Product placement everywhere, terrible dialogue, plot, acting, characters, CGI (the dinos in Jurassic Park look better). The guy a few seats down from me in the cinema was fast asleep. The amount of people saying that this is good goes to show how much expectation has dropped in the last 20 years. We used to get summer blockbusters like Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, Braveheart, Gladiator, heck even Jaws that started the summer blockbuster. Now we get this, lots of Transformers, lots of Pirates and Marvel movie after Marvel movie. The standard today is a disaster. Expand

I have never written a review on MC before, but I feel compelled to warn people away from this film. Call it my patriotic duty, but, my fellow Americans, on the eve of our Independence Day, liberate your mind and stay far away from this film.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The dialogue was horrendous. but what can one expect to come out of the mouth of such highly contrived characters? The humans in this movie were only the fleshy vehicles we were forced ride in order to get to the CGI money shot at the end. Using mass amounts of crowded people as pterodactyl niblits was a nice touch.

If it's loud. mildly frightening dinosaurs in 3D you want while you suck down a family size pop corn and 64 oz cola to yourself, I highly recommend going to see this in the theater, if only for the last 15 minutes.

If you enjoy character development, story, and a symbolic musical score, or any kind of metaphorical subtext, please continue to wait for Stephen Spielberg to come back to the franchise (which he won't).

This really isn't a good movie, the best thing about it is Chris Pratt. Even CG on dinosaurs looks outdated. It's like the director had a checklist of things he had to put in a movie, and put them together with little rime or reason.

I'm a huge fan of the Jurassic series and anything dinosaur related. But this just didn't have the thrill, scare or heart stopper like the previous Jurassic park movies. You actually got to see gore, and death in the previous series so it was always a heart racer. But they made up excuses to cover it all up in Jurassic World. They took control of what was meant to be chaos. Raptors were always a huge fear factor in Jurassic movies, now they sort of just tell them to sit, stay, roll over. The scene of the pig escaping and the new guy falling into the raptor cage was a potential thrill, then the tamer came in and again, told the raptors to sit. Two or three people 'may' have died. The rest could walk it off. Had it been the first Jurassic movie in the series I've seen, then yeah it would have been amazing. But it wasn't so it isn't. Again, good movie, just didn't keep to it's own standards. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This Review is written in GERMAN Language!

Ich war ein grosser Fan der alten Jurassic-Park-Filme, weil es etwas neues, innovatives war vor allem mit den Computergenerierten Dinos.

Allerdings ist Jurassic-World nur ein flacher Abklatsch mit fadenscheinigen Begründungen um die Story überhaupt erklären zu können.

Der Film hat dermaßen viele Plot-Fehler und schlechte Erklärungen, dass man aus dem Augenrollen schon gar nicht mehr rauskommt... leider.

Ich zähle einfach mal die Dinge auf, die mir am ehesten auf den Magen gestossen sind und mich fast dazu gebracht haben das schauen des Films vorzeitig abzubrechen und nach Hause zu gehen.

1. Die Begründung aus den Raptoren lebende Waffen zu machen die man im Feindgebiet aussetzt ist so dermaßen schlecht, dass am ehesten die Waffenverrückten Amerikaner am ehesten verstehen, warum die Bemerkungen in dieser Hinsicht absolut schwachsinnig sind. Natürlich gibt es Drohnen die Höhlen erforschen können, es gibt sogar Bomben die extra dafür gedacht sind Höhlensysteme zu zerstören. Ausserdem wurde bisher noch NIE eine Drohne gehackt, zumindest nicht nach dem was wir wissen und vor allem, wie Drohnen funktionieren. Also keine Ahnung wie die Filmemacher auf diesen Unsinn kamen. JEDE Armee der Welt würde Drohnen und automatische Systeme die SIE kontrollieren einer biologischen Bedrohung vorziehen, da diese auf Dauer einfach nicht kontrollierbar ist, weil es wilde Tiere sind.

2. Als die Protagonisten feststellen, dass der neu gezüchtete Saurier "fehlt" , warten die Wildhüter nichtmal die 5 Minuten ab bis die Chefin im Kontrollzentrum prüfen konnte wo sich der Saurier tatsächlich befindet, mittels des Ortungs-chips. Nein, wir rennen in das Gehege in der Hoffnung, dass die Instrumente zur Anwesenheitsprüfung auch tatsächlich keine Fehlfunktion haben. Nur um ein bischen Spannung zu erzeugen und letztendlich eine Situation herbeizuführen in der der Saurier dann auch tatsächlich flüchten kann. Hätten sie "WIE JEDER NORMALE MENSCH" die paar Minuten gewartet dann wär der Film an dieser Stelle vorbei gewesen, aber das geht ja nicht...

