Jurassic World: La colo du Crétacé

I've wanted a Jurassic park animated series since I was a kid, and am pleased to finally have one! Filled with peril and suspense! The only down side to me is the animation... oh what I'd have given for this to have been good 2D animation instead of the computer stuff.

I went in with low expectations since, you know, kiddy show. Was surprised far beyond expectations. *MILD SPOILERS* Wow this was good. The trailers do not do it justice. And those who thought there was gonna be no tension, no deaths, there will be 'surprises' to say the least. There are incredibly thrilling and blood pumping scenes with the Mosasaurus and Pteranodons, the characters are enjoyable, it expands on the lore, it has awesome subtle references, the music is amazing, and gives us a unique and tense Pteranodon theme, the arcs are well plotted, The animation on the dinosaurs is magnificent, the mood of the series is great. You can really tell Steven Spielberg had a say in the production of this thing. This is a kids show afterall though, there are some quite cringe worthy scenes, no new species, many dumb decisions, ... some unbelievable plot points, people giving a pep talk in the middle of a dino crisis (no pun intended), and then some stuff. Still really really loved it and the humour worked for me. 7.5/10; better than JP 3

Just watched this with my 3 year old son. We had a day on the sofa as we are self isolating and watched the entire series from start to finish!! Tense and fun all at the same time. Bought back memories of the original film whilst still feeling fresh. The dinosaurs are AMAZING and while there were some very scary moments it's a non stop thrill ride for 8 episodes. Excited for the next series already!

Camp Cretaceous is an amazing, fun, thrilling animated series which follows an interesting side story to the Jurassic World film franchise set in the same universe. The story starts off lightly and moves on deeper into the bigger plot with intense twists occurring through each season. Season 5 actually gets close to getting related to Jurassic World Dominion which makes the story more and more interesting with dino action being super awesome as usual in Jurassic films.

The main child characters bonding with each other as family through a really hard time of survival is a really nice way to make kids aware of how worthy good friends can be. Also, the story is very heartful as it isn't focused on showing dinosaurs as deadly predators but as nice living beings who follow a similar behavior of humans, protecting their own kind and stuff like that. This makes the story in Dominion more believable on how dinosaurs and humans can coexist.

Overall, this show is one of the best animated series Netflix has provided.

The dinosaurs and environment look great and are almost photo-real, and the young characters evolve throughout the series with an engaging story arc! :-) And best of all, the action is really thrilling with some real stakes! :-)
