“Jurassic World: Dominion”: a visually spectacular conclusion to a weak story

multiple scenes Jurassic Park: Dominion Colin Trevorrow is a direct homage – and a lesser quality one – to Steven Spielberg’s original film. Especially in the first part, in which the film is supposed to be about a world where dinosaurs are part of the ecosystem.

Or rather, a clear and constant threat in a world that suddenly discovered that there is a predator for a person. The premise, which seems to combine the six films of the saga into one plot, is ambitious. But it also fails because it cannot cover all the topics it is trying to cover.

This is despite the fact that the script by Emily Carmichael and Colin Trevorrow reimagines the franchise in terms of ecology and dynamics. But this is not enough when trying to tie together at least three different narrative threads.

The result is a set of spectacular scenes – the improvement in the visual part is noticeable – and unnecessary explanatory dialogues.

All in an emphasis on nostalgia, which at its worst is hard to ignore. Particularly when the plot makes an inexplicable decision connect the past with your new vision on the topic in the game unnecessary references.

If something is missing Jurassic World: Dominion this is efficiency of previous deliveries. More specifically, the ability of both to delve into seemingly insane ideas with no small sense of ingenuity. The third installment in the franchise’s most recent trilogy has a slightly apocalyptic tone rather than a closing one. Indeed, the point of most of the argument is that almost disastrous ending. But since that doesn’t happen – not completely – the overall feeling is that the film is incomplete. Or, at least, that much of his path took more time – or development – to be understood.

Jurassic Park: Dominion complex double mirror

Trevorrow runs the risk of completely changing entire episodes of the original trilogy. Do this using a set of familiar faces and with the clear intention of bringing all the productions together in a coherent way. But rewriting Spielberg is perhaps a noble goal, not to mention making a rushed story that needs to cover dozens of situations at once. Trevorrow fails but Jurassic Park: Dominion It maintains much of its premise in a sense of respect without permission. A persistent resource that he uses halfway through is almost always clumsy and without much brilliance for most of the story.

Four years after the events described in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdomthe world has changed under weight of the new variety. And one, as Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) would say, is inevitable. What seemed like an inevitable journey for the saga has happened. Dinosaurs are part of ecosystems. Rather, they are struggling to find their place. The nuance is important at the moment when Jurassic Park: Dominion must rethink reality.

Uchronia “what would happen if …”, raised from Jurassic Park Spielberg’s idea is fulfilled in its entirety. But Trevorrow fails to formulate a coherent idea at all. about this new reality. It shows the risks, dangers and even living conditions of new beings. But he fails to establish how his existence – or at least his weight – affects the world.

The argument is more interested in showing the great beasts now being born out of the control of the human hand. A diverse, monstrous and frighteningly beautiful world – there are at least two scenes worthy of a horror movie – it’s much more realistic and accurate. But he also takes the risk of playing with all sorts of colossal creatures designed to feast on the camera rather than the script. Time and time again, Trevorrow makes decisions that benefit the visuals while the script collapses in confusion.

Dinosaurs will rule the earth… but not this time

Without a doubt, the film’s biggest appeal lies in how it managed to combine the main storylines of the previous six films. And he achieves this by half, showing that the presence of Alan Grant (Sam Neil), Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) and Ian Malcolm (Goldblum) is necessary. Not just to structure the idea that what happens in the story is a consequence of the original park’s first big failed experiment. At the same time, use his experience as a driving force and a filter to understand how the film deals with the threat. Developments Jurassic Park: Dominion they come from everything that was left out and neglected in the first part, at least that’s what the plot suggests. So to end your tour, the voices of the three experts are very important.

The point in favor of the script is not to present the dinosaurs – far more numerous in race and size than has been seen so far – as a mechanical threat. They are actually animals with an expanding habitat. There is a lot of definite environmental dilemma in the idea of ​​protecting your life, despite the danger they pose. But the film fails to complete or even support the premise of anything more enduring than the idea of ​​saving or killing creatures as dangerous as they are uncontrollable. Both Owen Grady (Chris Pratt) and Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) are clearly driven by this idea. Although the perception of this nature is out of control, the result of human incompetence and aggression, is a message below everything else.

Especially when it seems that the conflict is focused on zones, and not at the level that one would expect in the event of a natural disaster of this kind. Or, there are sequences that refer to what happens with a similar disaster in urban areas. In fact, everything takes place in the open air, when herds of terrifying, but curious natural creatures roam. Jurassic Park: Dominion wisely avoid scenes in which dinosaurs are not shown as a violent natural phenomenon. So even though the movie raises the possibility that dinosaurs might become more dangerous at some point in the future, that point is not shown in the movie.

Jurassic Park: Dominion this isrelevant and entertaining tour for the highest scores in the franchise. And while the announced domain of the artificial race is not coming, it may be a prelude to what will come later. Or, at any rate, he leaves the door open to possibility.
