Jurassic World is exactly what you would expect – a templated script, an obvious storyline and some darn fine special effects. And there’s plenty of references to the previous films from a decade ago to create links rather than try to ignore the fate of the previous theme park (although it’s not crucial to have seen these earlier films).
Enjoyable within its own set limits, Jurassic Park is already one of the most successful films of all time and will undoubtedly launch the careers of stars Chris Pratt (The Guardians of the Galaxy) and Bryce Dallas Howard (The Help) somewhere into the stratosphere.
