Very Spielbergian

Rating: 4/10 (27 June 2015)

If you've seen Jurassic Park then you've seen the updated version with better CGI. Even though it wasn't directed by Steve, it smacks of his plotting. There are kids at risk, studly good guy, flaky damsel, money-grubbing owner and the evil security mastermind. Same as the first film. The animals were very life-like and the digital artists earned their pay. But what to do with these wonderful creatures is what drags this epic down. The screen writing and story were shaky and trite. As Captain Barbosa once said: "It does stretch credulity." There were too many inconsistencies throughout the film to list. However, the most disturbing part of the movie was when the research doctor and all of the embryos were airlifted out - thus - ensuring a sequel or four.
