFX and the Practical effects are well done, for the most part, you won’t notice any of the lesser quality CGI unless you really slow the movie down and this is just not fair to criticise because why would you slow down a fast-paced action scene to .25 of a second.

Overall, this film will divide opinions, I know many aren’t pleased with the film, especially critics. This is the first Jurassic movie since JPIII that attempts something that isn’t a complete remaster of an already produced story. I think that this movie is good, it has flaws but it’s better than fallen kingdom (a movie I actually enjoyed) and for that, it ranks as my third favourite movie of the 6, and it is certainly a fun movie to watch, I disagree with it being labelled as 'boring'.

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

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

It's good the old cast are returning, but it's a bad film if it depends on nostalgia and old actors. There are too many protagonists and unnecessary side characters. Dodgson was there - and nobody cares. He was easily the worst villain in jurassic park franchise. He had no any real motivation and goals. I don't even get it - how did he earn that much money? What did he want? Build a park or dinosaurs? Or become a monopoly of the food industry? 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.

It has little to no stakes, spends most of it's time focusing on things the audience doesn't careFor the abundant strengths this films has on display around the score, visuals and physical dinosaurs, it's biggest weakness is it's story. It has little to no stakes, spends most of it's time focusing on things the audience doesn't care about and comes off as a fanfiction story with a high budget. Expand

Not a complete disaster like the last one, but still very generic and disappointing. The story is awful, and the way the old generation meets the new one feels forced. There are two or three big moments, and it's a joy to see the old gangNot a complete disaster like the last one, but still very generic and disappointing. The story is awful, and the way the old generation meets the new one feels forced. There are two or three big moments, and it's a joy to see the old gang together — Jeff Goldblum nails it again as Malcolm —, but the movie relies on exposition and pointless sequences to get to a lackluster ending. The thriller aspect of the original is completely gone, but at least we got a chance to see some practical dinosaurs again. Expand

If you can describe this film in 3 words it would be long, boring and generic. Go if you are passionate about this franchise otherwise don't waste your time and money.

I enjoyed the movie overall. The actions scenes were well made and I really enjoyed the final act as well and the scenes in Malta. It was great to see the OG cast again who were woven into the plot pretty well. Claire and Kayla were standoutsI enjoyed the movie overall. The actions scenes were well made and I really enjoyed the final act as well and the scenes in Malta. It was great to see the OG cast again who were woven into the plot pretty well. Claire and Kayla were standouts for me. I also enjoyed Maisie a lot more in this one as well. As a fan of the novels I was happy to see Biosyn and Dodgson return. On the negative side the plot was sorta all over the place, it just okay nothing spectacular. I feel like the first act was sorta weak. The movie could have delivered more on the Dino’s in our world theme as well. Overall while not the best in the franchise I was entertained throughout. Just don’t go into this movie with super high expectations and I’ll think you’ll have a good time at the theater. The people in my theater seemed to have a good time and the kids really enjoyed seeing the dinosaurs when they were on screen. Expand

The movie was fun! Lots of callbacks.. Heavy nostalgia to Jurassic Park.... Some parts felt unnecessary.

In my opinion, the critics were too harsh on it The first half was a bit slow. Overall I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 In my Jurassic

Dominion still has enough going on to keep it both exciting and fun for audiences. The film’s successful marriage of hardcore nostalgia and new challenges works in its favor, and I can’t wait to see what the franchise does next.

While it can be considered a reasonable improvement from the previous installment of this franchise, "Jurassic World Dominion’’ still fails somewhat miserably to wither off its ever-so-present DNA of bad writing and dialogue.

It offers some significant ballistic action paired up with a hint of tension sprinkled around for good measure. The plot is... plain and dry and revolves around an unnecessary device to give us a reason as to why our old crew is being put back into the mix. The visual aesthetics and the typical JP level of CGI and practical effects are a sure treat to an individual who enjoys a bit of "eye candy," but that alone cannot save this movie.

This movie is without a doubt the least "Jurassic Park-like film" in the whole saga. It’s certainly not the worst, but it does not offer the decent amount of creativity or imagination that some of its prequels had. This movie barely clears the extremely-low bar set by the World Trilogy. However, you may still, unfortunately, leave the theatre with a bit of a headache.
