Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) - Greg - 12-09-2018
You know what one of the top five grossing films of 2018 is?
You know what one of the dumbest films I've seen recently is?
Dear RAMPAGE, I take it all back. You were like Shakespeare compared to JU:FK.
And to paraphrase Chris McConnell from 'Roxanne' "I knew it was going to be dumb. But I didn't think it was going to be this dumb"
Woohoo, boy this is a bad one. I think I wore a hole in my head scratching it at the dumbness. And it was extra long to add in more dumbness.
I think the scene that encapsulates it best is when the young girl runs to her bedroom to hide from the super intelligent genetically modified dinosaur. And in order to be completely invisible to the predator, she jumps into bed and throws the covers over her head.
So, the island of Isla Nubar has a volcano that is going to exploded and destroy all the dinosaurs left on the island. Of course for the volcano to destroy the island it would have to be the largest volcanic eruption ever. An enterprising henchman to a billionaire offers to rescue the dinos and bring them to an all new sanctuary. But he's evil so he does evil things. Basically all the dinosaurs end up at the billionaires house where mayhem ensues.
Most of the film was "Hey wouldn't it be cool if we did X" "But that makes no sense" "But it would be cool!" "Green light"
At least they put Ms. Howard in sensible shoes for all her running.
The only person of any merit was Franklin the computer tech. Franklin spent most of the movie screaming and questioning his life choices.
After seeing this film I question mine.

Prometheus is still #1 for the best-looking, stupidest film of our Epoch. This might be #2, though. It started stupid and got dumber from there.