3. Als die Schwester der Park-Chefin feststellt, dass sie ihre Jungs nicht beim Rundgang begleitet, fängt sie nach 2 Sekunden das flennen an... ich weiss dass es solche Frauen gibt, aber dieses Klischee hätte man wirklich sein lassen können und sie einfach etwas harscher reden lassen anstatt sie als emotionales Wrack darzustellen.

4. Dinosaurier sind immernoch gefährlich... trotzdem ist der Park so konzipiert, dass die Besucher mit ihrem seltsamen Glaskugelgefährt selbstständig den Weg bestimmen können. In keinem Park der Welt würde so etwas erlaubt werden, da Menschen, wie Dinosaurier, unberechenbar sind. Was ist wenn sich 2 Kumpels einen Spass erlauben und testen wie sich ein Dino verhält wenn man ihn mit dieser Kugel rammt, oder veranstalten ein rennen über den gesamten freien Park. So ein Quatsch.

5. Im Park gibt es durchschnittlich 15.000 Besucher. Allerdings gibt es nur 15-20 mit nicht tödlichen Waffen bestückte Aufseher um diese zu schützen... Mal davon abgesehen dass die Besucher auch unter kontrolle gehalten werden müssen durch Security und andere Aufsichtskräfte... zb. um Diebstähle und Gewalttätigkeiten zu verhindern, sind 20 Wildhüter für eine so riesige Fläche einfach absoluter schwachsinn. Unser Wildpark, mit Hirschen und Wildschweinen, hat mehr Aufseher mit RICHTIGEN WAFFEN, als dieser mit gefährlichen Tieren versehene Park... aus dem Augenrollen kommt man praktisch nicht mehr raus.

6. Die Park-Chefin (mit ihrer hässlichen Helmfrisur) lässt nur einen kleinen Teil des Parks durch absolut unfähiges Personal (zb. der Azubi ohne Plan von nix) räumen obwohl gerade ihr komplettes Wildhüterteam in kleine Teile zerrissen wurde.... und sie eigentlich weiss, dass NIEMAND mehr da ist um die Menschen vor der Bedrohung zu schützen. Wie wurde die denn Chefin von IRGENDWAS? Ja... hochgebummst, das kann man vielleicht anführen an dieser Stelle.

Ich könnte noch weitere Dinge aufzählen, aber dieser Film enttäuscht alle 5 Minuten von neuem. Sehr schade, ich wollte ihn mögen.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Jurassic World presents a tug-of-war where expectations are hoping to be met but are continuously resisted by poor writing and acting in what otherwise should have been a decent experience. There is enough awe to help mask a few of the underlying weaknesses that are difficult to ignore, but this success is short-lived. Before the motorcycle scene there were glimmers of optimism that this might be the decent sequel. But it gets much worse in an attempt to tie up a pretty loose plot. Ultimately, there isn't much to believe about this movie, even at the character level. About halfway through it's fairly obvious where the plot is going and this only makes things worse. Admittedly, it's hard to hate Jurassic World but it's even harder to take it seriously. Expand

The dialog and the plot are terrible also. Theres only one thing that I liked, the special effects, aren't the best but were decent. That's all, if you want to waste 3 hours of your life, go and see this movie.

Why did they make this film? Perhaps Ian Malcom said it best: " You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could,Why did they make this film? Perhaps Ian Malcom said it best: " You didn't earn the knowledge for yourselves, so you don't take any responsibility for it. You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now..."

And now.

Let me take you on a tour. The first thing you'll notice in JW are cliche stock characters: the woman so obsessed with her job she just needs a good strong man to make an honest woman out of her, the good strong man, the eeeevil, spoooky scientists, the money grubbing CEO......

Then you'll notice products. Products products products. Coke, Mercedes Benz, Samsung; at one point a child points out that a vine covered vehicle is a "1992 Jeep Wrangler..." because if you can't SHOW the product, you sure can have a child who inexplicably knows a lot about vehicles SAY the product.

Then, if you know anything about dinosaurs, you'll notice lots of mistakes. Like the mosasaurus being about 10 times bigger than it was in real life (the original JP took some liberties to make the dinos darker in shade than they probably were, but this movie is off the rails.)

Then you'll notice lots of logical inconsistencies. Like, after the Indominus Rex escapes, Bryce Dallas Howard's character is concerned that if they alert the crowd a dino is on the loose, the park will get closed. Are we supposed to believe that the resulting lawsuits from five peoples' deaths wouldn't shut the park down, anyway? Are we also supposed to believe that an ancient predator with a reptilian brain will just listen to Chris Pratt, because, reasons? Are we also supposed to believe that a military dude wants to steal raptors to use them in combat, even though they'd be unarmed and most wars are fought by drones, now, anyway?

