Review of Jurassic World (2015) by Darkly_Tranquil — 13 Jun 2015
Jurassic World is a moderately entertaining retread of the ideas of the original Jurassic Park clearly intended to pinch the nostalgia nerve of JP fans; for everyone else, its a bit of a mystery what the appeal is.
JW features a script with a lot of wooden dialogue, several subplots that seem to go nowhere (except perhaps serving as sequel bait), bland but functional direction and cinematography, hit and miss CGI, and generally across the board average to hammy performances from the cast.
Only an appealing turn from Chris Pratt as Owen saves the movie from descending into total tedium. Who knew a movie full of rampaging dinosaurs could be dull? Turns out, it can.
