‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’ Blu-ray Review
Stars: Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jeff Goldblum, Ted Levine, James Cromwell, Toby Jones, B.D. Wong, Rafe Spall, Daniella Pineda, Geraldine Chaplin, Kamil Lemieszewski, Justice Smith, Peter Jason | Written by Colin Trevorrow, Derek Connolly | Directed by J.A. Bayona
“Oh, yeah, ooh, ahhh, that’s how it always starts – then later there’s running and screaming.” That’s the philosophy behind every movie in the Jurassic Park franchise, summed up in a nutshell by Jeff Goldblum’s Dr Ian Malcolm in The Lost World (1997). The latest addition to the franchise – a sequel to 2015′s Jurassic World and the fifth instalment in the series overall – sticks closely to that basic formula, while simultaneously trying to make things a little different this time round. Unfortunately, when it comes to provoking both wonder (the oohs and ahhhs) and terror (the screams), there’s a definite sense that the franchise has been hit by the law of diminishing returns.
