It's not even about feminism really, it just isn't funny.
Thanks for the movie/island refresher, gents.

They were so preoccupied with whether they could make a fourth "Jurassic Park" movie, they didn't stop to think if they should.
also, how do you get DNA for an aquatic species? Finding mosquitoes in amber is hard enough, but finding DNA of a sea creature?
Leeches?
I still say meh to the "critics" I've heard great things about Entourage, it was given 20% rotten, but 80% liked by the audience...
Y'all know how I feel about this franchise, so maybe I'm jaded... But y'all also know how I feel about critics...
A movie to me is like a bottle of wine... Someone had to plant the grapes, harvest them, put the work in to get it into a bottle, then selling it, not all wine is great, but it's worth appreciating someone's hard work that was out into it. Like movies, people worked hard to entertain y'all...
But that's just like my opinion

I guess I can understand where this snobby, nose-in-the-air charicature opinion of critics comes from, and way many of you feel the way you do about critics, but it's such a stereotypical view. The ones I follow and trust in WANT each and every movie they see to be good. They're fans. They don't go into movies looking to pick them apart. Most of their critiques are usually valid, and again, come from a place of wanting the movie to move them in some way. And just because hard work goes into something doesn't mean it should get a free pass. It's possible to critique something AND appreciate the hard work that went into making it.
Oh I agree about just cause you put hard work in it's going to be great, I just appreciate the good wine with the bad so to speak...
Put plot holes or something that just doesn't seem on point in my opinion is what makes some movies great... Cause without those things I would feel like this is just a movie about real life... People see movies like this an Star Wars to escape reality, like a good book can transfer you to another place... If I wanted to read a book about real life, I'd write one myself, but I go in expecting to be whisked away to somewhere else
And in the end it's science fiction, it's just fun... I think it's why reasons like sharknado do so well, or those other sci if movies, they aren't blockbusters, but people just like to be entertained

Peter Travers of Rolling Stone has a positive review up. That at least makes me hopeful. Don't know how the rest of you feel about him but he's a critic I tend to agree with.
Oh and I didn't try to compare critics to snobby wine people....
I like to compare thibgs to what it takes to make a bottle of wine, cause it's a lot of hard work... And not all wine is good, so I try to appreciate the good wine as muh as the bad because some put a hell of a lot of work to making it.

Somehow he didn't comment on the special effects, but more that the script was horrible. I hope for everyone's enjoyment that he's wrong.

45 minutes in West Houston. Fiance usually goes to bed at like 8 since she's up at 430 every morning. Convinced her to stay up!
Let us know what y'all thought about it later tonight! I'm not going until Saturday
Yeah curious to read a few reactions tonight. Not seeing it 'til Friday night.
10:35 Saturday morning but I'm sure we'll have some reviews before then. This for some reason is my wife's favorite franchise. Every time ANY of these movies is on she has to stop down on them.
She's pumped!

Just got home from the theater. Overall a little disappointed. This movie is definitely more violent/gory than the others. I agree that the cheese factor was pretty high. LOTS of throwback scenes to the original.
It definitely exceeded my expectations going in, despite a few minor plot holes and a little hokey-ness here and there because dinosaurs are awesome! I would also say more jokes hit than missed by the reaction of the theater. I am admittedly a huge JP fanboy so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Overall I really liked it and the group I was with all thought it was really good too!
The final showdown was worth the price of admission.
Such an odd feeling watching this movie. It's a sequel, but felt like a reboot of the original.
I wish they would have had some kind of mention on how they managed to get Jurassic World opened up after the disaster of the original park 20 years earlier.

Just got back, myself. First blockbuster first viewing I've been to here in BFE Iowa in approx. 9 yrs now that was overflowing packed.
It was a great summer flick. Not going to win any oscars for acting, but it's a freaking DINOSAUR movie.
Oh, and if your kid and/or wife/GF can't SHUT.THE.F?CK.UP. please...don't take them to any movie, but especially not a packed house, opening night movie. Stupid chick behind and to the right of me kept muttering "Oh sh/t!" at every turn and the kid on the other side of behind me kept talking about what dinosaur it was, or what whatever joke they said meant. Came close to ruining it for me.
