jurassic world (2015) film review by david l. $money train$ watts - futurxtv & funk gumbo radio -...
DESCRIPTION
The slogan for the Steven Spielberg produced and Colin Trevorrow directed Jurassic World (2015) could be “The Park Is Open And Only The Dinosaurs Matter”. That is because this fourth sequel from the Jurassic Park (1993), The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) and Jurassic Park III (2001) series has probably the least developed storylines for the actors. We really don’t know much or care much about the personal backgrounds of Jurassic World’s park operations manager Claire Dearing (Bryce Howard), heroic Velociraptor trainer and park ranger Owen Grady (Chris Platt), naïve, optimistic Indian billionaire Masrani (Irrfan Khan), manipulative and cruel secret military ops leader Hoskins (Vincent D'Onofrio), secretive and egotictical Hammond Creation Lab genetic engineer Dr. Henry Wu (BD Wong), caring and loyal control room technicians Lowery (Jake Johnson) and Vivian (Lauren Lapkus), serious and caustious covert Velici raptor handler Barry (Omar Sy) and Claire’s nephews the jaded and laid-back teenager Zack (Nick Robinson) and inquisitive and nerdy Gray (Ty Simpkins). The reason why we have many new faces to briefly bond with in Jurassic World is because the real focus and star of the film is the new genetically designed killer. As Jurassic World audience members we basically just want to eat popcorn and see how many people get killed and dinosaurs get killed by the new super predator called Indominus Rex. And we are told by Owen that the new dinosaur attraction in Jurassic World mercilessly killed its own sibling and has the human ability to kill other dinosaurs just for sport. This unnatural quality or trait of spree killing gives a serial killer aspect to Indominus Rex that can make Jurassic World the most expensive and highest grossing horror film.TRANSCRIPT

manager Claire Dearing (Bryce Howard), heroic Velociraptor trainer and park
ranger Owen Grady (Chris Platt), nave, optimistic Indian billionaire Masrani
(Irrfan Khan), manipulative and cruel secret military ops leader Hoskins
(Vincent D'Onofrio), secretive and egotictical Hammond Creation Lab genetic
engineer Dr. Henry Wu (BD Wong), caring and loyal control room technicians
Lowery (Jake Johnson) and Vivian (Lauren Lapkus), serious and caustious
covert Velici raptor handler Barry (Omar Sy) and Claires nephews the jaded and laid-back teenager Zack (Nick Robinson) and inquisitive and nerdy Gray
(Ty Simpkins). The reason why we have many new faces to briefly bond with in
Jurassic World is because the real focus and star of the film is the new genetically
designed killer. As Jurassic World audience members we basically just want to

new super predator called Indominus Rex. And we are told by Owen that the
new dinosaur attraction in Jurassic World mercilessly killed its own sibling and
has the human ability to kill other dinosaurs just for sport. This unnatural
quality or trait of spree killing gives a serial killer aspect to Indominus Rex that
can make Jurassic World the most expensive and highest grossing horror film.
Wait did I just call Jurassic World a big budget horror film? Yes, I did and that
is what it really is and why it is so damn mega-successful. Indominus Rex is an
18 foot Freddy, Jason and Michael Voorhies all rolled into one. We idolize and worship Hannibal Lecter on screen because he is and embodies the fear that
there are soulless human monsters so twisted and dark that it takes many
extraordinary efforts to catch, kill or defeat them. Just as it takes practically the

whole cast of Jurassic World devoted to 90% of the films screen time fighting Indominus Rex with rangers, Special Forces, helicopters and even Velociraptors.
We as a society are forever fascinated with evil spree killers, snipers or bombers
you see featured on almost every episode of CBSs Criminal Minded, CSI or HBOs True Detective type homicide themed dramas. We are watching Owen and Claire and the rest of the cast react as if they are being hunted and stalked
by a force that has no other purpose, but to kill them and everyone at Jurassic
World. The mass murderer in film or TV never has an off switch and that scene
is graphically displayed when we watch in the Jurassic Word control room the
life force signs of the park rangers die and go flat-line one by one as they each
never had a chance to stop this highly efficient prehistoric killing machine. And
even classic Jurassic scary predators like Velociraptors and the T. rex are pale in
comparison to the mayhem and bloodlust of Indominus Rex. And the super evil
killing machine is also intelligent enough to communicate with his Velociraptor
brothers to turn and make them attack their human handlers and then order the
Pteranodons Dimorphodons in the Aviation Cage to go attack all the 20,000
tourists in Jurassic World. The film treats Indominus Rex like an Ultron type
super villain who has a pack of evil flunkies or Minions that will do his bidding to
help him attack his enemies, kill human tourists and conqueror Jurassic World.
And in the end Claire says, We need more teeth to ultimately beat her own corporate created Jurassic World super attraction. And that means the former
threats of past Jurassic films the T. rex and Velociraptors have to work with
humans to take down this mega man-made monster. And luckily the Mosasaurus

at the end of Jurassic World jumps conveniently up out of its water enclosure and
heroically takes down the super-sized predator that no one else in the film could.
Jurassic World may end up 2015 becoming not only the number #1 box office film
in the world but all-time because in my expert opinion horror films still rule and
are cool. I happily give Jurassic World $$$$ and highly recommend go see it now.
