If you loved Jurassic Park, go see Jurassic World. A worthy sequel

Rating: 8/10 (3 April 2016)

I was more excited to watch the long awaited 3rd sequel to my favourite film ever, Jurassic Park, than i had been for any movie in years. Being a little obsessed with dinosaurs from a young age, and the franchise as it swept the world in 1993, this movie was a big deal to me.
The movie has a different feel to the first three. It's obviously not Spielberg, but that's not a slight against it. I didn't find it as "dark". There is plenty of action, great characters and dialogue, and a lot of humour. I laughed a significant amount throughout. As with JP2 and JP3, unused plot was used from the two books, especially a big play on a plot line from the second book (carnotaurus camouflage).
I think the buildup to the deaths weren't as suspenseful as JP. The *spoilers* guy shooting and running into the indominus's mouth was darkly hilarious. There were more than a few homages to the original, obvious and subtle.
I loved every second of it. The score is not as pronounced, but is certainly there. The dinosaurs look ridiculously amazing. It is a Hollywood blockbuster, and so has certain predictable elements (more so if you know the films and books in depth).
If you loved Jurassic Park, go see Jurassic World. I'm biased, but I still recommend it. I unashamedly saw it 5 times in the cinema.
