A tiring first half followed by a banger second half.
I could easily see the vision of Gareth Edwards very much. Like how he wants to explore the human emotions having the element of mutated dinosaurs as the main plot.
I really wished this had been a 3 hr film with more exploration of the world like Kingdom of the planet of the apes. But instead the film's just 2hrs and in that you just take a whole hour for just the world-building and character-building that too is not focused on hardcore emotions and just very childish and cliched.
Like the portions of Humour at the first half didn't work even for a bit and the scenes were dragged as hell like at a point u lose hope with the film. Even the mosasaurus sequence felt a little underwhelming.
But just after the interval, the film took a very exciting turn. They just introduced a mutated titanosaurus with such visual grandeur. I was just shook by the visual treat in that sequence. Wow. Brilliant. Then came the thrills and intensity. The film was so engaging like a edge-of-the-seat thriller. The emotional sequences felt good in the second half. The visuals were so amazing in the second half. The Cinematography was top-notch in the film. The classic score was great. The editing was good.
Thank god they remembered that colour palette exists in the second half atleast. Cause the yellow colour grading with blue and red palettes were a outstanding visual endeavour.
The acting performances were great most of the time and cliched and okayish some times. Simping for Scar Jo made the first half tolerable for me.
Better than Dominion. Can't be compared with any other film in the Jurassic universe.
If u ask me am I excited for the sequels, my answer is no.
If u ask me is it worth to view this film in the theatres, i would say just for the visuals you can watch. But still consider watching it in 2d cause 3d is very bad. I only wish they ban 3d. It makes the visuals dark as hell.
I still can't believe they thought they could outrun Superman and Fantastic Four.
The VFX was fine but still the T-Rex movement felt very bizarre. The screenplay should have been a lot better.
Just take like 4 years in building a great screenplay and storyline and making the film and then release it. Don't rush everything just for continuing the universe for some money-sake.

Q: How to fuck up the legacy of OG Jurassic Park?
A.
By keeping on making mindless and senseless spin offs after spin offs which offer nothing, boring and only made for cash grab.
