Accept it for what it is.

Rating: 5/10 (2 August 2015)

To create a film after the first 3 successful movies needed an angle and I have to say the one they created was plausible - well in terms of the far-fetched context we already accept the rebirth of dinosaurs in. What wasn't so was the ridiculous bond between Chris Pratt's character and the raptors, which has his buddy saving the day at the end by intervening when the Ty Rex was about to be dealt the killer bite. If you accept the film for what it is, an adventure romp written for teenagers thirsty for highly improbable action and minimal story cluttering the watch then it is enjoyable. However if you seek a grown up film or perhaps enough wit and story to sustain a parents interest whilst watching with the kids then you probably won't. Reading other reviews I have to say that I agree with those who hanker for the Jeff Goldbloom character whose sarcastic insight stitches the first two films together beautifully. I was, on the whole, left craving a story at the end and would even have enjoyed seeing all the characters gobbled up!
