LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling

My kid loves dinos. Loves lego. Loves his Jurassic park sets. He has 4 years, so we would have to wait really long before we could enjoy the movie together. This gave us a chance to watch the movie without the scary scenes.

It's 22 min long. Which is really short - for kids attention span. My kid loves it so much he watches it twice in a row. So I think it could have been longer or in episode format.

Is it funny? A bit.

Music - from the original.

Animations - perfect.

Does it contain all the epic scenes from the original? Yes, but shorter.

If you don't have kids, just watch the oroginal movie. If you have kids, enjoy.

Why does this movie exist? I thought it would be a comedy, maybe a parody of the source material? But no, 10 minutes in and have yet to see anything resembling comedy. It adds nothing to the original. Ian malcom (goldblums character) was a minor character in the original but takes center stage here, flexing for the camera, showing off how rich and famous he is, and narrates the entire movie but fails to tell one singular joke. You'd think he would at least TRY to be funny. This movie seems utterly pointless. It just reminds me that i would rather be watching the original.

They retconned samuel jacksons death in the film, too. His character apparently lives to the end to be a hero who reboots the park. As far as i can tell there was only one joke in the whole movie; a dinosaur steps on a lego, and it happened 15 min in to the 22 min feature. Pointless.

Look this is made for kids because the first and original Jurassic park is very scary and a very smart movie that's about characters and not just dinosaurs .... Simple and this is a weak move ...

Where is the HAMMOND Prequel ??? !!!!

It's a beat by beat story telling of the first Jurassic Park. Some scenes are cut short but every memorable scene is in there. There are a few jokes thrown in every now and then making fun of the fact that they're Lego characters - such as when Alan Grant turns Ellie's head around, he actually turns her hairpiece around. Ha! The voice actors are not the same as in the movie even though Ian Malcolm does sound like Jeff Goldblum. You'll definitely get some chuckles and smiles out of this short Jurassic Park movie if you've seen the real one. I wish the scene with the kids in the kitchen was longer though. At the end, Ian Malcolm hints at a retelling of The Lost World. I really hope that happens!

Great short film for kids and for Jurassic park fans. It's not perfect but it's Lego and that what makes it entertaining. It's not the same voice actors but the actors still tried there best to perform there voices for the characters. Since it's Lego it's not accurate to the actual movie for an example they didn't show any death scenes for the characters and cut off swearing from the characters which is fine since it's made for kids so make it rated PG-13 as possible. Animation wise it's decent not amazing but not bad but still watchable. I highly recommend it for everyone especially kids who love dinosaurs.