Look, I didn't go into this movie with a bad outlook. I went into it hoping they might recapture some of the old magic. But this movie is all about loose plots with no emotional weight, big logical leaps, overdone product placement to the point you feel like you're watching a commercial, and to be completely honest, action scenes that are all special-effect with no exciting tension.

The cast do a passable job, there was some awkward moments between Owen and Claire that where cringe worthy and most of the comedy in my opinion just wasn't funny at all. Vincent D'Onofrio for what little screen time he had was the only stand out performance in the movie and did a great job of what he had to work with.

Lingering question left from the movie, how does a US Navy seaman end up training Velociraptor in the first place???

Alright, first few good things:

A bunch of decent action scenes.

That's it.

The movie is basically a collection of plot holes mixed with bad writing and desperate attempts to appeal to broad audiences.
It's not even about the dinosaurs. We just have one super-pimped dino that kills everyone and then a final fight where it gets killed. It feels like watching Godzilla, but less enjoyable.

It's just incredibly stupid. Chris Pratt, you better start appearing in some better movies. This is the second one, after Guardians of the Galaxy, that feels like only complete idiots could enjoy them.

Don't waste your time and money on that one.

TL;DR: If you like youtube videos of dinosaurs punching other dinosaurs in the face, this film may entertain you - if you can switch of your logical thinking so you don't go: "Wait, why ...?" or "Wait, what ?"
If you prefer a good story arc, good characters or or at least decently portrayed dinosaurs, you may spend your money better somewhere else.

After seeing it at XKCD, my expectations weren't high, but my friends wanted to go. Sadly, the film is quite good at expectation limbo.

Strong points:
- some good CGI, though often Jurassic Parc looked better and sometimes the movement didn't look like actual animals but more like gummisaurus
- If you like to watch videos of people in theme parcs, then this is for you; in the first 60 minutes, you have this a lot
- 1 characters I liked (Omar Sy alias Barry - why didn't he have more screen time than 5 minutes?)
- I liked the idea of the raptor-whisperer, though it became ridiculous in the last 45 minutes - action feeding on plot, destroying the sense of all former exposition

Weak points:
- The musical score - just copy from the first one! Instead 2 min of the original, most of the time mediocre, and sometimes so bad you notice ("And in the blue corner, Mr. T.S. Reeeeex *fanfare*)
- The plot is like swiss cheese (admittingly, the original one had some problems too, but often it was at least try to provide a reason and the pathing was so well crafted that one didn't wondered about the actions all the time)
- Dinosaurs are, literally, terrifying - they don't need to be concrete-breaking, camouflaging, suicidal gremlin-monsters. And though I can accept that a potentially social animal can learn how to use a door handle, but you get a headache when a giant turkey outsmarts 1 manager, 1 animal trainer and 15 security NPCs (ok, the latter nicely grouped together and used essentially pointy sticks = close combat weapons against a 10m dinosaur, I guess they weren't the problem)
- too many unnecessary (=emotionless) deaths of NPCs and small characters
- Spoiler: There is not 1, but 4 pathetic endings: one involving Mr Pratt having pink lip gloss, another one dino-dino-human-giant-water-saurier team work, with concluding imaginary hat tipping and fist bumping (it was only not in the movie because T-Rex forelimbs were too short).

If you want to read other reasons why I consider this one of the worst films I've seen in a while, you may read shadowsfall444, Alan2306, jblac02, ...

What could have done to make it a decent film even without better dialogue or characters:
- cut out unnecessary characters (parents, assistant, pig-guy, control room girl...)
- cut out unnecessary deaths
- cut out unnecessary side plots
- copy+paste original score
- portray dinosaurs with state-of-the-art science (you may make them smarter than a chicken, but give them feathers and don't let a nude eagle lift a cow!)
- 1 or max 2 endings should be enough (see the original)

I personally prefer JP3, and if it is only for Sam Neill acting. Would have given it maybe a 3, but some reviews just smelled like payed reviews to me, and I think the 59 critics rating is more to the truth.

The only reason this movie was half way decent was because the dinosaur action sequences were mildly entertaining and the overall message of the film was actually something interesting enough to think about. Everything else about this movie was terrible. The script was god-awful and full of flaws. The characters had no depth whatsoever and were completely static. There were so many unnecessary subplots that didn't add anything valuable to the story (e.g. the divorce of the parents, and the Pratt's character's romance with the Claire girl). Also, what was the purpose of the older brother constantly ogling at girls throughout the film? I know he's a teen and teens tend to do that but it didn't add ANYTHING to the film and is even more ridiculous considering the film shows at the beginning that he has a girlfriend.

