Movie Rating - 8 out of 10 Family Rating - Not suitable for young children as more gore than before and frightening images of stalking dinosaurs and erupting volcanoes. The strength of a good adventure movie is to have you sitting on the edge of your seat even when you know that the main characters will survive their present danger. Jurassic World did that for me. Whether it was surviving face to face encounters with salivating dinosaurs or escaping from the clutches of bad guys in all sorts of incredible ways I still found myself tense and holding my breath. The story for this episode of the Jurassic story takes place four years after the theme park was destroyed and humans abandoned the island. The situation has arisen where a dormant volcano is threatening to end all life on the island. A decision has to be made whether to let the dinosaurs deal with the natural disaster or try to remove them from the island. The Government says let them die but an opportunity is provided to rescue them and move them to a new sanctuary funded by one of the original founders of Ingen, Benjamin Lockwood. This movie restores an important part of the original Jurassic Park theme by adding a child to the story in Benjamin's granddaughter Maisie Lockwood. The use of children ramps up the intensity of the threat level and a scene with her being stalked by the Indo-raptor (the new baddie dinosaur) will create many nightmares. While on the subject of children my recommendation is that parents should think twice before allowing young primary children to watch this as there is more unsettling images and visible gore as the dinosaurs take out the baddies bit by bit. And of course, this would not be a Jurassic movie without human baddies seeking to make money or gain power from the dinosaurs themselves. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, as Owen and Claire, carry this movie again and apart from Maisie, there were no great additions to the cast, none that lived to appear in the next movie anyway. The reappearance of Blue, the trained Velociraptor, and T-Rex provides a continuation of some popular dinosaurs. The appearance of a young Pachycephalosaurus (look it up) is the only addition of a likable dinosaur, while most seem intent in damage and destruction. This storyline contains enough differences to distinguish it from the other movies in the franchise and provides new settings for the whole dinosaur experiment to go wrong. The movie ends with lots of open questions, especially around Maisie's origins and mankind's future relationship with dinosaurs, sufficient to encourage discussion amongst the family and work colleagues about which direction it will take. I have to say I will be eagerly looking forward to the next episode. 8 out of 10
