Another late-for-the-party review: Jurrasic World.

Posted by free.ranger on November 2, 2015 at 07:10:46:
This one is currently being offered as a primo selection on Comcast's pay-per-view, so I checked it out for the $6 fee.

I like dinosaurs and people getting eaten as much as the next guy, but this one is a rip-off, pure and simple. The entire premise is bogus. After the first three Jurassic types, it was very well established that the experiment and Disney World capitalist venture were ill-conceived ideas based on greed and poor judgement. The island was closed and placed off limits.

Two decades later, some schmuck who didn't get the memo is redoing the whole thing again. This time with more emphasis on the Disney-fying, and as would be expected, the military's eyes start to glaze over and their drooling about monster weapons begins.

No one in this flick shows a lick of common sense, and all are whacko aberrant personalities. Except the character of Chris Pratt, no one has any perspective about anything. Even level-headed Pratt is in the really stupid role of a dinosaur cowboy. And as in the previous movies, there are kids who skate through the entire people-eating disaster. Tired stuff. At least they didn't squeal.

It ends in disaster as the other flicks did. That's not a spoiler. How else can it go?

Horrible acting from most players. Horrible premise for the movie. Stoopid characters throughout. Same old save-the-children theme. See it for the dinosaurs, only if you like that stuff, which are shown anthropomorphized. They get names, have personalities, and can do tricks. Before they eat.