At least the acting was half way decent. The last 10 minutes was the only thing entertaining. "Jurassic Park" is 10x the movie that this will ever be.

Even though 22 years later we both still know that the original is still the best, and that all of the sequels (including this one) are pretty meh.

It's got product placement up the yin-yang from every nook and cranny. I laughed several times at the "unintentional comedy" via bits of dialogue and paper thin performances that were very, VERY dumb. You can tell this movie was "Pre-vized & action set pieced" worked months before a page of script was written. You can also tell the age range of commenters with what they perceive as "deep or interesting" character wise simply from the limited knowledge within their posts. A whole generation raised on Bayformer eye candy crap with weak script writing...and it shows.

And while JWorld was an enjoyable B level monster movie and THAT's ALL, nothing more - just like Jeremy Jahns, Chris Stuckmann, and Rotten Tomatoes all rated it - it has several moments of Micheal Bay level stupidity in the script that folks are giving a pass on because of the JP brand and nostalgia of Spielberg's classic. But I call it like I see it. Jurassic World is just another pure cash grab action sequel, like the much hated Jurassic Park 3 was, and nothing was advanced for this same story told 4 times over now. Even the ending of JWorld was the SAME ending of the first film and the third film, except with MORE MORE MORE.

If you listen to Colin Trevorrow's interview with the Schmoes Know Movies crew, he even admits that the movie had to hit certain studio influenced beats while in production, and that's lame. You should be trying to make the best movie possible no matter what (and maybe Colin did try to do that as this movie reeks of many studio/producer cooks in the kitchen). So to me, the bar should have been set at making a movie as good as JP '93. Not "We're just gonna aim for barely better JP 3 and arguably on pas with The Lost World.

Not settling for the usual "Include kids because kids need to relate, include military and a divorce story because domestic audiences are familiar with these tropes, redo the final battle of JP '93 but add more beasties because more equal better" etc. One more thing. I did a re-watch of all three JP films and I gotta say that the visual FX in Jurassic World, in 2015, are really not that special compared to it's first two cousins. Also, folks rag on JP3, but at least Joe Johnston tried to make animatronic Dino-baddies for its 3rd act showdown with the Spinosaurus Rex & Raptors.

After thinking about the movie, a proper poster tagline for this flick should have read:

"Jurassic World: The Park Is Open, But Only Dumb People Are Invited...please buy Bose, Starbucks, Mercedes Benz etc etc etc products on your way out."

I like movies that are simple enough that you can just enjoy the action and just be entertained. This is not that movie. Even I couldn't forgive some of the irrational thinking and boring characters. Suicidal birds? Military raptors? Really????

Do people this silly, really think thatSomebody on something really stupid has made something else absolutely brainless. Where to begin? This film's absurdity doesn't even begin connecting every other synonym, describing the disaster seen. Do people this silly, really think that when making TV a franchise might cough up some numbers here? Entertainment often comes from a functioning story executing excitement throughout the ride invested, than we will go out and purchase, watching again. Not because somebody thinks hmm any braindead will buy into their brands.

What action and CGI? The action throughout this film was constantly repeated shown by that same Trex yawning. Seriously though the action shown, looked like some kind of 50's playdo. Otherwise those cave people in their thongs escaping from all of the other scary beasts. However those cave people often came from much better plots than this film's tripe.

Do us all a favour and think next time? If your making a Dolly the dinosaur clone just put a lethal kill switche inside of it's brain, popping when that beast even starts to show signs of escape. Not some kind of a tracker it can claw out? I mean dinosaurs just love scratching their heads, figuring all kind of ways to prison break and release all of the other most wanted inmates, the Pterodatyls. Wait the film gets way better when the cloned dinosaur was combined with every other venomous species of DNA, and it started communicating on Dr. Moreau's island to all of the domesticated military grade raptors, who were also trained as sniffer dogs for whatever drugs that these producers are using. Instead of it's DNA exploding from functioning like Platypus. Anyhow evil Dolly the Trex becomes leader of the pack, saying kill ze humans, hail your new cloned leader, quickly escape get some take away their are some real tasty humans. Although the raptors are all torn emotionally between their loyalty, seen in some kind of puppy love. RPG's have failed to kill any of the beasts. They decide to release a real Trex instead, for the Trex mating ritual of all the teeth and claws, even the little baby raptor decides to join in. Finally later Crocasharkosaur back flips out of the aquarium, impossibly, because it really should have been feasting on all the tourists previously., I mean evolve. I guess it had gotten super hungry becauce it was bigger with the fins that tried to evolve into feet, and any mosquitoes love the ocean salt, a home to all kind of amber. Finally the good animals have won, helping the humans escape their failed amusements.

