Jurasic World

Jurassic World - starring Chris Pratt & Bryce Dallas Howard.  The events in Jurassic World take place 22 years after the events of "The Lost World".  The island has morphed into a theme park giving guests an up close look at the prehistoric dinosaurs.  In an effort to keep the park new and relevant, the parks geneticists decide to push the envelope and come up with a new dinosaur that will keep people coming to the park.  Unfortunately, they pushed too far and came up with a creature they find they can no longer contain, that's when the fun ensues.  It's a fun summer action film, I would't put it in the category of the first 2 movies in the series though.  Chris Pratt's acting seemed to consist of him scowling and looking angry, it's probably the first role I've seen him in that I didn't particularly like.  Bryce Dallas Howard seemed a bit stiff in her role too.  The dinosaurs were also surprisingly underwhelming, I thought they were much better in the first two films.  It's definitely worth a watch, don't get your expectations too high though.

I'll give it 3 out of 5 stars (*****)
