Jurassic World served up a remix of Jurassic Park, and it remains arguably the most satisfying and rewatchable installment in the franchise since the first film.

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.

... 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]

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 28, 2023

The visual spectacle, the dinosaur fights, the theme park environment all work to immerse you in a really cool setting. It’s too bad the underwhelming story, narrative hiccups, and bland characters drag it down to passable but forgettable levels.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 22, 2022

It’s sharp, well-made, knowing entertainment that’s also the first sequel worthy of the original masterpiece.  

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 9, 2022

The action-adventure comedy still has its fair share of missteps, but in the context of the Jurassic Park saga, it remains one of the few popcorn films to deliver on its blockbuster promise.

As far as Jurassic movies go, this isn't Jurassic Park, but it never had to be. The film is a reverent, effective follow-up to a classic. That, folks, is what we call no small feat.

As I watched the really neat digital dinos chase people around, the scenes that resonated most with me were the ones that took place in the park's laboratory.

This is the first sequel to do the original Jurassic Park movie any real justice...

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 4, 2021

Several sequences of dinosaur carnage are expertly crafted and thoroughly entertaining, even if they're repetitive of previous entries in the franchise.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Dec 4, 2020

It's easily the best of the sequels, but it certainly falls short of the original's sense of surprise and spontaneity that marked the original.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 13, 2020

Whilst it will never touch the greatness of the original and shamelessly predictable, Jurassic World is a positive entry in the franchise.

If you squint really hard, you might find this to be good old dumb fun. But honestly, how long can you do that before getting a headache?

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Jul 15, 2020

Clumsy, full of flat, dead-eyed characters, and is an obvious cash grab. But somehow none of that matters when there are rampaging dinosaurs on screen.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Jul 5, 2020

Overall, Jurassic World delivers. It's everything you probably want or expect from a summer blockbuster sequel. It's still scary when it needs to be, funny when it tries and a worthy continuation of the story.

Yes, I said it. "Jurassic World" SUCKED! What the hell was I missing?

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 11, 2020

The production flirted dangerously with the "video game phase" syndrome that had done so much damage to the previous two installments of the franchise. [Full Review in Spanish]

Once again MacDonald's cinema at our service: fast consumption and instant forgetfulness. [Full Review in Spanish]

It was very cynical, which bummed me out.