Somewhere else glass balls stop thousand of tonnes of weight, because glass must be all kind of unbreakable. Rhinosaurs were only herbivores anyway, meaning they cannot see red. Anyhow our heroes walk on under, right on through earthquakes. A Richter scale with thousands of tonnes stomping and crashing would see people flying through air throughout that rampage. The human heroes like their dinosaurs counterparts were completely RPG proof.

Crichton knew that the park would never re-open to the public. Why did these producers think to franchise this stupidity? Stupidity seen in complete and utter devolution on everything else previous.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just finished watching Jurassic World...wow...what a steaming pile of **** that movie was.

If you are a fan of Jurassic Park and enjoyed that movie, like I do, do not even waste your time on Jurassic World.

The story was basically a rehash of the original, and the acting...I've seen better acting in old 70's porno's than what this crap-fest offered up.

As can be expected, the Special F/X were top-notch, but even that isn't enough to carry this poorly written & acted steaming pile of celluloid garbage.

Unless you have extremely low-expectations, or piss-poor taste, wait until this movie hits the $5.00 bargain bin at WalMart.

So I just finished watching it and I'm still actually in shock of how terrible this movie really is! From the miscasting, to the screenplay, to the storyline, to even the CGI effects...nothing is redeeming about this film! I mean, come on...it's obvious someone was a Julianna Moore obsession but as in Hollywood, she's to old for this genre so they put in a copy of her that can't act her way out of a paper bag. Chris Pratt, really like the the guy and think he's a good actor but not for this part. The kids, forget it cause you really do forget about them during the film. So save your money especially if you've seen or read Jurassic Park because it literally is a complete clone of the movie. I was waiting the whole time for the parks computer system to lock everyone in...shame on Spielberg btw. Expand

Sadly they weren't low enough. Every Hollywood trope was brought in in as the film progressed from one plug-n-play scene to the next: "insert moody teenager", "insert brotherly bonding moment" etc.

All but a few characters are actually likable, Chris Pratt's being one. The rest only frustrated me as being unoriginal cliches, about as relateable as a pack of soggy chips. I could only scream internally as each character flopped around on screen while Chris Pratt saved the day.

The only reason this didn't get a zero was for the 5 minute dino-on-dino climax of the film which was so ridiculous and over the top, it was almost worth sitting through the whole train wreck that was this film.

Maybe a re-cut of just Chris Pratt and his Raptor bros fighting dinosaurs will happen one day, and it will be a cinematic masterpiece. Until then, I would not recommend this film for anyone with a functioning brain

On thing I noticed right away was the two boy actors had horrible acting. The older boy acted like he had down syndrome, his face was just flat the whole time; The kind of look you have after you just played video games for a couple hours.
But it didn't stop there everyone else's acting was pretty bad. The story in no way paid homage to any of the earlier Jurassic Parks. We still get John Williams rehashed music which did not go well with the flow of the movie. The movie seemed entirely seperate from any of the other Juassic Parks because it was not believeable, the dinosaurs werent real looking everything was cged to death.

This review may be written all over the place but thats how I feel about the movie. The main role for female actor was bad. Female actor was sexist because it portrayed woman as the scared running woman we all know from the past looking for her hero.

The whole velociraptor whisperer thing was retarded. You cannot tame those animals ever lol.

To keep it short it would have been an okay movie if it was titled something else like dinosaurs and monsters theme park. With the Jurassic Park headline I was wanting to see something great being a fan of the original 90's movie. There was nothing great about Jurassic World other than I got it for free on piratebay and I gladly deleted it and threw the movie in the trash bin.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was so pumped to see this movie, got to see it before anyone else by purchasing tickets near a theater i live by a month ago, got to see it 5 hours early!

anyways, this movie almost had me walking out in the first 30 minutes. The acting was terrible from the girl in the control room *run it's in there with you!!!* like wtf? I seen better acting out of B-Movies then this 150 million dollar budget movie.

1.the story made no sense... militarizing raptors? hey wouldn't making robots be better suited? i mean you guys can prolly understand the common sense I mean with that comparison....

2.The raptors evidently are trained blood hounds after chasing a pig....

3. I-rex makes the raptors turn on the humans.... then 5 minutes later they are like FU** you I-rex HE TOOK MY COLLAR OFF! give me a break....

4. I-rex knows and understands thermal imaging and knows exactly when to set up a perfect trap....

5. the first raptor to die by the rocket.... first off why was their a guy on a hill, a quarter of a mile away with a freaking rocket ready to shoot a raptor.....

