Coming Attractions- Jurassic World Rebirth

 

Director- Gareth Edwards

Release Date- July 2, 2025


The Jurassic World era is strange. Jurassic World 2015 is still the best in the World series, and nothing really comes close. Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt shared excellent chemistry together, Vincent D’ Onofrio  played an entertaining jerk, and the Indominus Rex was a great antagonist. Fallen Kingdom had a more emotional story. Still, it’s a weak follow up sequel overall, and the reveal for the  Indoraptor and everything that followed it was kind of disappointing. Dominion? Good nostalgia boosts from Sam Neill, Laura Dern, and Jeff Goldblum, but it’s too tamed and kind of dull for a film that features the premise of dinosaurs freely roaming around in the modern world. 

High hopes for Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali’s roles in the cast. Rogue One is still Gareth Edwards’ best film, but he’s also proven himself as a guy, who knows what he’s doing for big monster movies with Godzilla (2014). And I know suspension of disbelief is a thing, but after seven films, maybe you have to accept the fact that dinosaurs are just too dangerous to play around with at some point?
