Review of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) by Jonathan S — 23 Jun 2018

Stupid is an apt description for Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. Man that was dumb! This couldnt have been anything but a first draft! The first act on the island is horribly rushed beyond belief, and the charcters are all just awful; I hoped one character in particular would get eaten, and everyone who did totally deserved it; no shock value whatsoever.

The most I can say for it is the director (whose previous works I have immensly enjoyed) successfully recreates the tension of the kitchen stalking scene from the first film by completely ripping it off! This movie is just a mess throughout and clearly an unpolished product.

As Dr. Malcolm says in the first movie "before you even knew what you had you packaged it and patented and now you're selling it!" That is very much so here. The Jurassic Park franchise has reached a new ironic low.