6. the raptor that turns on the I-rex and wins the day, didn't he get his freaking spine broken?????? and that slow motion scene of him coming out of the corner... seriously...

7. i'm surprised the raptor and t-rex didn't fist bump after I-rex Died

god i can just keep on writing and writing this movie was TERRIBLE

First, the movie takes way too long to get to the freaking point where **** goes wrong. Seriously we had 3 movies before we do not need the same character disposition and explanation of the dinosaur breeding system all over again. When the movie finally starts kicking it fails immediately because of the way the outbreak develops. I expected much more horror scenes in this movie where the dinos stalk their prey and everybody is like "oh shiii what shall we do were gonna die". Nope, instead its just plain simple running away, forming a plan and saving the world. Sorry but im too old to be able to get exited for this kind of bullshi*.

3/10 because of the really good but too short TREX VS Indominus.

I went into this withI don't know how many of these shining reviews are paid shills or just morons but let me give you an honest review of this movie based on my own perspective as a picky viewer that won't waste time or money on garbage. I went into this with extremely low expectations and I won't claim its unwatchable or the worst thing ever but this movie is seriously in the running for the worst JP movie and that says alot, considering how badly the 2nd and 3rd movies were picked apart I fully expect this one to be torn apart piece by piece by more thorough reviewers in the months to come. I know many reviews have already said this but the acting, the plot and the character development are all awful. there is no other way to put it, all the characters are walking stereotypes and there is nothing in the way of a Grant/Malcolm to try to salvage this with their banter, it's just good guys/bad guys and a bunch of rehashing of previous ideas with even less to hold it all together. The best way I can describe this movie is that it's not a story but it's spectacle on par with a circus act. A huge chunk of the movie is just showing off the park with its cgi crap and then a SUPER dino gets loose and causes chaos, that's basically the entire movie. I found myself rolling my eyes several times at both the 'story' going on here and the literally cringeworthy product placement. I kid you not there's a scene where the 2 brothers have just witnessed a dino exhibit and one of them says "wanna see something really cool?" and the scene immediately cuts to a close up shot of a mercedes benz(this close up panning outward shot of the mercedes logo happens at least 2-3 more times throughout the movie) and this is not the only example going on here. What's incredibly ironic is that the movie actually takes a shot at product placement in the first 30 minutes, using one of the minor secondary characters to mock the idea of corporations naming dinos and sponsoring the park exhibits. But even beyond the nitpicking, the real problem with this movie is the total lack of character development and the poor directing/acting which leads to a total lack of suspense in a movie that in theory is suppose to be suspenseful and frightening. By the time the last 20 minutes were rolling around I was thinking "this is almost over and absolutely nothing of substance has happened" right before you get blitzed by a big stupid dino brawl and an unsatisfying ending that is basically a copy of the previous endings but 'BIGGER'. Unless you're just looking for some Michael Bayesque mindless tripe to spend 2 hours on I highly suggest saving your money and go find something better to do. This is just another cash grab using an established franchise and doesn't deserve the money it already has and will continue to rake in. Expand

The only deccent parts are nods to the original. Expand

I'll keep this short.
This movie must have been written in between......
what I'm saying is... people were getting "favors"....
and people were giving out "favors" ...the audience.... zero "favors"

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie follows the exact same formula as the first movie: Expert is called to the park to give a green light to a particular aspect of the park, two kids are left under the questionable supervision of people who are not paying them any particular attention, and surprise! A large carnivore escapes and causes all sorts of chaos. The movie is bigger than the original: More dinosaurs escape, more people are in the park when it happens, and CG is overused with reckless abandon. Obvious nods to the first JP are milestones separated by groan-worthy story arcs (the two boys with the unhappy parents could have just not been in the movie and nothing would have changed, yet we're forced through awkward minutes of them discussing their parents' impending divorce) and are shoehorned in with such frequency that one could easily believe this movie is nothing more than a cash-in. Moments like these lead to one which took me out of the movie entirely, like one where the jeeps from the first park are made to run using twenty year old gasoline, oil, and batteries. Sorry, Jurassic World, not in this or any reality. The movie culminates in a grand climax that is ruined when a t-rex and a velociraptor give each other a 's'up bro' nod afterward instead of attempting to kill one another as they should have. This movie is potato chips: Everyone bought it but no one came away with any substance. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's absolute garbage.

