Jurassic World Rebirth Review
A Perilous Mission
A profit-hungry pharma firm sends a team to an uncharted isle to collect blood from the last prehistoric giants, starting a high-stakes survival thriller.
The New Crew
The film introduces former operative Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) and paleontologist Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey), who lead the dangerous expedition.
Back to Basics
Director Gareth Edwards and writer David Koepp ditch the silliness of recent sequels, emulating the tense, human-centric spirit of Spielberg`s 1993 original.
Creature Carnage
The movie unleashes terrifying new hybrids like the six-legged Distortus rex alongside old favourites, delivering spectacular and jolting monster action.
Underdeveloped Humans
While the dinosaur set-pieces are thrilling, the human drama feels secondary. Supporting characters, including a rescued family, often feel like mere dino-bait.
Johansson Leads the Pack
Scarlett Johansson delivers a solid performance as the tough-as-nails Zora, though she is frequently upstaged by the awe-inspiring prehistoric beasts.
Visual Spectacle
Cinematography stunningly captures the island`s menacing beauty and the grandeur of the dinosaurs, though some moments of uneven CGI slightly mar the illusion.
Stirring Soundtrack
Alexandre Desplat’s score effectively blends dread and wonder, while the immersive sound design makes every roar and footstep feel terrifyingly immediate.
Relentless Pacing
The film maintains a thrilling pace, skilfully balancing heart-pounding action sequences with brief moments of calm, ensuring viewers remain gripped throughout.
A Worthy Watch?
A worthy watch for fans of monster mayhem. It prioritises spectacle over deep characters but successfully reboots the franchise with unadulterated fun.
