Critics Consensus

Jurassic World can't match the original for sheer inventiveness and impact, but it works in its own right as an entertaining -- and visually dazzling -- popcorn thriller.

Shadow and Act

Jurassic World is a visually striking thrill, packed with enough adventure to leave even the most cynical 21st century viewer in awe. Though the storyline itself brings little originality, its cheesiness is oddly endearing.

The whole thing is an elaborate fantasy, so it seems a bit churlish to say, "that's not believable!" But even a film like this needs some internal logic.

Rated: 2/4

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Just as the dictionary definition of "spectacle" states, the blockbuster is unusual, notable, and entertaining in an eye-catching, dramatic, and very public way. It is big, loud, and dumb, but, hot damn, it sure is fun.

Rated: 4/5

... a lot of fun, part mindless two-hour theme park ride, part self-aware sequel where supposedly smart people make a cascade of bad decisions.

Jurassic World lacks heart because everything happens on the same level of fast-paced, forgettable entertainment. [Full review in Spanish]

The Easter eggs and hat tips back to the original are what makes this watchable. But training and taming velociraptors? Really?

Jurassic World 1 is my favorite movie of the saga, a masterpiece, the best movie of the all movies of dinosaurs. Indominus Rex is a fantastic villain and This Movie, is the first chapter of the saga I see in theaters

Jurassic World - 9/10. Jurassic World returns us to the world of Jurassic Park after a 14 year gap between the last film. Returning the setting to Isla Nublar, the island from the first film, the movie also returns itself back to its roots with a similar idea to the original film. This time, however, the park is functional and has been for a while, with tourists coming in round the clock. To help bring more guests, they introduce the idea of creating a genetically modified dino, which ends up running havoc throughout the island. Along with all of this, there is a subplot of using the dinos for possibly other reasons (mainly, for weaponry). I love the JP franchise and as a fan, I loved Jurassic World. It follows in tradition, but also makes its own path with extravagance. The film smartly comments on commercialization and the moral dilemma of playing god, just like the previous films did. Colin Trevorrow does a great job in rebooting the franchise for modern day audiences, while also connecting with audiences of the originals. He expertly inserts nostalgia, but not to the point of overshadowing the big picture ideas he has for this new trilogy. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are great as the new focal points for the franchise, infusing their own style and swagger into a franchise already filled with iconic characters. And for Michael Giacchino, his music is wonderful and really creates its own twist and furthers the themes created by the legend John Williams. Overall, the movie isn't better than the first film, but its still a fun movie and a smartly done summer blockbuster.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