Characters: They're all bad (sorry Chris Pratt, you're great in Parks and Recreation), and are difficult to relate to because they are all poorly-written and dumber than dumb. Constantly I found myself baffled at the choices characters made, which put themselves and others at risk for seemingly no payoff. It's impossible to relate to characters that make dumb decisions that the audience wouldn't make, even under pressure. They're not great, and the cliche portrayal of the female lead was not alleviated by a token show of strength (when she saved Chris Pratt), as she continues to whimper for most of the film. I hate to use the term "cardboard cut-outs," because it is so overused and here it really doesn't apply. The characters have clear motivations: Howard's is maintain profit and safety, Pratt's is protection of animals (which leads into a very corny message), and Military Dude Stereotype's is to militarise the raptors. It's just that they're so boring, and have been done so many times before. Also, no offence to the kids (and I understand that having them there is to include kids in the audience) but they seem to have caught the stupid virus, and constantly cause danger and put their lives at risk. People in Jurassic World have the self-preservation of Star Trek redshirts.

Product Placement: This is almost a deal-breaker for someone like me. It's cheap, and in a film marketed to children (yes, there were many in the cinema with us) it's just downright amoral. I saw Mercedes Benz cars everywhere, an obvious Coca Cola pitch with Chris Pratt (which looked as though cut straight from a commercial), and Samsung products up the arse: such as the "Samsung Innovation Centre." It feels like a complete cop-out.

Scares: Move along.

CG: Not very convincing, somehow less so than the first film. Very low standard, though with Chris Pratt in there, I'm not surprised how better graphics were not included in the budget (even with the countless product tie-in deals).

Story: Stuff happens, plays it safe and predictably. Pretty terrible message: environment good, science has gone too far, blah blah blah.

Overall: I enjoyed the film, especially taking the piss out of it with a friend. It's just so appallingly bad that it's sickly enjoyable, like a sweet pain. I'm being charitable with a 2/10, and if you want a better action film, see Mad Max Fury Road. If you want a better children's film, watch Inside Out. This film's sure not to win any awards (lest the good kind) and will be forgotten very quickly.

Nothing good to see here. A copy of the original movie with all the good parts removed and replaced with massive plot holes, terrible acting, annoying kids, product placement galore and dull dinosaurs.

It's bad when compared with any movie ever made.
The special effects were somewhat good and that's the high of the movie.
The script threw logic out the window.
The characters were hilarious bad.
The acting was awful.

The acting was sub par, and by the time I left to movie I couldn't decide if the movie was trying to be a heartwarming family film or gory dinosaur movie, because it wasn't doing either well.

Lowering score to 0 due to how many fake reviews there are on this site. I had initially given this movie a 5.

The dialogue was beyond cheesy, and only a few of the lines that were supposed to be funny were actually funny. There was product placement every 5 seconds, and much of the time it was very out-of-place, in-your-face and distracting from what was going on in the movie. There were lots of subplots that were started but then completely left hanging. The plot as a whole was just a jumbled mess of crap. Every character was very one-dimensional and poorly developed. I wouldn't say it was just the first story told again, but the things added were so poorly done it was appalling. I could tell pretty early on that it was going to be bad, but after about 45 minutes I wanted to leave the theater pretty badly.

I wasn't expecting a third sequel of JP to be that good, but this movie went leaps and bounds below what I would have expected.

You should have put 3 to 4 of the main original cast members in this movie. Google why the original cast members WEREN'T ALOUD BACK IN THIS MOVIE. What were you thinking? I have the answer. You weren't thinking. Game over, unsalvageable. Unless you can pull a rabbit out of your as*! The trailers work better than the movie. Too many flaws to mention. But I will mention 1 or 2. Earliest trailers included Ed Hammonds funeral. Remember him. The one to have the dream of Jurassic Park. The AW of Jurassic Park was great. Which made " Jurassic Park " so special to us 22 years ago. Jurassic World killed this franchise. This was to be a family movie, yeah right. This is nothing even close to that. This movie is nothing more then at best a B rated blood bath horror flick. No feeling of family here to be seen, except for the two brothers bonding. Watch Jurassic Park 1, Then watch Jurassic World. Then tell me which one gave you a sense of dreams, brought a tear to your eye and gave you a sense of family morals. Jurassic World has not one of these important values to surface in our days now that what we need back so desperately in our lives today, except for the two brothers bonding. This is what a life long friend of mine had to say. 1st movie she has seen in 22 years. Keep that in mind. Nancy Kraft stated on Facebook.
Mabel and I went to see the Jurassic World last night and were thoroughly entertained, unlike my friend Mark, that would be me. We must have seen two different movies. Either that or I am just starved for cinematic amusement. I don't go to the movies that often but I was totally enthralled with the film. I loved the CGI effects and the story was... ok. Thumbs up from me. I mean seriously, it only needs a one word review... DINOSAURS! My Response: Well my friend Nancy, got two thing right. Starved for Cinematic Amusement. And CGI was good. Movie never picked up. Where is left off. Never gave time to care about the actors. There is nothing wrong with agreeing to disagree. The trailers work better than the movie. Too many flaws to mention. But I will mention 1 or 2. Earliest trailers included Ed Hammonds funeral. Remember him. The one to have the dream of Jurassic Park. The AW of Jurassic World is missing.

