Reviews & comments
Variety
press“Fallen Kingdom” is an improvement, but it’s the first “Jurassic” film to come close to pretending it isn’t a ride at all, and as a result it ends up being just a passable ride.
Total Film
pressAfter a first half that suggests franchise fatigue is setting in, Fallen Kingdom zooms in for some scarily good set-pieces.
Time Out
pressThis fun, pacy addition to the dino disaster franchise doesn’t do much that’s particularly new – though what it does, it does with a fair whack of panache.
The Telegraph
pressThe film staples together two snazzy-sounding ideas... without considering whether the end product’s sheer snarling hideousness might just prove an intelligence-insulting turn-off.
The Guardian
pressThere are some reasonably entertaining scenes and set pieces, but the whole concept feels tired and contrived...
Stuff
pressThe script is too silly, too obviously ticking the boxes to ever give Bayona the opportunity to really turn the screws and take our breath away.
Hollywood Reporter
pressBayona not only nods to the histories of classic monster movies and the legacy of original Jurassic helmer Steven Spielberg; he brings his own experience to bear...
Empire Magazine
pressThis is a Jurassic sequel that plays it both adrenaline-pumpingly huge and thrillingly small.
BBC
pressJurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is good old-fashioned summer entertainment, and it does a cunning job of setting up the next instalment.
