In case you haven’t seen the intro from my entry dated
1/26/19 (it’s in my archives whenever you want to read it), I’m no longer going
to review every single movie I see. I’m going
to review one, with the occasional bonus, and just give ratings for the rest
from now on (unless I decide to pick it up again in the future). You can always ask me why I gave the ratings
for the films without reviews though (via comments or the e-mail addresses
under the ‘About Me’ section).

Jurassic World: Dominion EH/OK
Jurassic Park 6 or
Jurassic World 3? Either way it’s allegedly the conclusion of
the franchise, but we’ve all heard that before.
I hate to say it, but I hope this is the conclusion if this completely
disappointing entry is any indication.
For those of you that disliked Fallen
Kingdom, which really wasn’t that bad (you can read my review for it
here---https://vampireclown82.blogspot.com/2018/06/mooby-reviews-63018.html),
I’d be truly surprised if you think Dominion
is any better. As you may see, this is
what I wrote at the end of Fallen Kingdom’s
review---If the ending is any indication,
I think Jurassic Park 6 or Jurassic World 3 could be even better. Ha!
This is the only entry in the franchise I disliked (yes, I liked The Lost World) and I was really hoping
it would go out with a bang (considering some of the original Jurassic Park cast was involved; I doubt
any of them needed cash, but who knows in these times?). It took place in too many locations (I know,
logically it was supposed to, but it didn’t work) much like a big, dumb, loud
action movie, which this mostly was, and that’s not a compliment. It felt like a substandard sci-fi flick at
times too (what were those locusts doing in a dinosaur movie?!). There also seemed to be too many talky scenes
(when we see a movie about dinosaurs taking over the world, we want to see just
that…dinosaurs attacking people and causing havoc). Granted, there were some passable scenes
involving dinos (which is why I reluctantly added the OK to the rating), but
not enough to make this entry not feel like the franchise overstayed its
welcome, and ‘overstaying ones welcome’ usually just means that it sucks; if
the entry was actually good, you wouldn’t say that it overstayed its
welcome. This franchise deserves to
become (ahem) extinct.
Unfortunately. Maybe the upcoming
(July) season five of Camp Cretaceous
will be decent…6/10/2022
Other movies I've seen and their ratings (see above):
Ghosts of the Ozarks >>>OK
The Grizzlies >>>OK
King Knight >>>EH
Knocking >>>OK
(In Swedish with
subtitles)
Master (2022) >>>OK/G
(Amazon Prime)
Rhymes for Young Ghouls >>>EH
The Stairs >>>EH
