22 years ago, John Hammond envisioned a theme park where guests could experience the thrill of witnessing actual dinosaurs. Today, Jurassic World welcomes tens of thousands of visitors, but something sinister lurks behind the park's attractions: a genetically modified dinosaur with savage capabilities.

If I were eight years old, this is a movie I would want to see every day, if possible multiple times. From the perspective of two brothers, it is perfectly placed in an adventurous mood, to the extent that it doesn't even need the breathtaking wow moments the original Jurassic Park is known for, even after the tenth screening. On the contrary, the world in this movie is conservatively sparse on action, and even when it is clear to everyone involved that everything is going to hell, the central T-Rex surprisingly appears sparingly. I can even imagine there might be viewers who are bothered when the screenplay can't decide whether to pay a beautiful tribute to the original or blatantly remake it. But fortunately, there are more positive aspects. Chris Pratt, who shamelessly steals every scene like a thief, Bryce Dallas Howard, who finally has a full-scale blockbuster on her resume, and the final message that plays on the feel of the Steven Spielberg original. But what raises my spirits the most is the fact that audiences still yearn for spectacles that occasionally shoot off nostalgic warmth.

An excellent tribute to the first film, from the opening panorama, through the helicopter arrival, to references to the eccentric millionaire. Fortunately, Jurassic World doesn't steal, but rather duplicates the functioning and adds design thanks to a twenty-year evolution in technology, making the dinosaur action even more intense and dense, with an excellently depicted and well thought-out park. The acting also works great, and although it may not be as confident and iconic as Spielberg's film, it is at least a decent beta that won't offend either the wallet or the brain of the viewer.

I like how the entire Jurassic World is referring to the good old Jurassic Park. It’s not hiding the reference and it’s not attempting to be just another embarrassing remake. On the contrary, it expands the entire dinosaur world and that’s actually quite a good thing. And even though the main plotline is about an over-grown and mutated dinosaur, which actually isn’t too great a premise to build a movie on, it still watches pretty well. The authors did a great job in terms of casting. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard are exactly the reason why I really enjoyed the movie. Chris Pratt plays his standard cool dude who looks like he just crawled out of the jungle and who can communicate with every mammal on the planet, and Bryce Dallas Howard is so beautiful here that I will keep dreaming about her fringe for several months to come.

A very pleasant surprise and the best sequel to Jurassic Park so far. Trevorrow takes a sensitive approach and present Hammond’s original vision and the whole spiel about raising profits works just great. With the kids’ storyline (much less annoying than you might think) for a classic family feeling. And also taming the raptors that made it onto the poster. Chris "Starlord" Pratt returned to his role from Zero Dark Thirty and his marine/medic is a very good central figure for the whole story with the anticipated involvement of B. D. Howard, who shakes off her corporate shell maybe too quickly. They could have left out her running in high-heels. The dinosaur scenes are not as terrifying as before and its meant to be pure blockbuster entertainment for all age groups. The megafights between species to find a master of the dinosaurs is a pleasure to watch. Effects are mostly fine, but are sometimes spoiled by minor details that a bit more work could have put right. Even so, I enjoyed Jurassic World incredibly and it’s one of those movies that I look forward to watch again some time. Not just a few selected scenes, but all in all good, clean fun. P.S.: Williams’ theme presented by Giacchino still works well.

A perfect contemporary studio film, pitch-perfectly refined to fit almost everyone's taste. The stars have "just the right" luminosity, Spielberg behind their backs, special effects artists at work, and a scripted cocktail of everything a family wants to experience on a trip to the movies. The studios will fight over Trevorrow now because we rarely see such pure craft. The unfortunate thing is that it doesn't give anything for free. Therefore, especially in terms of tension, it's pretty instant, without anything really substantial, like "climbing over a high-tension fence" or "raptors in the kitchen," which still affects me after more than twenty years and can refer to someone who has something in their head besides craft. [Btw: Chris Pratt is likable, no question about it, but his position is more so iconic, pushed by an army of e-fans. When he really carries an entire film, let him have the whip and the hat.]
