Jurassic World: Dominion (2022) - Movie Review

[@charliejeffreyjames1078]

I saw it last night! I was stunned at the storyline. The ending of “Fallen Kingdom” essentially laid-out what the final act would / should / could be. The visuals were A-OK but I’m also tired of the nostalgia nods that seem to be the trend with all franchises (i.e. Ellie Satler removing her sunglasses in awe / Ian Malcolm once again waiving a torch in order to distract giant beast)… The locust plot killed me almost as much as it did in “The Exorcist II: Heretic” What did I learn? Stay away from locusts! They’re a sure way to kill your crops and film franchise! I’m actually heartbroken over this entry as it could have gone-out with a colossal bang. Definitely time to bury for a couple of decades…

[@icebergthegamer]

Don’t you think man Vs dinosaur in this day in age would NOT bode well for the dinosaurs?

[@gunnerbrickfilmz4231]

It also didn’t even feel like a JP movie at all , Jurassic world done an ok job with capturing the charm of the original movies and the other two just felt less and less like a JP movie , I left the cinema today feeling so heartbroken as I love this franchise and the last two movies just weren’t how it should have been

[@charliejeffreyjames1078]

@@gunnerbrickfilmz4231 Agreed! Way too convoluted and complicated where it doesn’t need to be… I’m heartbroken too. It’s funny because it’s also the 40th anniversary of E.T.‘s release and it feels worse for some reason. I think because gone are the days when these movies would come out and inspire / enlighten us so greatly! Instead they utilize the nostalgic originals as tools to grab us… I don’t know but I was very much looking forward to this final instalment and it fell short on all counts. I don’t get it…

Nah that will be jurassic Universe, or I've been making a fan script of my own which takes place between Lost World & JP3, it would take place around the illegal cloning operation done on Sorna in 1999, if you watch some of Klayton Floriti's videos you can understand the lore of that, but in that spin-off script it foucus on the return of Nick Van Owen from the Lost World along with a few other characters from Lost World & some new ones, there Lewis Dodson is on Sorna to steal dinosaur eggs for Biosin, in short this is a script that salvages plot from Tresspaser & Micheal Criton's Lost World novel, I call the story & script "Trespasser: A Jurassic Park Story". And while some people may not be a fan of some of the characters from Lost World, I promise that it may be pretty solid.

[@ChuckM0503]

I think what makes a movie like the first Jurassic Park so good is it's ordinary people in extraordinary situations. It's the same reason Jaws is so great as well. There's a certain level of relatability you can latch onto. As the films have gone on, though, the characters become more extraordinary as do the situations that keep getting ramped up more and more that they're just over the top and ridiculous. I mean, Chris Pratt may as well be James Bond in these movies, particularly the latter two. It's silly. The mind set that you have to keep getting bigger and bigger with each film is really a detriment to franchises like this. Especially now when people are desensitized to these big action sequences, anyway. Good, relatable characters will always make up for the lack of spectacle. Obviously you need spectacle in a Jurassic Park/World movie, but I'm of the belief less is more.

[@BrandonNielsen87]

Action movies do this A LOT. So many main characters doing things no normal human being are able to do. Almost every action hero is like Captain America now.

[@Lightman741]

Yes and the ridiculous Chris Pratt holding up his hand is just insulting. The first film built of fear of the raptors before we even saw them. Now they may as well be a cat

[@mania4270]

That's not what made it good. Jurassic Park was good because it had ground breaking special effects. Nobody watches that movie to see ordinary characters. The character work isn't that well handled. Jurassic park is the first mindless blockbuster. It doesn't make any sense, it's dumb, but it's filled with awe, and is entertaining. Let's not act like that movie is on the level of jaws, raiders, or ET

[@KB-bh9hp]

I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this, but if they're ever going to do anything with this franchise in the future, I think the best option is to take a darker, more horror centric route. Really lean on the horrors of genetic mutilation when it's taken to the extreme, of the fear of having to run for your life with death chasing you down at every turn. Maybe take the original Jaws approach where the dinosaur's are always there, lurking in the shadows, and you hint and allude to that somehow. Maybe with some clever sound design, and seeing their silhouettes darting behind trees as they get closer to you. Shoot the film like a Halloween film, and the dinosaurs are like Michael Myers. I think a 20-30 min short horror film shot from a first person perspective as you venture around the island at night would be terrifying and thrilling if done the right way.

[@x-ScaryBerry-x]

The book was much darker and had some genuinely tense scary moments. I would welcome an adaptation that’s more in line with the book as well.

[@KB-bh9hp]

@@x-ScaryBerry-x Exactly. We've already see the franchise capitalize on grand scale and spectacle. Would be nice for them to adopt a more intense, and tighter story.

[@rutgerdejong1660]

I would be all for smaller scaled, more intimate and actually scary settings where you don't know who is going to survive. The genetic mutilation can go away, that's not needed at all. Dinosaurs are scary enough. Look at the kitchen scene in JP. That was actually scary. Future films just need a very different approach. It's all about the setting, screenplay, build up of tension and suspence and most importantly characters that are well written so we care for them and that DON'T HAVE PLOT ARMOR!

[@beeking1792]

Ether they could remake the first one (which hopefully does not happen) Or they can do a spinoff movie of the Indoraptor from fallen kingdom, but I would try to salvage some of the plot from trespasser and incorporate it into a spin off movie.

