No Rating is High Enough

Rating: 10/10 (13 June 2015)

This movie is absolutely amazing. I went into it with sky high expectations and walked out feeling completely satisfied.
In this film, Jurassic World is a fully functioning theme park, bringing in 20,000 tourists daily. In an effort to spike attendance with a new attraction, Dr. Wu (BD Wong) creates a new kind of dinasaur, the Indominus Rex. This dinosaur is literally what nightmares are made of, a combination of intelligence and force makes it a truly terrifying thing. Needless to say, upon a safety inspection of the "cage" that it's held in, the creature escapes and brings havoc all over the island.
I personally love the casting of this movie. Chris Pratt (for all those who still doubted his leading man capabilities) plays the trainer of the raptors, and he has clearly perfected this part. Bryce Dallas Howard plays the uptight, financially minded business woman and plays it to a tee. Vincent D'Onofrio plays Hoskins,the "villian", aside from the dinosaur of course. He plays this part so well that I was anticipating his death scene from the second I saw him, and when it happened I almost started cheering. The 2 kids, Gray and Zach (Ty Simpkins and Nick Robinson)created child characters which I actually found to be very likable. Irrfan Khan plays Simon Masrani, John Hammond's successor and also a bit of a John Hammond-esque character. BD Wong plays Henry Wu, and I love the choice of bringing on and actor from the original. And to wrap it up, Jake Johnson, Omar Sy, Lauren Lapkus and Katie McGrath excel in their more minor roles.
The visual effects in this movie are absolutely astonishing. The Indominus Rex is absolutely terrifying and the other dinos look incredible. Isla Nublar, as per the last movies, looks incredible.
The violence and fighting blew my mind. The "final battle" had so many twists and turns with the Indominus, the raptors, T-Rex, and a short but oh so important appearance by the Mosasaur kept me on the edge of my seat because I never knew what was going to happen next.
Overall I'd say that this movie gets a 15/10.
