User blog comment:BastionMonk/Will Jurassic Park IV become a succes?/@comment-2221163-20130125204554

I was actually thinking of asking this as well. But I'd like to place my opinion here:

To be completely honest, I have a bad feeling that Jurassic Park IV will not do good critically. In the box office, it will most likely be successful. But I have a bad feeling that it won't go over well with critics. The strategy is to develop a very, and I do mean very good story that could potentially bring the series to a status that it can continue on in the future - or maybe they'll choose to end it, but hopefully on a satisfying note.

Of course, we all know that the first Jurassic Park was fantastic.. The Lost World was also decent, as was Jurassic Park III, and I find them both to be around the same rating. I enjoyed them both, but not as much as the original. If I were to choose over the two, well, that'd actually be difficult, because I think they're both fun to watch. But back to the fourth film, here lies the problem: name which good fourth movies there are (not including Star Wars Episode IV, because technically, that's the first one that was made). There aren't really any, are there?

So Jurassic Park IV will probably do good at the box office, but its critical reception is currently being threatened. That's my opinion, though.
