This is an honest review

I as a really young child I found that Jurassic park would be my most favourite movie to this date . It brought the world of Dinosaurs to reality nothing CGI can really create without looking somewhat unrealistic. The Jurassic park theme song still makes me think of my childhood innocence to this date and the dinosaurs were something out of this world. The story worked extremely well even though it scared me and the actors had chemistry and were believable in there roles. When the movie ended I felt empty inside but at least there was 2 (an ok film bit unbelievable) and 3 (good story but quite stupid at bits) so these did not satisfy me in my search for another movie so when I heard another one was going to be released I was very excited it was like Christmas for me .

Although despair came over me when I saw the trailer. The park had opened this was exciting for me until I saw all the futuristic nonsense but I was still hopeful for the dinosaur and my first glimpse was the velociraptors and when I saw them in CGI I knew with the cheesy lines I wasn't hopeful but I still saw the movie in hopes .

There was only 2 things that made me happy and "a little spoiler"

1 when the tech guy wore a Jurassic park T-shirt

2 when the kids come upon the old building with the old Jeep Wrangler and my favourite thing when I was really young the night vision goggles. That made me remember the good old movie.

For the rest of the movie it was tourists on there phones tweeting dinosaurs #jurrasicworldreview

A really dumb romance which I won't spoil and some dumb , punk kids where one is a rip off of the little boy from the first movie ( the one who knew everything about dinosaurs) and his older brother

Who at the start we see him have a girlfriend but when he goes on vacation he is looking at other girls ( so that happened ) and they both seemed they couldn't get out of trouble.

Also the movie completely ruined the name of the scary , viscous ,gonna kill you , smarter than human velociraptors who where the scary bad guys in the first film which I loved about them but know kids won't have nightmares about them :-( .

This movie in respect it just feels like if Disney bought the rights to it made a child friendly movie then pumped out the plastic toys.

It in my opinion was worse than the 3rd movie

A not see if you are a Jurassic park fan wanting to see something like the first one

And if a parent of a kid who does want to see it then show them the first movies

I'm sick of people referring to this one as the original.