It force feeds you the nostalgia from the first film in hopes that the goosebumps you get from hearing John William's will make you forget that this film has some of the worst acting, story and lacks even an iota of authenticity. I've never walked out of a film hating the people responsible for making it. It's a movie made by people who have no love of movies for the audience responsible for there being a Paul Blart Mall Cop 2 and Transformers 4. You’re better of trying heroin than paying to watch Jurassic World. Expand

Jurassic World is a laughable and embarassing disaster.

The director desperately tries to recapture the magic and feel of the 1993 movie but he just can't. Plot holes are ever present, but that's OK, we have been used to it. Acting and dialogue are mostly mediocre, and character development arcs are, well, where are they?

Let's go into some of the story tidbits then. A new hybrid dinosaur is created in the lab as a bigger T-Rex (named Indominous Rex), it can go into full stealth mode (can't be traced by thermal scanners LOL), it fooled its human captors faking its escape by leaving climbing marks on the cagewalls while it was hiding and waiting for its chance to escape through some open door/gate, and yet someone from the Army thinks it's a good idea to use it in military operations so he tries to safeguard it. Another seemingly good idea is the abundance of big carnivorous dinosaurs in a theme park where thousands of people are expected to joyously roam around while on vacations. Even stupider is the fact that after what happened in The Lost World (where a T-Rex escaped in San Diego and went into a destructive rampage killing people) there would still exist those who would trust a company to create a dinosaur-themed park and still visit it. But the worst of the worst is the funny idea that someone can tame dinosaurs as fierce as the Velociraptors and command 4 of them as if they were his pet dogs.

All in all, Jurassic World is an absolute mess. At least it is somewhat viewable as a blockbuster action movie and you can mindlessly consume some pop corns at home if you have nothing better to do, provided you are willing to accept many (if not all) of its sins. The fact that this silly movie became so successful at the box office and got much better critical reviews than Batman vs Superman is worrisome.

La connerie jurassique con-tinue avec cet énième épisode des aventures des dinos vénères dont un très gros très méchant issu de tripatouillages génétiques -et donc très intelligent- qui va mettre le souk sur l'île des connards. Bref, un airLa connerie jurassique con-tinue avec cet énième épisode des aventures des dinos vénères dont un très gros très méchant issu de tripatouillages génétiques -et donc très intelligent- qui va mettre le souk sur l'île des connards. Bref, un air connu usé et abusé qui tourne en rond -comme un con- et soigneusement calibré pour le grand public adolescent et adulescent : un peu de sang mais pas plus que ça pour éviter le R (Restricted) qui restreindrait significativement l'audience visée.

Des gogos se font bouffer ici et là mais sont vite avalés, ce qui constitue un gâchis évident de ce qui aurait pu être l'un des attraits du film, à savoir des bipèdes qui courent avant de se faire éventrer et déchiqueter par les grandes gueules en liberté. Hélas, les effets spéciaux (très réussis au demeurant), ça coûte du pognon et l'argent c'est cher, donc on reste très politiquement correct... et du coup on s'emmerde non seulement quand c'est calme mais également lorsque c'est moins calme.

L'action bien que filmée très correctement reste rare et compte à peine pour un gros tiers du film -en comptant large- alors que la distribution aligne son lot de tocards dont le Chris Pratt rouleur de mécaniques se fait le chef de file : autant dire qu'il est moins convaincant qu'un long pet dans la baignoire mais tout aussi "charismatique". Comme si ça ne suffisait pas, ils ont importé notre roi des cons à nous, Omar Sy, dans leur connerie et si on ne le voit pas beaucoup, sa sale gueule et son air demeuré font mal à l'écran.

On a aussi une petite rouquine qui ne paie pas de mine mais dont le 95C fait des merveilles ; on a bien entendu et comme d'habitude deux ados idiots (pléonasme) dans le lot, une espèce protégée qui ne se fait jamais boulotter par les dinos à notre grand dam. C'est protégé, on vous dit.

Le ridicule s'invite bien sûr toujours sans crier gare dans les conneries jurassiques avec ici des **** vélos apprivoisés et un T-Rex "gentil" qui sauve le monde. S'il pouvait parler, il te chanterait une chanson et te ferait même un numéro de claquettes parce qu'il est "cool". Ouais, donc, y a du "niveau" comme on dit, comme seuls les Yankees savent le faire... courage, fuyez...