That is SO MUCH STORY already. And we got NOTHING of that. Yeah we got 2 montages of 5 minutes in total at the start and ending, thats it.

That’s the movie. That’s all that matters. PERIOD. Anything else that is going on in the world is absolutely positively irrelevant. This is what happens when writers/directors/producers sit around too long in a closed room …drinking their own Kool-Aid. A cabin in the woods is safe? Would you have built that cabin on Isla Nublar or Isla Sorna? I think not. Most humans would be in underground bunkers by now! Hollywood writers have completely lost the plot at this point.

Simply put, the directors and writers were those kids that never had dreamt or imagined what it would like to be in a world of dinosaurs

[@chillout1738]

You should rewarch The Lost World: Jurassic Park and JP3. They are far better than any Jurassic World movie.

[@LD1E60]

I personally like Jurassic World better than those two. It was more straight forward and was simply more fun. The Jurassic World sequels are much worse than the Jurassic Park sequels tho

[@chillout1738]

@@LD1E60 Thats your opinion, but for me the writing, pacing, cinematography, and practical effects in both The Lost World and JP3 are better than Jurassic World.

[@o.a.5287]

Literally told my friends this as I walked out the theater. I'll take Jurassic Park III over any Jurassic World film.

[@JayDavisFitness]

I completely understand where you’re coming from but it worked for me. I wasn’t a fan of the lack of screen time for the Rex and the new big bad Dino. They just randomly hated each other at the end and needed to fight at the end for some reason. As much as I enjoyed this film I do agree with the Stream It rating.

[@bantuboi3131]

Im the only one who likes JP3 I guess. That Spinosaurus was awesome. I liked JWorld too. Hated Fallen Kingdom. Idk where I'll land on Dominion. I'm seeing it tomorrow.

[@CodyLeachYT]

I love JP3. It's simple and short but it's a fun movie.

[@thedoruk6324]

@@CodyLeachYT agreed quite the contradictary to both fallen kingdom and dominion

[@Trill_Tour]

This isn't as bad as Fallen Kingdom

[@thedoruk6324]

@@Trill_Tour it is still very bad and effects wise completely terribel

[@jacobcherian4384]

They should have made a Jurassic World movie with Spinosaurus vs. Indominus Rex

[@johnnyivan1977]

😂😂😂 you made me laugh so hard bro , greatest review!

[@wojosquad4680]

The dialouge was bad very bad, the villains were very bad, theere should been more dinosaur stuff but to be honest it was alot more entwring than the first two Jurassick World flims

[@jeremydeane7057]

I didnt hate it but it was certainly not what I thought it would be. If anything this is a setup to have one more actual good one. Personally I loved the other two Jurassic worlds and they just fooled everyone with this entry. There is no way in helk its the final one. The ending had no resolution at all. Honestly it was a corny rehash of previous concepts of Jurassic park. I knew Dotson was gonna get killed by delophasouras the second they showed the barbasol can. Yes it was a cool reminesant entry of the two jp and jw. But this can not be the end.

[@jordansweet8054]

I'm sorry if you've answered this before Cody, but I haven't seen the cut to rating with your score in a few recent reviews. Are you just trying something new? I honestly kinda miss it as part of your charm but fair enough if you're changing. Thanks for the review.

[@Lilmickcrocodiledundee0001]

The survivor plot on a island or wherever will always work. People say it's gets boring, I don't think so, guy's with guns fighting dinos will always work

[@Gray-weeb]

I need to apologize, although I kinda enjoyed Dominion (mostly for the second act), I reacted irrationally to this review. Although I still like the movie (kinda), I realize its flaws and understand the critique you gave. I am terribly sorry for my earlier comment though, if you don't know which one that was, it was the big one where I gave a giant rant about why Dominion is good. I deleted it so it's gone now.

[@defnosaj4294]

why don't they just hire people like you and klayton fioriti to write the script lol would have been leagues better

[@chyannaturner9110]

I totally agree,there were too many subplots and the jason Bourne chase scene was too much. It definitely had some good action sequences but didn't have the heart of the orginal.

[@Jacobcherryhorror66]

I was always be a fan of the old school Jurassic park movies… Jurassic world was also good!

[@jskypercussion]

I love The Lost World

[@gollum475dejong3]

Great review!

[@Mercfusion2]

The lost world was a pretty good sequel

[@Cinna316]

Fallen Kingdom is The Empire Strikes Back after this

[@travelinman]

I thought it was cool for what it was. The dinosaurs accidentally escaped again. Special Effects and action. Same recycled formula. Entertaining but that’s it.

[@thischarminglovehound2376]

There were dinosaurs in this?

[@travelinman]

@@thischarminglovehound2376 Absolutely!! I know it’s a shock right? 😆

[@Wrightgrlgnebd]

The second Jurassic world bored me to death and I had no interest in this movie. So sad as I loved the original and think the magic is gone with the dinosaurs just being out and about. The clone girl also annoys me.

[@Lilmickcrocodiledundee0001]

Just got done watching it. Been a fan since 93, glad they brought everyone in it but, some of the effects were horrible!! Seems like this can't be the end... So much more you could do with it. Better than fallen kingdom but that's not saying much. I need to watch it again

[@AaronJohnson-mo8rf]

i think if they Do another trilogy sooner rather than later, they would need to make the installments of the Later Jurrasic movies Good
