Very much a film of two halves, this starts with an intriguing question: the volcano on the Dinosaur's island is about to blow, so what do you do?

Do you save the 'de-extinct' Dinosaurs (who are only 'alive' because of man's intervention, or is this nature's way of course-correcting (as Jeff Goldblum's Dr Ian Malcolm puts it).

With the government falling in with Dr Malcolm's Point of view, (Bryce Dallas Howard's) Dr Claire Dearing (now a Dinosaur's Rights activist, following the events of Jurassic World) and (Chris Pratt's) Dinosaur behaviorologist Owen Grady find themselves back on the island to rescue as many of the Dinosaurs as they can.

And that's the first half of the movie.

The second half then turns into - effectively - a haunted house story as (of course) the Dinosaurs break out of containment in the Lockwood estate for story reasons (which I'm not going into here), before the film ends with the (metaphorical) gates to the Park now wide open.

The Billionaire Dragon Shifter’s Mate ( Grays Hollow Dragon shifters #1)
By Zoe Chant
⭐️⭐️⭐️

Curvy Cara Linley left her boring life in Iowa in search of adventure, but she only found loneliness in new and different places. She thinks there's no fairy tales left for a girl like her-- until she gets stranded on a mountainside, and a gorgeous hero comes to her rescue.

Billionaire dragon shifter Gus Gray has all the treasure a dragon could desire, but even his hoard of glittering gold has lost its shine, with no mate to share it with. Can an ordinary princess and a lonely dragon find their happily ever after?

It was ok for what it was! I was actually surprised at how well written it was and can’t help but think it more of this writers talent which she has for this genre went into the book it could have more story to it and be a little longer. So much potential!
