a great addition to this beloved franchise

Rating: 7/10 (20 June 2015)

In the summer of sequels and reboots after 14 years we have the next Jurassic park film : Jurassic world and I am happy to report that this is a great film. The premise of this movie is set 20 years after the original Jurassic park and the park is now open as a theme park. With attendances down corporate decide they need a new attraction and after creating a new type of dinosaur it escapes and chaos ensues. Now I loved Chris pratts performance in guardians of the galaxy and in this film he proves that it is absolutely no fluke as he is great. He was his charismatic self with allot of humour and depth to the character which made him a really cool lead for this film. Bryce Dallas Howard is the head of the park and at the beginning of the film I didn't really like her character but I like the arc her character goes through in the film and by the time we are meant to care about her character I did. Now their are some awful characters in this film and the two kids are a big part of it. It's not the actors thats the problem it's the amount of time the story focuses on them and just the fact that there characters aren't interesting at all. Fresh from playing Wilson fisk in daredevil Vincent donofrio is a military villain in this film and it's not that his performance is that bad it's just that his plan is crazy and that his character is writ to be really cliché and it makes you to not care about his character. the creation of the indominous rex was a great villain and she really was a great killing machine for this film. Now one thing I like is that they make out that corporate is the reason for the creation of the indominous rex is that corporate needed more attractions was interesting and made complete sense. I also liked the character arcs of Howard and Pratt with also the undertones of the franchise kept in play. However, there are allot of side stories that I really did not care about and I think it takes away from the whole experience of the film. The script is great with a great blend of humour and drama that do flesh out some of the characters and make the horror of the situation feel real. A great part of the film is that the style of this film completely catches the awe and and wonder that Jurassic park had and use cgi to enhance the dinosaurs and make them feel even more bigger. The fight scenes are great and make the dinosaurs feel like huge attractions and prove that they are really the stars of the film. Overall this is a great film and I can't wait to see the eventual sequels that will definitely come with this film.
