Jurassic World: Dominion (3 Stars)

I've waited a long time before buying this film. I only bought it this week because the seventh film in the Jurassic Park franchise has just arrived in the cinemas. I need to catch up before I go to see it. "Jurassic World: Dominion" should have been the final film as the third film in the second trilogy. That would have meant the franchise ending on a whimper, not a bang. It's the weakest film in the franchise, despite its success at the box office. Maybe people only flocked into the cinema because they'd enjoyed the previous instalments so much.

The trouble with "Dominion" (please excuse me for shortening the title) is that it's drifted too far away from the initial premise. Back in 1993 "Jurassic Park" was all about people running away from dinosaurs. Put like that, it sounds like a primitive idea, but it was a great film in the capable hands of Steven Spielberg. Most of "Dominion" has the form of a spy thriller, chasing someone who's using dinosaur DNA for his own devious purposes.

Okay, I watched it today, but I feel reluctant to ever watch it again. I hope the next film is better when I go to see it at the weekend.
