Jurassic World Dominion

Colin Trevorrow directs the latest installment in the behemoth franchise that is Jurassic Park.

We find a world where dinosaurs now live amongst us, but all is not well as man and nature struggle to adapt. This is made worse when a plague of giant locusts start to devour crops around the United States. Drafted in to examine the “plague” is Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) she realises she needs help and hunts down her old Jurassic Park adventurer Alan Grant (Sam Neill). Meanwhile we find Maisie Lockwood (Isabella Sermon) still living alongside Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) and Owen (Chris Pratt) who are protecting her from anyone who wants to do her harm. However, when Maisie is kidnapped alongside a baby raptor, Claire and Owen set off in pursuit. Meanwhile Ellie and Alan have discovered a genetics company maybe behind the locust plague and need access to their facility in Italy to prove it. Luckily they have help on the inside by way of Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum). So, off everyone sets on a jet setting adventure to save Maisie and the world.

Yes Dominions plot is as silly as it sounds, it’s a bit like Jurassic Park meets James Bond with a sprawling chase across the globe. Which includes bad guys and a world domination fixated organisation head in his secret lair. Oh and of course we have dinosaurs, old favourites as well as bigger and badder newcomers.

But for all of its big, brash, loud action, and incoherent plot. I really enjoyed it. Yes it’s silly and makes no sense, but I didn’t mind. It was like someone had decided if this was a closing chapter to the story, they’d take everything they could think of and throw it on the screen. To be honest I enjoyed its madness and commitment to it!

Jurassic World Dominion is some kind of dinosaur, James Bond cross. It throws anything it can think of on screen and adds dinosaurs to it. Yes it’s a mess and too long. But you’ll either go with it or you won’t. I did and had a good time doing it
