I liked the movie. The theatre was still full on the second day showing. To be honest, the appearance of kids kind of ruined if for me. Just why does there have to be kids in everything? The kids in the first one were very relatable and I liked them and wished them to survive. The kids in here? Holy crap, just get eaten. Especially the older one. The music did do anything to draw me in. It wasn't dark or anything. In fact, I don't really remember hearing any during the movie. Possible theatre involvement I don't know. A lot of the characters I could care less about except Owen and his friend (the black guy that didn't get killed for once). Masrani was just a total dumbass and died the way he should. Vic was the same. I still don't have a solid opinion of Claire yet. Her assistant wasn't in the movie long enough for me to care once she died. The "super troopers" in this movie was just so hilarious.

Okay, for the dinosaurs. I enjoyed them more than the humans. I-Rex was lame. So what it was smart? Though, I did like the camouflage it did in certain parts. That was neat. Again, why do I care about a dino that dies in the first movie it's shown in? The mosasaur was my favorite despite not being on screen for more than a minute. I will always love the dangerous sea life back in the day. The way the raptors were portrayed in this movie, even I wouldn't be scared of them. It was horribly sad when they all, save for my fave Blue, died. I mean damn, one exploded! The other dinos were meh. The cgi-puppetry failed in some places. The long necked ones, the apatosaurus?, were very weird to me. I loved the ankys! The pteranodons and their partners were boring as they were from the third movie. I was so disappointed not to see any brachios! The T-rex...I was so excited to hear that she was from the first park. Once she came out I was like, "Aww shit, shit's going to go down!" it did. I did not expect the mosasaur to be the I-Rex's killer at all. That one completely flew by me. I didn't even know they were that close for it to snatch it.

Overall, the movie was okay. There was certainly no dark buildup to it. I wonder why Williamns never came back for the movie? His music made the movie.

Here's a personal rating:

Humans 4/10

Dinos 8/10 only because of Rexy

Plot 5/10 mostly because the whole story died with I-Rex. JPIII had the Spino survive.

CGI/Effects 6/10

Rushed? Yes

Overall Rating 7/10
