I saw Jurassic World LAST night...

[yuiyoshida]

Can I say, that in my humbled opinion, I was disappointed. That is all...

[Auggie]

1. I saw it today and I agree. Great CGI ...

but it was either missing a lot of the fun Spielberg touches or else I feel like I've seen it all before.

2. My sister said it was mediocre too.

4. I have hated all of them... I don't plan to get tricked this time

6. I was a huge fan of

Michael Crichton who was the author and creator of Jurassic Park. His other books were stunning as well. When I heard they were making the first movie, I was very much excited, and expected it to follow the book, but of course it didn't as many of Hollywood writers change things around because of what they think the audience will like, and not like. I can't say I was that disappointed in the first movie, and grew to like it, on its own merritt. The second book came out,(I had heard grumblings that Michael Crichton reluctantly wrote it..) and they used parts of the first and second book and strung them together. I thought the second movie was "okay" and like most sequels, was not as good as the first. By the time the third movie came out, they basically forced Michael Crichton to write it...as I heard He really didn't want to. He was the kind of writer, who once he broached a subject, and did it well, He didn't wish to repeat it with sequels, but reluctantly did the job, knowing how badly Hollywood can screw things up and make him look bad!

I won't talk about this latest movie,(Crichton was dead so there never was a fourth book) as people haven't seen it yet. I would suggest if anyone is half way interested, it be far better to rent it from Netflix or watch it on HBO. I would not want to spend another 15 to 20 dollars to see this movie...even on the IMAX screen.

5. Darn

7. I watched 1:41 of it on YouTube - it ended before the film did. I thought it was better than

formulaic despite the drawbacks of a YouTube video with poor audio shot in a movie theater.

8. I must (respectfully) disagree

I thought it was an incredibly entertaining and surprisingly kid friendly movie. Took my son the day after it released and he won't stop talking about it. I loved every moment of the film, it was paced just right. And now I am trying to get my wife to wear her hair like the redhead did.

9. i liked it as well

I never expected going in that it would be a epic film. just hoped it would be fun and entertaining, and to me it was

[redwitch]

10. I thought it was fun.

And I loved the ending! It was just the right amount of campy, an homage to Japanese King Kong/Mothra films. I liked it.

12. Who did?

13. Relevancy of animal behavior is their second salvation

[yuiyoshida]

14. I don't know what this has to do with

The New Jurassic Park movie, maybe you can explain, other than putting up obscure videos?

[seveneyes]

17. Reality hides behind obscurity

[yuiyoshida]

19. Um okay...

have a good day

[seveneyes]

21. Peace. Still digging deeper into reality than required ...

[progressoid]

15. I did too!

It was OK.

My advice. Wait for the DVD at the library.

[yuiyoshida]

16. It will probably be on Cable TV before than

or on netflix. But yeah, not worth the 15 dollars, IMHO.

[progressoid]

18. Only $7.50 here

Still too much. Thankfully my wife had a gift card to the theater so no big loss.

[yuiyoshida]

20. California and especially in the City

of San Francisco, everything is expensive here... movies will be up to 20 to 25 dollars soon...given the time.

[RebelOne]

23. I'll wait until it is available on RedBox for $1.25. n/t

24. Saw it last night.

I loved it! I've been a big fan of this series. This one did not disappoint for me. I really enjoyed it.

[BlueStater]

25. I saw it yesterday. I liked it a lot.

I don't get why the dinosaurs are blue now but aside from that I have no complaints.
