Me and the wife just got back from the special 7pm IMAX pre-screening of this movie. Let me take a moment to catch my breath and calm down so I can type this review semi-legible. First of all, here is my reaction after the movie...
...I'm still smiling from ear to FREAKIN' ear after what I just saw. WHAT A MOVIE! Jurassic Park was probably the first movie that I saw as a youth (well teen really) that stood with me for a while. Lots of people had Star Wars and Star Trek and those defined their childhood movie love...Jurassic Park was mine. I got so enveloped in it that I had to see it like 10 times in the theater (back with movies stayed in the theater for more than a few months, lol!)
So I had very VERY little hope this movie was going to live up to my expectations of at least the first movie (the 2nd one was ok, the 3rd, unfortunately, was not very good at all to me, but I still loved it because it was part of the series).
Boy was I completely and totally WRONG.
If it weren't for the nostalgia of the first movie, Jurassic World would be the king of the series right now...it was THAT good.
***SPOILERS BELOW***
The movie just balances so much goodness that it's hard for me to pick singular parts to reflect on...Chris Pratt was absolutely fantastic in his role, the trained raptors were simply bad ***, the 2 brothers in the movie had GREAT chemistry and really lived up to the same kind of character Lex and Tim had in the first movie...really, the only people I didn't care for were Bryce Dallas Howard's character, the boys mom and the indian guy who was like the CEO, but that was a very small complaint amongst very good acting from everyone else.
The action sequences with the new hybrid T-Rex were incredible! That thing was RELENTLESS! And you really got a feel of the mutant nature of that monster...especially when it attacked other dinosaurs. They definitely created something different there, and it was quite scary honestly!
The park looked beautiful! There was so much to see in the movie from the time it starts to the moment it ends...and the end sequence, JESUS CHRIST don't let anyone spoil it for you. Satisfaction overload...lol! It was just so bad *** I had goosebumps and CHEERED after it ended!
***END SPOILERS!!!***
...overall, I'll be seeing this movie probably 3-4 more times at least...if for no other reason than to see the reaction of the people watching it.
EASILY the best movie I've seen as an adult, and I've seen A LOT of movies, lol. It's just so so good I can't stop smiling.
They did the franchise justice with this movie, and I cannot WAIT for another one.
