Summary
Reviewers say 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom' offers impressive CGI and realistic dinosaur designs, with praise for Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard's performances and chemistry. However, the plot is criticized for being predictable and unoriginal, with clichéd villains and pacing issues. The film's reliance on nostalgia and references to previous movies is seen as detracting from its own story. Despite these flaws, many find it entertaining for its action sequences and dinosaur spectacle.
Featured reviews
Now maybe I am wrong ( and according to the ratings I must be) I thought this was the best of the series. Fallen Kingdom brought back the past and left us hanging on for more.
I have to say usually back in the days sequels are never as good as the first but Hollywood is doing pretty good making sequels and this one I can say was good enough for me. The first half of the movie explains what's gonna happen to the dinosaurs after the fall of Jurassic world and the second half is basically a dinosaur chase with terror. Somewhere in the middle you feel sad for the dinosaurs and what's gonna happen to them and you wish you could do something about it. And there is a focus on blue the velociraptor that plays an essential part to the story plot and why it's happening . It
Was fully entertaining, wasn't boring at all. And it was action packed
Like a lot of others are saying the first part of the film, where they are escaping from the island is great and quite exciting and sets the film up pretty well.
However once the major action scene is over and they have to focus on the main story things start to go downhill. I think what bothers me the most is that a lot of the writing is just lazy and not well thought through or truely creative. Instead we get more of the same themes from the original JP films plus some more from JW. (Mutant dinosaur + evil corporate guys)
All of the main characters stories are pretty unbelievable and there isn't enough investment in developing their individual personalities / backstory so we understand why they behave the way they do. Sometimes I feel like the major action scenes were thought up first and then the story was just sort of inserted between them as a glue so we have a way of getting from one action scene to the next.
If you go and see this film you will probably enjoy it and it will most certainly entertain you for a while but after the moment has passed I am not left with the sense that I have seen something truely groundbreaking. Unfortunately I can't help but compare it to the original Jurassic park film and consider how it doesn't even come close to the terrifying moments of suspence and the brilliant portrayal of the different characters we got in JP1.
Given that there are so many 9+ reviews on here maybe i am in the minority but I just feel like we are letting Hollywood get away with lazy writing, which contains numerous plot holes just so we can marvel at some cool CGI. We really should'nt be satisfied with this state of affairs. We should all be demanding better, more creative writing that continues to offer us something new and exciting. This will only happen if we stop rating these mediocre generic blockbuster films so highly.
Was it was entertaining? yes without a doubt, but this is nowhere near a 9/10 film and you all know it. When rating these films please be honest with yourselves and send Hollywood a message. Don't let them think that lazy writing is ok. We aren't idiots and we do value a well written and interesting story.

I give Jurrasic World Fallen Kingdom 7.1/2 out of 10 I enjoyed more then the first Jurassic World. I did not enjoy the Animal Cruelty but by the end I was happy again. Cries and laughs Action pact with great sound you would expect from a Jurassic movie . I hope there is a part 3 and can not wait to escape reality and lose myself in another 2 hour Jurassic world.

Did you know
- TriviaA cryptic scene in Jurassic Park III (2001) had Dr. Alan Grant and Billy identifying the Spinosaurus as a species not on the list of species InGen were known to have cloned. Alan ponders what else they were up to. This movie reveals that several species of dinosaurs were present on Isla Nublar that were not officially announced to be on the island in Jurassic World (2015) in either the movie or its tie-in material, making Alan's line just as relevant today.
- Goofs(at around 1h 30 mins) Multiple human characters are sedated with animal tranquilizers, with Wu specifically naming the particular narcotic used as carfentanil at one point. Carfentanil is extremely potent and has a lethal human dose in the micrograms, meaning any human injected with a dinosaur-sized dosage of carfentanil should have experienced a quick and fatal respiratory failure. Wu and Owen recover fairly quickly and suffer no lingering side effects. Because the tranquilizer is so potent, real-world veterinarians who sedate heavy animals like elephants must be accompanied by assistants who can administer naloxone (the antidote) and provide artificial respiration.

Owen Grady: [to Claire; joking] If I don't make it back... remember that you're the one that made me come here.

Owen Grady: I'll be alright!
- Crazy creditsPost-credits scene: Pteranodons are shown flying on the Las Vegas Strip.
- Alternate versionsThe Italian version has three scenes trimmed for violence before submitting the film to the local censorship commissions. These are: 1) T-Rex inside a cage swallowing a goat 2) Indoraptor swallowing the bitten-off hand of Ken Wheatley) Ted Levine and then roaring his hat off. 3) T-Rex and Carnosaur ripping in two the body of Eli Mills (Rafe Spall)
