If I had seen this film when I was 13, I would have absolutely loved it. At 22 years old, I still really liked this movie. I'm essentially still a kid at heart, so I had a pretty darn good time with Jurassic World.

In a sense Jurassic World is kind of a bad film. It's messy, cheesy, predictable, and kind of stupid. The script is weak and the dialogue will make you roll your eyes. Despite all of that, I still had quite a bit of fun and I am a fan of this movie. As an entertainment piece it really delivered for me. It's very exciting and fun to watch. There's a lot of really solid action set…

The movie leans too much on dinosaurs being cool and Chris Pratt being likable and cool, the writing is really lackluster. The plotting of the two kids is some lazy second-hand Spielbergism.

The CGI looks great when the camera holds still, but the shots are constantly fast-panning during the action, making the screen a blurry mess. Several scenes seem to be there mostly to have stills of Chris Pratt looking good in front of a motorcycle, on a motorcycle, with a gun, etc.

It also has a dearth of solid female characters when compared to the original. In the original, Laura Dern played a scientist who was attractive but not sexualized, in this it's Bryce Dallas Howard, a neglectful ice…

Jurassic World, directed by Colin Trevorrow, took me completely by surprise. Both a massive expansion of the original seeds planted by Jurassic Park and a supremely entertaining summer ride, Jurassic World thrives on the grand ideas woven within the franchise's DNA. And just like the obligatory new dinosaur, Jurassic World looks and feels like a hybrid. The result is a film of unevenness and odd subplots, always ready to jump to another quip or in-your-face statement.

And yet, this summer blockbuster transcends it all. Once the shit hits the fan, Jurassic World is as immensely satisfying and FUCK YEAH spectacular than anything that I've seen in quite awhile. It all comes together into a dinosaur epic that works precisely because…

“That is one big pile of shit”
Thanks Jeff.

Oh boy. 
This was definitely my least favourite. 

It’s not a terrible film but that’s about it for the positives.

I quite like Safety Not Guaranteed, its quite a charming little sci-fi rom-com, I don’t think Colin Trevorrow is a BAD director. 

However.

It was not good. At all.
It was kinda bad actually.

Firstly, this film is incredibly boring. Mainly because there aren’t really any characters. You know that thing that Park did so well?
I was kind of struggling to not skip bits of this, they were either predictable or bland.

The characters are...
*sigh
The two leads are just not good at…
