Caught Jurassic World tonight... Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Just OK. Definitely not the sense of awe and wonder I got with Jurassic Park (yes, I know that would be difficult to do). The movie really just felt like a big re-tread. I assume they were going for an homage to the original, but most of it came across as "been there, done that". Dying brontosaurus = sick triceratops. Hoskins = Nedry. More kids in peril. etc. etc.
And wtf about the parents' divorce? Talk about a weird plotline that was just dropped.
I liked Pratt OK, but really liked Jake Johnson in it. He was the one real redeeming part of the movie for me.
I enjoyed Mad Max and Ant-Man waaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Jurassic World.
