And while the human “monster” has been on display in all the “Jurassic” films to some degree, the baddies are brachiosaurus-sized compared with the ne’er-do-wells in the Steven Spielberg-directed “Jurassic” classic that started it all a quarter of a century ago. Unfortunately, following best practices, especially when the Operational Risk is off the charts, doesn’t make for a fun flick, so safety protocols were essentially Tyrannosaurus wrecked.
If the dinosaurs couldn’t break free, hunt, stomp and ram into things during the “Jurassic Park” movies, they’d be about as interesting as zebras getting some Z’s in a zoo, but in “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,” the latest installment in the post-Cretaceous chomp-com series- where the levity is often quite chewy- ineptitude and bad choices prevail. Plot: When the island’s dormant volcano begins roaring to life, Owen (Pratt) and Claire (Dallas Howard) mount a campaign to rescue the remaining dinosaurs from this extinction-level event.
